The processors have 940 pins, but the AM2 slot on motherboards has 942 pin slots.
For your question, 940 is the answer. A lot of tiny easy to bend pins..
It depends on the type of AMD processor. The current AM3 generation has 938 pins.

No. The AM2 socket was designed by AMD in 2006 as a follow up to the popular 939 socket. Intel Processors will not fit into a AM2 Socket.
A. AM2 B. AM2+ C. AM3 D. Socket 940
The AM2 socket, introduced by AMD in 2006, supports DDR2 SDRAM memory. This socket is designed for use with AMD's Athlon 64, Athlon 64 X2, and Opteron processors, allowing for dual-channel memory configurations. DDR2 memory modules compatible with AM2 typically operate at speeds ranging from 533 MHz to 800 MHz.
An AM2 Socket is a type of socket used by a Processor on a motherboard. These are AMD processors, as indicated by the "AM". When you buy a motherboard and processor you must make sure that they have the same socket and that your motherboard supports the processor you have chosen.

you will need to get pin count between your mobo and the processor you want to use Ok thank you, both are 940 pin AM2+ sockets are backwards compatible with both AM2 and AMD2+ processors. While AM2 sockets should be able to accept any AM2+ processor as well as AM2 CPUs, this usually is dependent on a BIOS upgrade of the system first, and many manufacturers have not provided such support.
I want a motherboard which is compatible with this CPU amd athlon 64 5200 dual core am2 Socket processor
Yes, the NF-MCP61 is an AM2+ compatible motherboard, which means it supports AM2 and AM2+ processors. It is part of NVIDIA's nForce 610 chipset series, designed to work with AMD's socket AM2 and AM2+ CPUs. When choosing a CPU, ensure it falls within the compatibility range of this motherboard for optimal performance.
An AMD Athlon 64 Limited Edition energy-efficient 45W, 2.6 GHz, Socket AM2 processor.
Each motherboard possesses certain socket type, for instance, from Intel LGA 771, LGA 775, Socket 478, 604, Socket M and P, for AMD Socket 754, 939, 940, AM2, AM2+, Socket F and socket S1. Thus, when you are going to buy a motherboard you have to have or buy a CPU with the same type of socket. A CPU with one type of socket will not fit another type of socket!
It's Socket AM2, so any socket AM2 motherboard with latest bios should host it. The link below is AMD's product detail page. http://products.amd.com/en-us/DesktopCPUDetail.aspx?id=33&f1=AMD+Athlon%E2%84%A2+X2&f2=&f3=&f4=&f5=&f6=&f7=&f8=&f9=&f10=False&f11=&f12=
