Intel Microprocessor Chips
notes: label: Description
content: This is a set of five Intel 22 nanometer tri-gate quad core microprocessor dies. These chips belonged to Intel’s Ivy Bridge line of microprocessor architecture, mainly sold in the Core i5 and Core i7 lines of processors. After the wafer has been cut into dies, the chips are packaged with electrical connections and heatsinks and are ready to be used. These Intel chips would be put in a land grid array (LGA, seen in the second image) package that has a grid of electrical contacts on the bottom that comes into contact with the socket pins on a printed circuit board (motherboard).
