A motherboard is the central printed circuit board (PCB) in some complex electronic systems, such as a modern computer or laptop. It is also known as a mainboard, system board, and, on Apple computers, a logic board.[1] It is also sometimes casually shortened to mobo.[2]
Most motherboards produced today are designed for IBM-compatible computers, currently which hold over 95% of the global personal computer market.[3] A motherboard, like a backplane, provides the electrical connections by which the other components of the system communicate, but unlike a backplane, it also contains the central processing unit, other subsystems and devices, such as the chip set.
Motherboards are also used in robots and in many other electronics devices.
