I have a hardware device called a motherboard, a motherboard (or so-
called mainboard, systemboard, logic board, baseboard or mobo) is a printed circuit board (PCB) that acts as a backbone on a computer, because the motherboard provides an electrical connectivity called a bus so that all components and external devices on the motherboard can be connected.
he functions The role of the motherboard as a computer spine is not
unreasonable, because the motherboard has a variety of functions. In addition to its main function is as a medium that holds the components on the computer, the motherboard also serves to set the basic input / output system (BIOS) on the chip read-only memory (ROM). The BIOS code is a firmware, which the firmware will not lose even if the computer is off and also can not be changed by normal operating system or application software.In addition, when you look at the motherboard there is a collection of slots that allow the use of components or external devices that can increase the flexibility of the computer itself. The device in question is the printer, keyboard, mouse, audio jack, external hard disk, or game stick. The device can be connected to a computer by connecting it directly to the motherboard using the ports that have been provided.
The AT motherboard was a type of motherboard first introduced by IBM
in August 1984, then widely used in the 1980s. This type of motherboard has a size that is quite large that is 12 x 13.8 inches, size large enough that will not fit on the mini desktop. Another version of the AT motherboard is the Baby AT Motherboard which has a smaller size of 8.5 x 13 inches. But nowadays AT / Baby AT motherboards have been very rarely used, and have been replaced by newer types of motherboards lik
