    Abstract: A circuit board assembly includes at least one circuit board having a plurality of conductive layers, the at least one circuit board having a first face and an opposite second face. A first chip socket on the first face is positioned opposite of a second chip socket on the second face. In one example, each chip socket can receive a processor. The first and second chip sockets may be arranged in a mirrored fashion with respect to one another, or an overlapping but non-mirrored fashion. In any such arrangements, as fasteners are tightened to fully seat first and second chips respectively installed in the first and second chip sockets, forces applied to the first chip effectively neutralize or otherwise reduce opposing forces applied to the second chip, thereby reducing circuit board deflection.

    Abstract: A configurable processor module includes a central processing unit (CPU) package mounted to a CPU substrate, which may be mounted to a circuit board substrate. The CPU substrate may include physical resources usable by the CPU package, which may not be included or duplicated on the circuit board substrate. As such, features of the CPU package that are unavailable on the circuit board substrate may be available on the CPU substrate. Additionally, the CPU substrate and physical resources may be selected and designed so as to provide varying levels of functionality across different compute devices that use the same type of CPU package.
