CPU socket
A
CPU socket or
CPU slot is an
electrical component that attaches to a
printed circuit board (PCB) and is designed to house a
CPU (also called a
microprocessor). It is a special type of
IC socket designed for very high pin counts. A CPU socket provides many functions, including providing a physical structure to support the CPU, providing support for a heatsink, facilitating ease of replacement (as well as reducing cost) and most importantly forming an electrical interface both with the CPU and the PCB. CPU sockets can most often be found in most
desktop and
server computers, particularly those based on the
Intel x86 architecture on the motherboard.
