Hello,  I have a question concerning land dimensions

What is the recommended IPC land dimensions for a 0603 Surface Mount Chip
Inductor.

1.6mm x 0.8mm x 0.8mm   -    0603 chip inductor dimensions

There is no reference to this device in IPC-SM-782  (includes Ammendment 1
October 1996).

Regards, Liam

Liam,
        We use the following dimensions

        pad length = 0.7
        pad width       = 0.8
        distance between pads = 0.8

Dont know if this helps as it is not IPC. But we've used these dimensions for some time now with good results.
