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.

Slot 2
<hardware, standard> A physical and electrical specification for the
330-lead edge-connector used by some of Intel's microprocessor cards, currently
(August 1999) the SECC Pentium III/Xeon.
Slot 2 is intended for use in high end multi-processor workstations and servers.

Slot A
<hardware> The physical and electrical specification for the
edge-connector used by AMD's Athlon processor.
The connector allows for a higher bus rate than Socket 7 or Super 7. Slot A
motherboards use Compaq's EV6 bus protocol. Slot A is mechanically compatible
but electrically incompatible with Intel's Slot 1.
