What standard governs the dimensions of SMT chip resistors and capacitors?


I am aware of the JEDEC registered outlines, which define the standard mechanical dimensions and tolerances for a wide variety of solid-state packages.



However, these standards do not appear to cover two-terminal SMT resistors and capacitors (e.g. 0603, 0805, etc.). IPC-SM-782 has dimensions and tolerances for these, but this standard has been superceded by IPC-7351, which no longer includes this data.


What standard currently governs the standard dimensions of these components?
