Disclosed herein is an architecture of connecting a transceiver module for an optical PCB, in which an active photo-electric element and other components to be integrated in the optical PCB having waveguides are packaged, waveguides arranged in the optical PCB, and an optical connection block for optical coupling between the transceiver module and the waveguides of the optical PCB. Guide pin insertion holes are formed at one sides of the ends of the waveguides such that the optical PCB, the transceiver module and the optical connection block can be passively aligned using guide pins inserted into the guide pin insertion holes.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a printed circuit board for an optical waveguide, including: a lower substrate; an insulation layer which has a through-hole and is formed on the lower substrate; an optical waveguide which is formed in the through-hole such that a clearance is present between the optical wave guide and an inner wall of the through-hole; and an adhesive material which is charged in the clearance. The printed circuit board for an optical waveguide is advantageous in that a lower clad material, a core material and an upper clad material are sequentially applied on the lower substrate partially, not entirely, based on the region in which a core is formed, and is then patterned to form an optical waveguide, so that the amounts of the lower and upper clad materials and the core material, which are used to form the optical waveguide, can be greatly decreased.
