Motherboard (Technology is epoxy & three layered)

Motherboard is the main circuit board of a computer. The motherboard 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.
