Re: Potato Chipping
Potato Chipping ("Potatoe" to us conservative Republican types) or "warp and
twist" is usually attributed, at least in my experience, to a lamination process
which is heating up or cooling down too quickly or too unevenly. It is solved
by:
adding a tempering cycle after lamination. (post bake)
adding lag material to the stack for the press build-up (tending to
slow-down the heat-up and cool-down of the press cycle)
changing the heat-up and/or cool-down rates in the press
changing the way a multilayer is constructed to eliminate or minimize any
"uneven" character of the build.
Sometimes the design of a board pre-ordains it, by virtue of where copper masses
are placed, to look like a potato chip. Good communication between fabricator
and designer should help preclude such situations. Good luck and may all your
future boards look as flat as a pancake!
