An IT technician is selecting replacement hardware specifications for an enterprise server platform. The organization mandates a CPU socket design where the socket pins are located directly on the motherboard motherboard surface rather than on the processor package itself, minimizing the risk of damaging processor pins during field replacements. Which CPU socket architecture meets this specific requirement?
- APin Grid Array (PGA)
- Land Grid Array (LGA)Cevap
- CBall Grid Array (BGA)
- DZero Insertion Force (ZIF) PGA
Cevap
Land Grid Array (LGA) places the socket pins on the motherboard, while the CPU package has landing pads.
Land Grid Array (LGA) architecture places the spring-loaded contact pins directly inside the motherboard socket. The processor package itself features flat conductive contact pads (lands), eliminating the possibility of bending processor pins during handling or socket installation.
