Hello Tom,
 
There is a dimension "Amax" indicated in below principles of IPC-7351B, see below picture.
 
But it seems there is no drawing to define which size is for "Amax".
 
Could you please help on this question?
 
Thanks

Please download the SMD Reference Calculator.
 
All values and dimensional assignments are displayed. 
 
You can change the calculation values and observe the resulting land pattern results.

I cann't find dimension "A" mentioned above in SMD reference calculator. It seems only for chip component.
Could you tell me which size is for the dimension "A" ?
Thanks.

Sorry for the late reply especially for such a simple question, it's been really busy lately.
