A new form factor for circuit boards can be employed for directly connecting an expansion board to a motherboard without the need for PCIe hardware such as sockets, retainers, screw and nut assemblies, and connectors. The module on board form factor for an expansion board comprises a first side of the expansion board and a second side of the expansion board located physically opposite to the first side of the expansion board. The first side of the expansion board comprises one or more components configured to provide functionality associated with the expansion board. The second side of the expansion board comprises a plurality of connection leads, such as solder connections, that directly couple the expansion board to the motherboard.
