What is the base plate socket?
The motherboard socket contains virtually all connectors or interfaces of the computer, as well as the type of central socket (CPU) called Socket A. Created by an Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and debut in 2000, is also known as the Socket 462 because it has 462 capped as part of the support system (PC) (PC). which serves as part of the support system (PC) (PC), is also known as the Socket 462. The socket is one of the many functions of the base plate socket that acts as a "Heart" PC. Socket A serves as a connector between the processor and the motherboard so that data can be transferred. It also provides CPU protection and prevents it from damaging when the user inserts or removes it.
The base plate socket has a length of about 2.2 inches (5.59 centimeters) and a width of about 2.6 inches (6.55 cm). The holes for the pins are arranged properly along its square -shaped structure; This is called the PIN (PGA) grid field. The base plate drawer falls under the subcategoryPGA called Organic Pin Grid Array (OPGA), which means it is made of organic plastic. Most motherboard sockets observe the standard advertising standard (ZIF). This means that the user does not have to use any power when placing the processor on or remove it.
The motherboard tab is most often associated with the support of the XP/MP Athlon Chips from AMD. However, they are also compatible with the Duron brand, which was AMD's low-end line and was introduced in the same year because the Socket A. compatibility was extended to the Sempron brand when it replaced Duron in 2004.
There are certain specifications related to the base plate socket. The AMD processor must have a data transfer speed of 200, 266, 333 or 400 Megahertz (MHz), which means it must be able to carry out 200, 266, 333 and 400 million transfers per second (Mt/s).The socket also runs on an operating range of 1 to 2.05 V).
By the end of 2004, AMD began to move from the base plate socket when it started using the 754 and 939 sockets for Athlon and Sempron chips. However, computer components still create components. The base plate socket also retains its superiority with the NX geoda.
