There are other chip styles; Low inductance Chip Capacitors
The physical size for chip resistors and capacitors is shown in the
graphic above. The standard EIA component designations are shown under
the type heading. The common values for capacitors or standard wattage
size for resistors are shown for each EIA component type. The smaller the
physical part, the lower the inductance. Pick the smallest possible
package size which still meets the design criteria. The table provides
dimensions in mm, the 'Type' is the English designation. The 'type' used
above are different for metric designations. Also, there is an additional
designation for Tantalum capacitors [shown above]. Case codes
include:
... P ..... 0805
... A ..... 1206
... B ..... 1411
... C ..... 2412
... D/E . 2917
Additional Surface Mount [SM] chips sizes may include the following:

The dimensions are in millimeters, are nominal and may not follow
released standards.
