Socket FS1b (rebranded as Socket AM1 ) is a socket designed by AMD, launched in April 2014 for desktop SoCs in the value segment. Socket AM1 is intended for a class of CPUs that contain both an integrated GPU and a chipset, essentially forming a complete SoC implementation, and as such has pins for display,

. All products are SoCs, this means the Chipset is on the die of the APU and not on the motherboard. While the AMD mobile CPUs are available in a 722-pin package Socket FS1, it is not clear whether these notebook CPUs are compatible with Socket AM1 or vice versa. Its mobile counterpart is Socket FT3 (BGA-769). At least one board is supported by coreboot.
