- L-Cuts: 2nd leg (fine cut segment) perpendicular to 1st leg (coarse cut segment)
- Curved L-Cuts: L-cut with the radial corner, minimizes micro-cracking at the corner
- Plunge cuts: Straight cut parallel to resistor width, perpendicular to the direction of current flow
- Scancuts: Raster motion, wide cuts, typical on high-power or geometrically-sensitive RF circuits
- Serpentine Cuts: Plunge cuts, alternate sides, high dynamic range
- U-Cuts: Inverted āUā starts/stops outside resistor, minimum accuracy but maximum stability
- Non-Orthogonal Plungecuts: Cuts @ angles other than standard X / Y, typical on wiper circuits
- Ladder Cuts: Step-function link trim, typical on passive resistor networks
- Predict / Incremental: Cut-Measure repeat cycle, typical on active trim / tight-tolerance
- High Resolution: Predict / Incremental trim @ 0.14um incrementation
- Radial: Radial resistor trimming/pattern etch
