What does SEPP mean in this article? Please could you add a note to SEPP explaining this and disambiguate the link in the article if you know? Lupin|talk|popups 13:55, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

"the silicon core is facing up and the heat slug is exposed" i think you will find that the core is facing downwards with its contacts against the package. the exposed part is the reverse(substrate) of the core.

dose anybody agree or can anybody suggest an alternative wording

This article is very Intel-centric, with only a couple mentions of AMD or other chip makers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.183.199.83 (talk) 15:06, August 28, 2007 (UTC)


 * That is because the FC-PGA package was designed by Intel. AMD used the CPGA and OPGA packages.   ANDROS1337   15:09, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Can I use a FC-PGA2-socket processor on a FC-PGA-socket motherboard? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.236.245.170 (talk) 13:54, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * From memory, FC-PGA2 is just a revised FC-PGA package with an integrated heat spreader, so the answer is yes, if your motherboard supports the processor in question. Rilak (talk) 14:00, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Keep article in place, rather than merging and redirecting it
I propose this article remain in place and be expanded, rather than being merged and redirected to Pin grid array at this time. While they're similar topics, they're also specifically different in many ways. Northamerica1000 (talk) 22:49, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Even textbooks on IC packaging run through all the various types of PGA in one place. It would be a better presentation of the subject matter to the reader if all the PGA varieties were discussed together. These are tiny stubs, they'd be stronger as a unified whole. --Wtshymanski (talk) 23:18, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
 * You know what, after consideration, I have changed my mind. I've merged information from this article to the Pin grid array article. Northamerica1000 (talk) 01:22, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
