The components of embodiments of the present invention generally described and illustrated in the figures herein may be arranged and designed in a wide variety of different configurations. Thus, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention, presented in the figures, is not intended to limit the scope of the invention, as claimed, but is merely representative of selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1-2, the light receiving module provided in this embodiment includes a tube seat 11 with 8 pins (excluding a GND pin), a Semiconductor cooler 12 (TEC) is disposed on the tube seat 11 for cooling and dissipating heat, and is matched with a thermistor 18, the thermistor 18 samples a current temperature of the temperature, and the Semiconductor cooler 12 cools and dissipates the heat based on a set temperature threshold and a current temperature sampling value to form a closed-loop temperature control system, so that a Semiconductor Optical Amplifier 16 (SOA) works at an optimal temperature (e.g., a temperature range) to ensure performance of the Optical Semiconductor Amplifier. A transimpedance amplifier 14 (TIA) is provided above the semiconductor refrigerator 12 to amplify an output current of the photodiode 15. The transimpedance amplifier 14 is connected to a photodiode 15, and the photodiode 15 converts an optical signal into a current signal and outputs the current signal to the transimpedance amplifier 14. A first condensing lens 13 is disposed above the photodiode 15, and is configured to condense the optical signal amplified by the semiconductor optical amplifier 16. A semiconductor optical amplifier 16 is disposed above the first condenser lens 13 to amplify an optical signal output from the second condenser lens 20. A second condenser lens 20 is disposed above the semiconductor optical amplifier 16 to condense light from the optical fiber into the waveguide of the semiconductor optical amplifier 16.
The descriptions of orientations of the upper and lower portions herein are based on the layout shown in the drawings, and are relative concepts rather than absolute concepts.
As shown in fig. 3, the 8 pins (excluding the GND pin) in the stem 11 include a TEC-pin and a TEC + pin connected to the TEC, an Rth pin connected to the thermistor 18, a VCC pin connected to the power supply, an Rx + pin and an Rx-pin connected to the transimpedance amplifier 14, an SOA pin connected to the semiconductor optical amplifier 16, and an RSSI pin connected to the signal terminal.
In a specific implementation, the photoresistor 18 and the semiconductor optical amplifier 16 may be disposed on a substrate 17, and the substrate 17 may not only perform a fixing function, but also adjust and compensate the height of the semiconductor optical amplifier 16, so that the whole optical path is concentric. In addition, the transimpedance amplifier 14, the substrate 17, the first condenser lens 13, and the second condenser lens 20 may be mounted on a support 19 to ensure stability of the respective components.
The semiconductor optical amplifier 16 may amplify the optical signal after the long-distance transmission attenuation again, receive the optical signal again by the PIN photodiode 15 after the optical component adjustment, and then send the optical signal after the amplification by the transimpedance amplifier 14 to the receiving end processing circuit of the module. In the scheme of the invention, the semiconductor optical amplifier 16 is integrated in the optical receiving assembly, so that the attenuated optical signal after long-distance transmission is effectively amplified, the transmission distance of the optical module is prolonged, and effective hardware technical support is provided for the transmission network extension transmission distance and a relay network part in ongoing 5G network deployment. As shown in fig. 4, the verification result of the open system built by the discrete components: after being transmitted by 80KMG.652 single-mode optical fiber, the sensitivity is about-28.8 dbm @ 5E-5.
As shown in fig. 1, in one embodiment, the bracket 19 has an L-shaped structure, and the transimpedance amplifier 14, the photodiode 15, and the condenser lens are mounted on the lateral mounting surface of the L-shaped structure, and in this case, the semiconductor refrigerator 12 is mounted below the lateral mounting surface of the bracket 19.

In the structure shown in fig. 1, the optical path is in a linear structure, that is, the devices on the optical path are arranged in sequence, which has the advantage of simple structure, but has the disadvantage that the longitudinal optical path is longer, which is not favorable for reducing the total length of the light receiving device. It will be readily appreciated that other arrangements of the components in the optical path are possible, such as the addition of one or more mirrors to reflect the received optical signal to alter the optical path, then to amplify it by a semiconductor optical amplifier, and to convert it by optical components, which advantageously reduces the overall length of the optical receiving component.
Of course, in practical products, the light receiving module further includes a housing, and the components are enclosed in the housing, which is not shown in the drawings.
The above description is only for the specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of the changes or substitutions within the technical scope of the present invention, and all the changes or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the present invention.
