A 20 % shorter variant of the ATX form factor. Compatible with most ATX cases, but has fewer slots than ATX, for a smaller power supply unit. Very popular for desktop and small form factor computers as of 2017. Mini-ATX: AOpen: 2005 150 × 150 mm (5.9 × 5.9 in) Mini-ATX is considerably smaller than Micro-ATX.
The maximum size of a microATX motherboard is 9.6 × 9.6 in (244 × 244 mm). However, there are examples of motherboards using microATX designation despite having a smaller size of 244 × 205 mm (9.6 × 8.1 in). [4] [5] The standard ATX size is 25% longer, at 12 × 9.6 in (305 × 244 mm).
Other standards for smaller boards (including microATX, FlexATX, nano-ITX, and mini-ITX) usually keep the basic rear layout but reduce the size of the board and the number of expansion slots. Dimensions of a full-size ATX board are 12 × 9.6 in (305 × 244 mm), which allows many ATX chassis to accept microATX boards. The ATX specifications were ...
Mini-ATX motherboards are a smaller form factor of the ATX motherboards. It typically uses surface-mount technology for component placement, solid state capacitors to ensure stable power delivery, and an 8-layer PCB design to increase durability and longevity. This design is aimed to provide a better overall performance and reliability compared ...
Comparison of the form factors for motherboards ATX, μATX (micro-ATX), DTX, mini-ITX and mini-DTX The DTX form factor is a variation of ATX specification [1] designed especially for small form factor PCs (especially for HTPCs) with dimensions of 8 × 9.6 inches (203 × 244 mm). [2]
Comparison of some common motherboard form factors (pen for scale) Form factor is a hardware design aspect that defines and prescribes the size, shape, and other physical specifications of components, particularly in electronics. [1] [2] A form factor may represent a broad class of similarly sized components, or it may prescribe a specific ...
FlexATX is a motherboard form factor derived from ATX.The specification was released in 1999 by Intel as an addendum to the microATX specification. It uses a subset of the motherboard mounting holes required for microATX and the same I/O plate system as ATX and microATX.
