 **Motherboard** (also called **mainboard**,​ main circuit board, system board, baseboard, planar board, logic board, or mobo) is the main printed circuit board (PCB) in general-purpose computers and other expandable systems. It holds and allows communication between many of the crucial electronic components of a system, such as the [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​c:​cpu]] and memory, and provides connectors for other peripherals. Unlike a backplane, a motherboard usually contains significant sub-systems,​ such as the central [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​p:​start|processor]],​ the chipset'​s input/​output and memory controllers,​ [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​i:​interface|interface]] connectors, and other components integrated for general use. **Motherboard** (also called **mainboard**,​ main circuit board, system board, baseboard, planar board, logic board, or mobo) is the main printed circuit board (PCB) in general-purpose computers and other expandable systems.
