Manufacturable optical connection assemblies

摘要

A set of interlocking modules supports and connects a die containing lasers, a set of precision molded lenses and a set of beam switching elements. Another embodiment of the invention is a structure for mounting a logic chip and an optical chip on a chip carrier, with the optical chip being mounted on the side of the carrier facing the system board on which the carrier is mounted, so that radiation travels in a straight path from optical sources on the optical chip into optical transmission guides on the board.
