摘要:
An apparatus and its method for controlling the positioning of optical fiber blocks and a Planar Lightwave Circuit, wherein alignment marks are formed for input and output optical fiber blocks and a Planar Lightwave Circuit, and position images of the alignment marks are detected by means of a microcomputer, CCD cameras and micro positioners, which allow quick operation of the initial positions which are capable of positioning, to acquire output optical signals passing by noise areas. Accordingly, the overall productivity is increased. Further, there are not a lot differences in speed between skilled hands and novices since the positioning operations do not rely on the expertise of the operator, and the positioning operations for mass production can be accomplished since the speed of repetition is enhanced.
