母板vs Processor
In electronic devices, especially in computer hardware, the motherboard is the main printed circuit board that carries the infrastructure of the whole system. On the other hand, the processor is a semiconductor chip that processes information in digital form.
母板
Mother board provides the basic architecture to the whole system; therefore, the most important component in any of the electronic devices. It is also known as the mainboard, system board, planar board or logic board. In modern devices, this is a printed circuit board (PCB). Whether the system is a personal computer, a mobile phone, or a satellite a mother board is there.
支持工作所需的系统的所有组件都得到了支持,并通过主板互连。以某种方式通过不同的连接器和接口连接了所有关键组件,例如CPU,内存和输入设备。扩展插槽连接内部组件和通信端口连接外部设备。
Computer motherboards are designed and manufactured nowadays in many varieties, to support different processors, memory, and also specialized software. However, based on the basic outlay they are divided into two categories. Those are AT and ATX system board categories. AT is further divide into full and baby categories. ATX is the later version introduced by the Intel and integrates the serial and parallel ports on the motherboard.
Main components of the system boardsare as follows:
Communication ports: the external devices are connected through the communication ports. (USB, PS2, Serial and parallel ports)
SIMM AND DIMM: Single In-Line Memory Modules (SIMM) and Dual In-Line Memory Modules (DIMM) are the two types of memory used in the motherboards.
Processor Sockets: the microprocessor used as the Central Processing Unit (CPU) is connected through this port.
ROM: ROM include the Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) chip, and Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS)
External Cache Memory (Level 2): Cache memory; many processors offer an integrated cache, though some motherboards have additional cache.
Bus Architecture: the network of connections that allows the component in the board to communicate with each other.
Processor
微处理器, commonly known as the Processor, is the Central Processing Unit of the system. It is a semiconductor chip that process information based on the inputs. It is able to manipulate, retrieve, store and/or display information. Every component in the system operates under the instructions directly or indirectly from the processor.
第一个微处理器是在发现半导体晶体管后于1960年代开发的。模拟处理器/计算机足够大,可以完全填充房间,可以使用该技术将缩略图的大小微型化。英特尔于1971年在1971年发布了世界上第一个微处理器4004。此后,它通过推进计算机技术对人类文明产生了巨大影响。
There are several classes of the Intel microprocessor designs for computers.
386: Intel Corporation released the 80386 chip in 1985. It had a 32-bit register size, a 32-bit data bus, and a 32-bit address bus and was able to handle 16MB memory; it had 275,000 transistors in it. Later i386 was developed into higher versions.
486, 586 (Pentium), 686 (Pentium II class) were advanced microprocessors designed based on the original i386 design.
What is the difference between Motherboard and Processor?
•主板是为系统组件提供基本基础架构的电路。每个设备都通过此主电路通信。(它支持所有端口和扩展插槽以连接内部和外部组件)
•处理器是一个半导体芯片,作为the operation/processing center for all the information in the system. It basically executes a set of instruction to get a desired outcome. It has the ability to manipulate, store and retrieve information in the system.
