QA Variables
[[snippet||7233856333715]]
| BW_bias | Number |
Bias for electrical bandwidth test. Note: For a ring without electrical modulation, this parameter should not be provided. |
| imp_amplitude |
Amplitude of the impulse in the electrical bandwidth test. Note: For a ring without electrical modulation, this parameter should not be provided. |
|
|
mod_eff_rel_tolerance |
The relative tolerance for QA tests which verify the different figures of merit of the ring modulator. If the simulated values differ from the values provided within the data file by more than this tolerance, the QA tests will fail. Note: For a ring without electrical modulation, mod_eff_rel_tolerance and electrical_bandwidth_rel_tolerance should not be provided. For a ring without thermal tuner, mod_eff_thermal_rel_tolerance and thermal_bandwidth_rel_tolerance should not be provided. |
