PASSIVELY ALIGNED FIBER OPTICAL ENGINE FOR PARALLEL OPTICS INTERCONNECT DEVICES

摘要

A fiber optical engine (10) (100) and manufacturing method therefor is provided with an optical element (12) (102) having an optical substrate (30) and optics (36). An opto-electronic element (16) (106), which converts between light and electronic signals, is secured to the optical substrate (30) and is passively aligned with the optics (36). An integrated circuit (14) (104) for controlling the opto-electronic element (16) (106) is secured to the optical substrate (30). An electrical substrate (18) is secured to the optical element (12) (102).
