A-610G 7.5.16 Components with Bottom Thermal Plane Terminations (D-Pak) says: 100% wetting to land in the end-joint contact area. Is that what you're asking about? Regards, David Fish [davef] Technical Editor & Customer Advocate

IPC calls out 100% wetting to land. I need to understand why this is needed and what functionality I will lose if I have joints at 80%

A-620G doesn't require 100% wetting to the thermal pad. It requires 100% wetting to the land in the end-joint area. The end joint is the portion of the solder connection that is at the top [or bottom] of the connection. Look at 7.1.3 Solder Joint A
