An ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) slot motherboard is a legacy computing platform that supports ISA expansion cards, which were prevalent in PCs during the 1980s and 1990s. ISA slots are characterized by their 8-bit or 16-bit bus architecture, providing a standard interface for connecting peripherals and expansion cards such as sound cards, network adapters, and input/output controllers. ISA slot motherboards typically feature one or more ISA slots alongside newer expansion interfaces such as PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) or PCIe (PCI Express), allowing users to leverage both legacy and modern peripherals in their systems. While ISA slots have largely been phased out in favor of faster and more efficient expansion interfaces, ISA slot motherboards may still be used in specialized industrial, manufacturing, or research applications that rely on legacy hardware or software. These motherboards often feature basic functionality and compatibility with older operating systems, providing a stable platform for running legacy applications or controlling legacy equipment. Despite their limited compatibility and performance compared to modern motherboards, ISA slot motherboards remain relevant in certain niche markets where compatibility with older hardware is essential.
