    摘要: An electrical connector for interconnecting a pair of circuit members (e.g., circuit module and printed circuit board) which assures highly reliable yet separable connections for these members. The connector includes an electrically insulative (e.g., plastic) frame which defines an internal opening therein. Bridging this opening are a plurality of individual, resilient contact members which are maintained in a suspended and spaced orientation within the opening by a plurality of pairs of elongated insulative members (e.g., polymer rods). Each of the contacts is thus readily removable from the connector's frame to thus facilitate repair and/or replacement. As described, the connector is capable of providing wiping connections, thus assuring removal of debris or other contaminants from the respective conductive pads for each circuit member. In another embodiment, the connector includes a common carrier (e.g., plastic) having therein a plurality of cylindrical shaped resilient contact members (e.g., silicone) which further include a quantity of conductive (e.g., metallic) particles therein. To assure a wiping form of engagement with the respective conductive pads, each of the terminal ends of each contact member preferably includes a plurality of dendritic, interdigitated members thereon.

    摘要: A method and apparatus are disclosed for aligning an array of light transmitting elements to an array of photosensitive detectors. The array is adjusted along three axes. Any element (a coupled transmitting and detecting unit of the array) can be selected as the center of rotation. Small angular correction is made about the selected element by differentially moving the array in two axes, using adjustment tools. Alignment is accomplished by performing translational movement in the horizontal X and Y axes until a signal is detected. A rotational correction about the selected element is performed by moving one of a pair of adjustment devices until maximum light intensity is achieved for the end elements. Next, the array is scanned for the weakest performing element in the array. The alignment procedure is repeated until the performance of all of the elements in the array fall within a pre-established specification range.

    摘要: An optical coupling assembly is described that optically aligns an opto-electronic device, such as a Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) chip, with a fiber optic coupler upon a heatsink substrate. The assembly has a number of biasing elements that acts against the coupler to provide contact with mating surfaces. Adjustment devices, such as screws, acting against the coupler and biasing elements, are adjusted until the fiber optic transmitting elements of the coupler align with the opto-electronic device light emitting elements. Photodetectors disposed upon a distal end of the coupler receive the light from the opto-electronic device, and provide a mechanism to detect optimum alignment.

    摘要: Optical packages and a method of fabricating same, wherein an active optical device can be located relative to a substrate and coupler. The structure includes a substrate having electrical contact pads and alignment pads with precision aligned through-holes for at least one optical fiber. The optical fibers are supported by a housing, or coupler, having alignment pins that are precision located relative to the through-holes in the substrate and the optical fiber. A die, or active optical device, with one or more active optical elements on a first die surface and electrical contacts on a second die surface, is aligned with the electrical pads of the substrate and the active optical elements. The method incorporates the steps of grinding alignment pins into metallic pads and grinding optical fibers in one pass and then aligning the active optical device and the optical fibers by using the surface tension of conductive adhesive liquid. The fibers are then bonded.

    摘要: An optical coupler that provides for the direct mounting of integrated circuit(s). The coupler includes a two-part housing with grooves for accommodating optical fibers that are held in place when the two parts are put together. Circuitry is formed on the housing and solder balls, when heated to a liquid state and cooled (reflowed), are used to attach integrated circuit(s) onto the housing. At least one of these integrated circuit(s) is an optical die that is positioned in close proximity to the optical fibers to provide for the receipt and/or transmission of optical signals. The reflowing of the solder balls forms an electrical connection between the circuitry on the housing and the integrated circuit(s) and provides for alignment of these components. The housing is attached to a circuitized substrate using reflowed solder balls or wirebonds.
