Block diagram of a basic computer with uniprocessor CPU. Black lines indicate control flow, whereas red lines indicate data flow. Arrows indicate the direction of flow. In computer science and computer engineering, computer architecture is a description of the structure of a computer system made from component parts. [1]
Dell Precision T3600 System Motherboard, used in professional CAD Workstations. Manufactured in 2012. A motherboard (also called mainboard, main circuit board, MB, base board, system board, or, in Apple computers, logic board) is the main printed circuit board (PCB) in general-purpose computers and other expandable systems.
Motherboard diagram, created in 2007, which supports many on-board peripheral functions as well as several expansion slots. The functionality found in a contemporary southbridge includes: [8] [2] PCI bus. A south bridge may also include support for PCI-X. Low speed PCI Express (PCIe) interfaces usually for Ethernet and NVMe. ISA bus or LPC ...
The motherboard is the main component of a computer. It is a board with integrated circuitry that connects the other parts of the computer including the CPU, the RAM, the disk drives (CD, DVD, hard disk, or any others) as well as any peripherals connected via the ports or the expansion slots.
Comparison of some common motherboard form factors (pen for scale) A PC motherboard is the main circuit board within a typical desktop computer, laptop or server. Its main functions are as follows: To serve as a central backbone to which all other modular parts such as CPU, RAM, and hard drives can be attached as required to create a computer
A block diagram is a diagram of a system in which the principal parts or functions are represented by blocks connected by lines that show the relationships of the blocks. [1] They are heavily used in engineering in hardware design , electronic design , software design , and process flow diagrams .
ITE Super I/O chip (IT8712F) SMSC™ (now Microchip) Super I/O chip (FDC37M813) on IBM motherboard Super I/O (sometimes Multi-IO) [ 1 ] is a class of I/O controller integrated circuits that began to be used on personal computer motherboards in the late 1980s, originally as add-in cards , later embedded on the motherboards.
