    The document discusses the key components of a motherboard, including the central processing unit (CPU), CPU socket, chipset, expansion cards, printed circuit board, sound card, graphics/video card, battery, and connectors. The CPU is the most important processor that executes computer program instructions. The CPU socket contains mechanical and electrical connections that allow replacing the CPU. The chipset manages data flow between the CPU, memory, and peripherals. Expansion cards add functionality by plugging into the motherboard.

    3Components Of Motherboard: Motherboard consist of 20


    components.but 10 main components are discussed here.

    Name of components are given below.

    1. Central processing unit


    2. Electrical connector
    3. Parallel port
    4. Chipset
    5. Computer memory
    6. BIOS
    7. Electric battery
    8. Printed circuit board
    9. CPU socket
    10.Expansion card
    11.Integrated circuit
    12.Peripheral Component Interconnect
    13.Input/output
    14.Southbridge
    15.Northbridge
    16.Sound card
    17.Video card
    18.Computer port
    19.AGP
    20.SATA connector
    1.CPU Central processing unit:

    A central processing unit —also called a central processor or main


    processor—is the most important processor in a given computer. Its
    electronic circuitry executes instructions of a computer program, such as
    arithmetic, logic, controlling, and input/output operations.
    2.CPU socket

    In computer hardware, a CPU socket or CPU slot contains one or more


    mechanical components providing mechanical and electrical connections
    between a microprocessor and a printed circuit board. This allows for
    placing and replacing the central processing unit without soldering.
    3.Chipset
    In a computer system, a chipset is a set of electronic components on one or more
    ULSI integrated circuits known as a "Data Flow Management System" that
    manages the data flow between the processor, memory and peripherals. It is
    usually found on the motherboard of computers.

    4.Electric battery

    A battery is a source of electric power consisting of one or more electrochemical


    cells with external connections for powering electrical devices. When a battery is
    supplying power, its positive terminal is the cathode and its negative terminal is
    the anode.

    5.Expansion card

    In computing, an expansion card is a printed circuit board that can be inserted


    into an electrical connector, or expansion slot on a computer's motherboard to
    add functionality to a computer system.

    6.Printed circuit board


    A printed circuit board is a medium used to connect electronic components to
    one another in a controlled manner. 

    7.Sound card

    A sound card is an internal expansion card that provides input and output of
    audio signals to and from a computer under the control of computer programs.
    The term sound card is also applied to external audio interfaces used for
    professional audio applications.

    8.Floppy-disk controller

    A floppy-disk controller has evolved from a discrete set of components on one or


    more circuit boards to a special-purpose integrated circuit or a component
    thereof. An FDC directs and controls reading from and writing to a computer's
    floppy disk drive. 

    9.PCI Express

    PCI Express, officially abbreviated as PCIe or PCI-e, is a high-speed serial computer


    expansion bus standard, designed to replace the older PCI, PCI-X and AGP bus
    standards. 
    10.Video card

    A graphics card is a computer expansion card that generates a feed of graphics


    output to a display device such as a monitor. Graphics cards are sometimes called
    discrete or dedicated graphics cards to emphasize their distinction to integrated
    graphics processor on the motherboard or the CPU.

    4.Identify connectors located outside of system unit


    Connectors:
    A connector is a device that joins two pieces of equipment, wire, or piping
    together.
