tunable_ring_switch_dneff_dT_qa.lsf
Following test-bench is used to extract the gain spectrum and extract FOMs. These values will be compared to source data and made sure the difference is within the tolerance.

Tunable_ring_switch_modulation_efficiency_qa.lsf
In this test bench, two ring switch compact models are biased with voltage values provided in "mod_eff_voltage1" and "mod_eff_voltage2" in the source data file, and the gain spectrum for these two cases are obtained. Resonant wavelengths for these two bias points are extracted. Modulation efficiency is then calculated and compared to "mod_eff" value in source data and make sure the difference is within the tolerance values.

Tunable_ring_switch_thermal_Ppi_qa.lsf
In this test-bench the thermal tuners of two ring switch compact models are biased based on the power values provided in "mod_eff_thermal_power1" and "mod_eff_thermal_power2" in the source data file and the gain spectrums are obtained. Finding the resonant wavelength for each case, thermal Ppi is extracted and compared to "mod_eff_thermal" value in source data and make sure the difference is within the tolerance value.

Tunable_ring_switch_electrical_BW_qa.lsf
Following two test-benches are used to extract electrical bandwidth for the ring switch compact model by performing a Fourier transform on the impulse response. Net 3dB bandwidth can be extracted from the top circuit with a bias point defined in source data as "BW_bias". Optical 3dB bandwidth can be extracted from the circuit at the bottom with 0V bias. 3dB electrical bandwidth at the defined bias point can be obtained from these values and compared to data provided in "electrical_bandwidth_data" in source data and make sure the difference is within the tolerance value.
