V System Board Form Factors
As with power supplies, each system
board design layout is known as a form factor.
While not all computer systems fit the categories listed below, most
do. Starting with the largest design, it is time to examine
the AT.
Depending on the case
design, several different form factors may
be used when creating a system board. In
late 1984, IBM released the PC- AT, featuring an 80286 CPU. Because
of all the electronics involved, the system board was BIG, over a square
foot of systemboard. The original AT power supply
had inverted L- shape to accommodate space
for the system board.
