Abstract
The present invention provides a low cost device that has a true die to external fiber optic connection. Specifically, the present invention relates to an optical device package joined to a semiconductor device package. In some cases, the combination is joined using wirebond studs and an adhesive material. In other cases, the combination is joined using an anisotropic conductive film. Yet, in other cases, the combination is joined using solder material. Each of these joining mechanisms provides high levels of thermal, electrical and optical performance. The joining mechanisms can apply to optical sub-assembly and chip sub-assembly interfaces in transceivers, transmitters, as well as receivers for opto-electronic packages.
