FreeLists / si-list / [SI-LIST] Copper Thieving (was: "checkered" copper plane question)

["Bill Mueller" <williamm@xxxxxxx>]

Hello again all,

It's nice to have a name to it.  Thanks for all the
great information.

My buddy and I here usually fill large open areas
with solid planes stapled to the nearest power/ground
plane.  Pretty much to add another reference to signals
on adjacent layers.

So two more questions come to mind:

    1. If we started making many-layered boards (8-10+),
        would these manufacturing considerations begin
        to out-weigh the electrical benifits?

    2. Is copper thieving used on internal layers?

Thanks again,
-Bill
