Abstract

The invention is a transceiver package with reduced overall width and optical pitch. Separate circuit boards are provided for the laser with its associated circuitry and the photodetector with its associated circuitry. The boards are mounted to the sidewalls of the package housing so that they are essentially perpendicular to the base of the package and to the major surface of the mother board.
