Socket 563 is a microPGA CPU socket used for low-power (16 W and 25 W TDP) Athlon XP-M processors ("Thoroughbred" & "Barton"; Models 8 & 10).[1][2] Socket 563 was also reportedly used for the "Appaloosa" Duron processors, which were never officially released but did see some very limited circulation.[3][4][5][6] This socket is usually found in laptops and requires a low-power mobile processor in a special 563-pin µPGA package which is different from the Socket A (462 pin) package used for other Athlon processors.[7] Socket 563 supports 32-bit CPUs only.

Only a few desktop computer motherboards were manufactured that had Socket 563 sockets. Motherboards equipped with Socket 563 include the PCChips M863G Ver3[8] (actually manufactured by ECS) and the ECS K7SOM.[9] Both motherboards came bundled with socket 563 processors as well as a heatsink.

Socket 563 was succeeded by Socket S1 in 2006.
