  2. PCI Express - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express

    A PCI Express card fits into a slot of its physical size or larger (with x16 as the largest used), but may not fit into a smaller PCI Express slot; for example, a x16 card may not fit into a x4 or x8 slot. Some slots use open-ended sockets to permit physically longer cards and negotiate the best available electrical and logical connection.

  3. CPU socket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_socket

    In computer hardware, a CPU socket or CPU slot contains one or more mechanical components providing mechanical and electrical connections between a microprocessor and a printed circuit board (PCB). This allows for placing and replacing the central processing unit (CPU) without soldering.

    A typical 32-bit, 5 V-only PCI card, in this case, a SCSI adapter from Adaptec A motherboard with two 32-bit PCI slots and two sizes of PCI Express slots. Work on PCI began at the Intel Architecture Labs (IAL, also Architecture Development Lab) c. 1990. A team of primarily IAL engineers defined the architecture and developed a proof of concept ...

  5. Riser card - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riser_card

    A riser card inside an IBM PS/2, featuring MCA slots Motherboard of an IBM PS/ValuePoint personal computer model (c. from 1993 to 1995) with an Intel i486SX microprocessor, with an elongated connector (black, horizontally in the middle/left between upper and lower edge) for the riser card on which the ISA bus slots were located

  6. Socket sTRX4 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socket_sTRX4

    While Socket SP3 doesn't require a chipset, instead utilizing a system-on-a-chip design, Socket sTRX4 and its predecessor require a chipset to provide improved connectivity and functionality. For Socket sTRX4, the TRX40 chipset was developed, which provides a total of 88 PCIe 4.0 lanes, [ 4 ] an increase from the 66 PCIe 3.0 lanes on its ...

  7. Mobile PCI Express Module - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_PCI_Express_Module

    Mobile PCI Express Module (MXM) is an interconnect standard for GPUs (MXM Graphics Modules) in laptops using PCI Express created by MXM-SIG. The goal was to create a non-proprietary, industry standard socket, so one could easily upgrade the graphics processor in a laptop, without having to buy a whole new system or relying on proprietary vendor upgrades.

    On April 2, 2020, the Compute Express Link and Gen-Z Consortiums announced plans to implement interoperability between the two technologies, [16] [17] with initial results presented in January 2021. [18] On November 10, 2021, Gen-Z specifications and assets were transferred to CXL, to focus on developing a single industry standard. [19]

  9. System Management Bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Management_Bus

    In both those protocols there is a very useful distinction made between a System Host and all the other devices in the system that can have the names and functions of masters or slaves. In the context of motherboard PCI Express slots, the PCIe Electromechanical Specification expects ARP to be provided for the SMBus pins. However, because ARP is ...
