Dear all...

Can anyone help me with regard to crosshatching of ground
planes.

There does seem to be a practice of crosshatching to
increase trace impedance whilst keeping impedance controlled
lines at a manufacturable width, I would guess though that at
higher frequencies the crosshatching looks like a large
number of impedance discontinuities.

Does anyone have any guidelines on this?

Kind regards
