Abstract
An array optical sub-assembly includes a base seat, an integrated circuit, a transparent substrate and a photoelectric element. The integrated circuit and the photoelectric element are bonded respectively to the base seat and the transparent substrate. The base seat and the transparent substrate form a sealed space to protect the elements. The photoelectric element and the integrated circuit are separated to avoid thermal interference between the photoelectric element and the integrated circuit. Therefore total performance is increased and fabrication difficulty is reduced.
Claims13
An array optical sub-assembly, comprising:
- a base seat which has a holding surface;
- an integrated circuit located on the holding surface of the base seat;
- a transparent substrate covering the base seat to form a space therewith;
- and
- a photoelectric element bonded to the transparent substrate on one side where the space is formed to connect electrically with the integrated circuit through the transparent substrate and the base seat;
- wherein the photoelectric element and the transparent substrate, are bonded through a silver paste or solder balls;
- and
- wherein the base seat includes at least one metal conductive wire to serve as a circuit to electrically connect the photoelectric element and the integrated circuit.
