摘要： An optical module that may be used in small-form factor pluggable applications includes a delatching/latching mechanism. The optical module may be an optical transceiver, for example, and the delatching/latching mechanism may allow for improved insertion and removal of the optical module from a cage in a computer board assembly. A latching assembly that assists in latching and delatching may include a latching member having a slotted mating element that is in contact with, and rotates relative to a substantially-fixed pivot element. Rotation may be achieved via a rotatable actuator having a cam engaging a cam follower. Numerous example biasing apparatuses are described to bias the latching assembly to its latched position and to promote contact between the mating element and the pivot element.

摘要： Methods and systems may provide an alignment scheme for components that may reduce positional deviation between the components. The method may include placing a first component on top of a substrate, wherein the first component includes a receiving alignment feature, and coupling a second component to the first component, wherein the coupling includes inserting a protruding alignment feature of the second component into the receiving alignment feature of the first component. In one example, the first component includes an edge-emitting semiconductor die and the second component include one or more of an optical lens and an alignment frame.
