Zorluk: KolayCPU Architecture Cooling and Sockets

A system technician is replacing a processor on a desktop motherboard. The technician observes that the pins used to establish electrical contact are located directly inside the motherboard socket itself rather than on the bottom of the CPU package. Which CPU socket architecture is used on this motherboard?

  1. Land Grid Array (LGA)Cevap
  2. B
    Pin Grid Array (PGA)
  3. C
    Ball Grid Array (BGA)
  4. D
    Zero Insertion Force (ZIF)

Cevap

Land Grid Array (LGA) is the socket architecture that places the contact pins inside the motherboard socket.
Land Grid Array (LGA) sockets place the contact pins on the motherboard socket while the processor features flat landing pads on its bottom surface.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the distinguishing physical hardware feature described in the scenario
The contact pins are located on the motherboard socket rather than on the CPU package.
Different CPU socket architectures distribute pins and landing pads differently between the processor and motherboard.
2
Match the observed physical characteristic to the corresponding CPU socket architecture
Land Grid Array (LGA) uses socket-based pins that connect to flat pads on the CPU.
LGA design houses delicate pins in the socket to reduce the risk of damaging the CPU pins during handling.
