PROJECT ABSTRUCT:

Motherboard:
A motherboard is one of the most essential parts of a computer system. It holds
together many of the crucial components of a computer, including the central
processing unit (CPU), memory and connectors for input and output devices. The
base of a motherboard consists of a very firm sheet of non-conductive material,
typically some sort of rigid plastic. Thin layers of copper or aluminum foil, referred
to as traces, are printed onto this sheet. These traces are very narrow and form
the circuits between the various components. In addition to circuits, a
motherboard contains a number of sockets and slots to connect the other
components.
MAIN CONTENT :

MOTHERBOARD
 Motherboard is the heart of any personal computer.

 It provides system resources interrupt request (IRQ lines), DMA channels, and Input
Output locations).

 Support the core components such as CPU, chipsets &Real Time Clock (RTC).

 It handles all system memory includes SD-RAM, BIOS RAM, CMOS RAM
Types of Motherboard
1. AT Motherboard
These motherboards have bigger physical dimensions of hundreds of
millimeters and hence they are not the right fit for the mini desktop
category of computers. Bigger physical size also inhibits installing new
drivers. Sockets and six-pin plugs are used as power connectors in these
motherboards. These power connectors are not that easily identifiable
and hence users face difficulties in connecting and using it
2. ATX Motherboard
extended, it was developed by Intel ATX denotes Advanced technology during the
1990s and it was an improved version over an earlier version of AT motherboard. It
is smaller in size when compared to AT and it provides interchangeability of the
connected components. There is a marked improvement in the connector aspects.
3. LPX Motherboard
This board had two improvements over earlier versions. The first one is

Input and Output ports were taken to backside and the second one was

the introduction of Riser card to facilitate more slots and easier

connection. Some of these features were deployed in the AT motherboard.

The main disadvantage in this board is the lack of Accelerated Graphic

Port (AGP) slots which led to a direct connection to PCI. Issues in these

motherboards were addressed in NLX boards.

4. BTX Motherboard
BTX denotes Balanced Technology Extended, intended to manage

demands of new technologies in terms of more power requirements hence

generation of more heat. Intel stopped further development of BTX boards

during the mid-2000s to concentrate on low power CPU.


5. Pico BTX motherboard
These boards are smaller in size and hence the word Pico. Two expansion

slots are supported in spite of being sharing the top half of BTX. Half-

height or riser cards are its unique features and it supports the demands

of digital applications.

6. Mini ITX motherboard


It’s a miniature version of motherboard over its earlier versions. Designed

in the early 2000s and its dimension is 17 x 17 cm. Mainly used in small

form factor (SFF) computer due to its lower power consumption and faster

cooling ability. This motherboard is the most preferred in the home

theater domain due to its lower level of fan noise that will improve the

quality of the theatre system.

Conclusion – Types of Motherboard

These motherboards have bigger physical dimensions of hundreds of millimeters

and hence they are not the right fit for the mini desktop category of computers.

Bigger physical size also inhibits installing new drivers. Sockets and six-pin plugs

are used as power connectors in these motherboards. These power connectors are

not that easily identifiable and hence users face difficulties in connecting and using

it.
