Sound Card

 
Up to Glossary

The term 'sound card' historically refers to the physical component of a computer responsible for audio playback and recording, specifically in the form factor of a card that plugged into a slot on the motherboard. Modern usage of this term indicates any type of audio hardware, whether in the card form factor or integrated directly as a chip on the motherboard.
