Flip Chip Pin Grid Array
FC-PGA

   <hardware, processor> (FC-PGA) The package of certain {Intel}
   {Celeron} and {Pentium III} processors.  FC-PGA processors fit
   into {Socket 370} {motherboard} sockets.

   The Flip Chip {Pin Grid Array} is similar to {PPGA}, except
   that the {silicon} {core} is facing up and the {heat slug} is
   exposed.

   FC-PGA packaging is used by Pentium III processors, and
   Celeron 566 processors onward.  Earlier Celeron processors
   used {PPGA} packaging.

   Celeron processors are also available in {Slot 1} {SEPP}
   packaging and Pentium III processors in Slot 1 {SECC2}
   packaging.

   Adapters are available to allow a PPGA Celeron to plug into
   a Slot 1 connector.
