Hey Ya'll,
      The subject has come up....why add copper to signal layers in a
multilayer board if it has no electrical function?
I am in the habit of filling open areas with copper to prevent board
warpage. This does work, doesn't it?
Should copper fill be solid or hatched? Or does it matter?

Help a designer/Help an engineer.

Thanks,
