Optical communication module

摘要

The present invention provides an optical module in which the level of the lead frame coincides with the optical axis of the fiber. The module 1 comprises a container 4, a subassembly 2 and a lead frame 6. The subassembly includes a substrate, on which the semiconductor optical device and the optical fiber are mounted. The lead frame has a pair of fixing bar and inner leads. The fixing bars extend along a first direction and attach to regions on the container. Respective inner leads extend along a second direction intersecting the first direction and have tips facing to respective fixing bars.
