The motherboard is considered as the main
circuit of the computer, it contains the connectors for attaching additional
boards. Typically, the motherboard contains the CPU, BIOS, memory, mass storage
interfaces, serial and parallel ports, expansion slots, and all the controllers
required to control standard peripheral devices, such as the display screen,
keyboard, and disk drive. Collectively, all these chips that reside on the
motherboard are known as the motherboard's chipset. You must familiarize the motherboard parts and its function since this is needed to pass the TESDA NC II Computer Servicing Exam.
