CPGA stands for Ceramic Pin Grid Array, a type of connection for CPUs where the processor's die is attached to a heat-conducting ceramic plate which is pierced by an array of pins which make the requisite connections to the socket.

Popular CPUs that employ CPGA are the "classic" Socket A Athlon and the Duron, both from AMD.
