    Abstract: An interposer (support substrate) for an opto-electronic assembly is formed to include a thermally-isolated region where temperature-sensitive devices (such as, for example, laser diodes) may be positioned and operate independent of temperature fluctuations in other areas of the assembly. The thermal isolation is achieved by forming a boundary of dielectric material through the thickness of the interposer, the periphery of the dielectric defining the boundary between the thermally isolated region and the remainder of the assembly. A thermo-electric cooler can be used in conjunction with the temperature-sensitive device(s) to stabilize the operation of these devices.

    Abstract: An optical transmitter may include a chip stack that includes an electrical IC that is mounted using solder balls to a photonic chip. These solder connections permit the electrical IC and the photonic chip to communicate. In addition, the transmitter may include a PCB coupled to the stack so that electrical signals in the PCB are transmitted to the IC and photonic chip (and vice versa). Instead of coupling the PCB to the stack using wire bonds attached to pads on a surface of the photonic chip, at least a portion of the PCB is disposed between the photonic chip and electrical IC. The PCB may also include bond pads used to form a direct solder connection to the electrical IC. As such, the electrical IC may include direct solder connections to both the PCB and the photonic chip.

    Abstract: A wafer scale implementation of an opto-electronic transceiver assembly process utilizes a silicon wafer as an optical reference plane and platform upon which all necessary optical and electronic components are simultaneously assembled for a plurality of separate transceiver modules. In particular, a silicon wafer is utilized as a “platform” (interposer) upon which all of the components for a multiple number of transceiver modules are mounted or integrated, with the top surface of the silicon interposer used as a reference plane for defining the optical signal path between separate optical components. Indeed, by using a single silicon wafer as the platform for a large number of separate transceiver modules, one is able to use a wafer scale assembly process, as well as optical alignment and testing of these modules.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein describe a reference-less CDR circuit that receives electrical signals that may have been transmitted along either an electrical or optical interconnect which are then processed to identify the original data. To do so, the CDR circuit includes a frequency locking loop (FLL) and a phase locking loop (PLL) which generate control signals for a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO). In one embodiment, the FLL generates a coarse adjustment signal which the VCO uses to output a recovered clock that substantially matches the frequency of the received electrical signal. The PLL, on the other hand, generates a fine adjustment signal which the VCO uses to make small adjustments (e.g., half cycle phase shifts) to the recovered clock. The recovered clock outputted by the VCO is then fed back and used as an input in both the FLL and the PLL.

    Abstract: An apparatus for providing self-aligned optical coupling between an opto-electronic substrate and a fiber array, where the substrate is enclosed by a transparent lid such that the associated optical signals enter and exit the arrangement through the transparent lid. The apparatus takes the form of a two-part connectorized fiber array assembly where the two pieces uniquely mate to form a self-aligned configuration. A first part, in the form of a plate, is attached to the transparent lid in the area where the optical signals pass through. The first plate includes a central opening with inwardly-tapering sidewalls surrounding its periphery. A second plate is also formed to include a central opening and has a lower protrusion with inwardly-tapering sidewalls that mate with the inwardly-tapering sidewalls of the first plate to form the self-aligned connectorized fiber array assembly. The fiber array is then attached to the second plate in a self-aligned fashion.
