TVV Group
Components
• Peripheral Component Interconnect
• from 1 up to about 6 slots on a motherboard
• run at 33Mhz and normally 32bits
• support plug and play
PCI Slots
TVV Group
Components
• Industry Standard Architecture
• connect internal peripherals such as modems and network cards
• run at only a 8Mhz maximum
ISA Slots
TVV Group
Components
• group of integrated circuits
• divided into different parts
• each part provide specific functions
Chipset
TVV Group
Components
• links the motherboard to the CPU(s)
• built around the pin grid array (PGA) architecture
CPU Socket
TVV Group
Components
• Complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor
• gives the board a small amount of power
• store some vital data (e.g. time, date, settings, etc)
CMOS
TVV Group
Components
• 2 PS/2 connectors: for mouse and for keyboard
• same size, same shape, different colours
• not interchangeable
PS/2 Connectors
TVV Group
Components
• connect external components
• change the devices without switching the power off
USB Ports

IV - History
TVV Group
History
• In 1947 the first transistor was invented
• CPU, memory and I/O peripherals were housed on individual PCBs
• In 1980s, motherboards began to include single ICs
• At present, motherboards support a full range of audio, video, storage, and networking functions
