Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The land grid array (LGA) is a type of surface-mount packaging for integrated circuits (ICs) that is notable for having the pins on the socket (when a socket is used)-as opposed to pins on the integrated circuit, known as a pin grid array (PGA).

Detailed explanation-2: -A land grid array (LGA) socket can provide compressive electrical interconnect between the printed circuit boards (PCB) and the processor. LGA sockets are one of the latest socket technologies for x86 LGA microprocessor packages that range in size up to 4200 pins.

Detailed explanation-3: -Large for gestational age (LGA) refers to a fetus or infant who is larger than expected for their age and gender. It can also include infants with a birth weight above the 90th percentile.
