Slot 1
<hardware, standard> The physical and electrical specification
for the connector used by some of {Intel}'s {microprocessor}
cards, currently (August 1999) the {SEPP} {Celeron} and the
{SECC} {Pentium II}.
Slot 1 is a departure from the square {ZIF} {PGA}/{SPGA}
sockets used by {Pentium} and earlier processors, the
processor being mounted on a card, with a 242-lead
edge-connector.
The Slot 1 specification allows for higher {bus rates} than
{Socket 7}. Slot 1 motherboards use the {GTL+} {bus
protocol}.
See also {Slot 2}, {Slot A}.
