A 'motherboard' implies that other smaller circuit boards (usually cards) can be optionally attached to a main board, such as in a desktop computer. Like a mother and children.

A mobile phone, because it is very small, usually has a single circuit board with the all components hard-soldered; 'motherboard' is not really the correct terminology.
