Hello

Can anyone please tell what is the exact difference between a cut and a via?? Is it like a cut is a generic term for connection between any two layers(poly,metal,diff) and via is a type of cut for connection only between two metal layers?
 

A via is a cut with the up/down metal layers.
 

Via can have more than one cut, multi cut vias will be good for yield.
