What socket has pins aligned in uniform rows around the socket?

I believe if you are talking about older, tube electronics, what you have in mind is a Loctal socket. these were made for tube-era equipment of the standard miniature type, an Octal ( octo meaning eight) had eight elements- loctal meant ( Locked, or maybe Localized) octal. the sockets had eight points but were arranged so tubes having say five points ( Pentodes) or Heptodes ( 7) could be plugged in in sort of a one-size=fits all uniform arrangment. as one can guess this service advantage made sense to the armed forces- quick substitutions could be made in the field- or at or under the sea- ( Submarines favored tube equipment for this reason) spares could be changed during lengthy underwater patrols when of necessity- the sub was observing radio silence! one door closes, another opens. that is the most logical explanation. why don"t you get some of the early Tube related stuff from the Lindsay catalog- they aim at historical hobbyists! Oddly this was NOT called a Universal socket- maybe the movie company ( Universal pictures) complained.

What Pentium Socket had pins aligned in uniform rows around the socket?
PGA socket - Pin grid array
What is the difference between a PGA socket and an SPGA socket?
The PGA socket has pins on the bottom of the package aligned in uniform rows. The SPGA socket has pins on the bottom of the package that are staggered to squeeze more pins into a small space.
What is the difference between a PGA scoket and an SPGA socket?
Earlier Pentiums used a pin grid array ( PGA ) socket, with pins aligned in uniform rows around the socket. Later sockets use a staggered pin grid array ( SPGA ), with pins staggered over the socket to squeeze more pins into a small space.
What is the difference between a SPGA socket and an PGA socket?
The PGA socket has pins on the bottom of the package aligned in uniform rows. The SPGA socket has pins on the bottom of the package that are staggered to squeeze more pins into a small space.
How many pins does the Intel socket B have and what is the name for this socket?
The Intel socket B has 1366 pins. It is also called LGA1366
Is it possible connect AM2 CPU to socket A anyhow?
No. They both have totally different pin sizes and amount of pins. Socket AM2 has a lot more pins, socket a has 462 pins.
How many pins on socket am3?
It depends on the type of AMD processor. The current AM3 generation has 938 pins.
How many pins the Intel socket B have?
The Intel socket B (also called LGA1366) has 1366 pins.
How many pins does the Intel Socket B have?
The Intel socket B (also called LGA1366) has 1366 pins.
How many pin in Intel Pentium 3?
That depends upon the socket type the processor was made for. The Pentium 4 was released in three socket types: # Socket 423 (423 Pins) # Socket 478 (478 Pins) # LGA775 (775 Contacts) Note: in the case of the LGA775 the processor does not have pins. Instead it has contacts, while the socket actually has pins that connect to the contacts on the processor.
How many pin have socket 5?
Socket 5 has 320 pins
What is the difference between PGA and LGA?
LGA : Land Grid Array <== pins are in the socket, no pins are attached on the CPU, only pads. PGA: Pin Grid Array <== pins are attached on to the socket, the socket has some sort of "holes" that hold the processor
