(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.
