Socket 7
<hardware, standard> A physical and electrical specification
for the {x86 processor socket} matching the pins on {Pentium}
{microprocessors} manufactured by {Intel}, and compatibles
made by {Cyrix}, {AMD} and others. Any {CPU} chip conforming
to this specification can be plugged into any conforming
{motherboard}.
Supported processors include: 2.5V - 3.5V {Pentiums} 75-233
MHz, AMD {K5} through {K6}, Cyrix {6x86} (and MX) P120 - P233.
Socket 7 uses a {SPGA} socket, either a 296 pin {LIF} or a 321
pin {ZIF} arranged as 37x37 or 19x19 (depending on who you
speak to!).
See also {Super 7}.
Intel's {Pentium II} processor uses {Slot 1} mounting.
