In some embodiments of the present application, the module attach area 111 is a copper sheet on the chip carrier 110.
In order to meet the heat dissipation requirement of the optoelectronic chip assembly 120, the module attaching region 111 is connected to the second pad region 113 through a plurality of heat dissipation holes (not shown), and when the optoelectronic chip assembly 120 works and generates heat, the heat is guided to the outside through the heat dissipation holes and the second pad region 113, so that good heat dissipation is realized.
The plurality of pads in the first pad area 112 are disposed correspondingly according to the positions of the electrical signal interfaces of the electrical chip 122 to facilitate electrical connection.
In some embodiments of the present application, the optoelectronic chip assembly 120 is assembled to the chip carrier plate 110 via a micro-assembly process.
In some embodiments of the present application, referring to fig. 5, the optoelectronic chip assembly 120 includes a ceramic block 121, an optical chip 123, and an electrical chip 122, wherein the optical chip 123 and the electrical chip 122 are respectively mounted on the ceramic block 121.
In order to achieve the connection of the electrical chip 122 and the first pad area 112, a first pad (not labeled) and a second pad (not labeled) are also provided on the electrical chip 122, the first pad being for electrical connection with the first pad area 112 on the chip carrier 110 via gold wire bonding.

In assembly, the ceramic block 121 is first adhered to the module adhering region 111 of the chip carrier 110 by conductive silver paste, and then the optical chip 123 and the electrical chip 122 are adhered to the ceramic block 121.
To facilitate the assembly of the optical signal interface of the optical chip 123 and the optical connector 130, and the electrical connection of the electrical chip 122 and the first pad area 111, the optical chip 123 is attached to the side of the ceramic block 121, and the electrical chip 122 is attached to the top surface of the ceramic block 121.
Since the optical chip 123 is attached to the side of the ceramic block 121 and the electrical chip 122 is attached to the top surface of the ceramic block 121, the second bonding pad and the third bonding pad are electrically connected by gold wire bonding in a 90-degree transfer manner, so that the micro-assembly process of the optical chip assembly 120 is completed.
As above, the circuit connection of the photo-electric chip assembly 120 is completed.
In some embodiments of the present application, the optical connector 130 is used to connect to an optical signal interface of the optoelectronic chip assembly 120, and is used to output an optical signal generated by the optoelectronic unit 100.
The optical connector 130 includes a ferrule 131, and the ferrule 131 is provided with an optical fiber hole 133, and a plurality of optical fibers are fixed in the optical fiber hole 133 through the optical fiber hole 133 for interfacing with an optical signal.
To meet the small-scale fabrication of the optoelectronic unit 100, the optical connector 130 is implemented on the basis of a conventional multi-channel Mini-MT ferrule.
In some embodiments of the present application, a conventional twelve channel Mini-MT ferrule is used.
After the optical fiber array passes through the twelve-channel mini-MT ferrule, the tail end 130' of the MT ferrule is cut after the optical fiber is fixed by dispensing, so that the cutting surface 132 is formed into an inclined surface, and the front end part of the residual MT ferrule forms the optical connector 130.
The cut surface 132 of the ferrule 131 and the outer end surface 134 opposite to the cut surface 132 need to be optically ground, so that the optical fiber end surfaces of the two free ends of the optical fiber meet the requirement of the optical surface.
After optical lapping is completed, a pair of guide pins 135/136 may be mounted on the ferrule 131 to facilitate docking with an external optical connector (e.g., an external MT ferrule or an MPO ferrule) via the guide pins 135/136.
And the optical fiber position deviation of the optical connector 130 on the cutting surface 132 is less than 3 micrometers, so as to meet the requirement of multimode optical fiber coupling precision.
As such, the fiber end face of the optical connector 130 on the cut face 132 is for optical connection with the optical signal interface of the optoelectronic chip assembly 120 (see fig. 7 and 8), and the fiber end face of the optical connector 130 on the outer end face 134 is for optical connection with an external optical connector.

Thus, the optical chip 123 and the optical connector 130 are coupled and aligned and fixed, and the optical path connection is completed.
In some embodiments of the present application, the cut surface 132 forms an angle with the vertical surface as described above of between 7 ° and 9 °.
In some embodiments of the present application, by means of active coupling, when the intensities of the optical signal and the electrical response signal are monitored in real time to be optimal, the optical path is fixed in a coupling manner, so as to complete the alignment connection between the optical connector and the optical chip.
In some embodiments of the present application, the distance from the cutting surface 132 to the vertical surface perpendicular to the horizontal axis of the optical fiber hole sequentially increases from top to bottom, so, when the optical adhesive 150 is filled between the optical fiber end surface of the optical fiber on the cutting surface 132 and the optical signal interface, it needs to be confirmed from the side whether the two achieve the coupling butt joint.
The optical adhesive 150 is an optical matching adhesive, an EPOXY material, and has an infrared light transmittance of more than 95% at 850nm, such as 353ND adhesive from EPOXY corporation.
As above, the electrical and optical connection of the optoelectronic chip assembly 120 is completed (see fig. 7 and 8), and thereafter, the entire optoelectronic unit 100 is protected by the plastic package 140.
