光通信技术中,使用光携带待传输的信息,并使携带有信息的光信号通过光纤或光波导等信息传输设备传输至计算机等信息处理设备,以完成信息的传输。由于光信号通过光纤或光波导中传输时具有无源传输特性,因此可以实现低成本、低损耗的信息传输。此外,光纤或光波导等信息传输设备传输的信号是光信号,而计算机等信息处理设备能够识别和处理的信号是电信号,因此为了在光纤或光波导等信息传输设备与计算机等信息处理设备之间建立 信息连接,需要实现电信号与光信号的相互转换。
光模块在光纤通信技术领域中实现上述光信号与电信号的相互转换功能。光模块包括光口和电口,光模块通过光口实现与光纤或光波导等信息传输设备的光通信,通过电口实现与光网络终端(例如,光猫)之间的电连接,电连接主要被配置为实现供电、I2C信号传输、数据信号传输以及接地等;光网络终端通过网线或无线保真技术(Wi-Fi)将电信号传输给计算机等信息处理设备。
图1为根据一些实施例的一种光通信***的连接关系图。如图1所示,光通信***主要包括远端服务器1000、本地信息处理设备2000、光网络终端100、光模块200、光纤101及网线103;
光纤101的一端连接远端服务器1000,另一端通过光模块200与光网络终端100连接。光纤本身可支持远距离信号传输,例如数千米(6千米至8千米)的信号传输,在此基础上如果使用中继器,则理论上可以实现超长距离传输。因此在通常的光通信***中,远端服务器1000与光网络终端100之间的距离通常可达到数千米、数十千米或数百千米。
网线103的一端连接本地信息处理设备2000,另一端连接光网络终端100。本地信息处理设备2000可以为以下设备中的任一种或几种:路由器、交换机、计算机、手机、平板电脑、电视机等。
远端服务器1000与光网络终端100之间的物理距离大于本地信息处理设备2000与光网络终端100之间的物理距离。本地信息处理设备2000与远端服务器1000的连接由光纤101与网线103完成;而光纤101与网线103之间的连接由光模块200和光网络终端100完成。
光模块200包括光口和电口。光口被配置为与光纤101连接,从而使得光模块200与光纤101建立双向的光信号连接;电口被配置为接入光网络终端100中,从而使得光模块200与光网络终端100建立双向的电信号连接。光模块200实现光信号与电信号的相互转换,从而使得光纤101与光网络终端100之间建立连接。示例地,来自光纤101的光信号由光模块200转换为电信号后输入至光网络终端100中,来自光网络终端100的电信号由光模块200转换为光信号输入至光纤101中。
光网络终端100包括大致呈长方体的壳体(housing),以及设置在壳体上的光模块接口102和网线接口104。光模块接口102被配置为接入光模块200,从而使得光网络终端100与光模块200建立双向的电信号连接;网线接口104被配置为接入网线103,从而使得光网络终端100与网线103建立双向的电信号连接。光模块200与网线103之间通过光网络终端100建立连接。示例地,光网络终端100将来自光模块200的电信号传递给网线103,将来自网线103的信号传递给光模块200,因此光网络终端100作为光模块200的上位机,可以监控光模块200的工作。光模块200的上位机除光网络终端100之外还可以包括光线路终端(Optical Line Terminal,OLT)等。
远端服务器1000通过光纤101、光模块200、光网络终端100及网线103,与本地信息处理设备2000之间建立了双向的信号传递通道。
图2为根据一些实施例的一种光网络终端的结构图,为了清楚地显示光模块200与光网 络终端100的连接关系,图2仅示出了光网络终端100的与光模块200相关的结构。如图2所示,光网络终端100中还包括设置于壳体内的PCB电路板105,设置在PCB电路板105的表面的笼子106,以及设置在笼子106内部的电连接器。电连接器被配置为接入光模块200的电口;散热器107具有增大散热面积的翅片等凸起部。
光模块200***光网络终端100的笼子106中,由笼子106固定光模块200,光模块200产生的热量传导给笼子106,然后通过散热器107进行扩散。光模块200***笼子106中后,光模块200的电口与笼子106内部的电连接器连接,从而光模块200与光网络终端100建立双向的电信号连接。此外,光模块200的光口与光纤101连接,从而光模块200与光纤101建立双向的电信号连接。

两个开口204和205的连线所在方向可以与光模块200的长度方向一致,也可以与光模块200的长度方向不一致。示例地,开口204位于光模块200的端部(图3的右端),开口205也位于光模块200的端部(图3的左端)。或者,开口204位于光模块200的端部,而开口205则位于光模块200的侧部。其中,开口204为电口,电路板206的金手指从电口204伸出,***上位机(如光网络终端100)中;开口205为光口,配置为接入外部的光纤101,以使光纤101连接光模块200的内部。
采用上壳体201、下壳体202结合的装配方式,便于将电路板206等器件安装到壳体中,由上壳体201、下壳体202可以对这些器件形成封装保护。此外,在装配电路板206等器件时,便于这些器件的定位部件、散热部件以及电磁屏蔽部件的部署,有利于自动化的实施生产。
在一些实施例中,上壳体201及下壳体202一般采用金属材料制成,利于实现电磁屏蔽以及散热。
在一些实施例中,光模块200还包括位于其壳体外壁的解锁部件203,解锁部件203被配置为实现光模块200与上位机之间的固定连接,或解除光模块200与上位机之间的固定连接。
示例地,解锁部件203位于下壳体202的两个下侧板的外壁,包括与上位机的笼子(例如,光网络终端100的笼子106)匹配的卡合部件。当光模块200***上位机的笼子里,由解锁部件203的卡合部件将光模块200固定在上位机的笼子里;拉动解锁部件203时,解锁部件203的卡合部件随之移动,进而改变卡合部件与上位机的连接关系,以解除光模块200与 上位机的卡合关系,从而可以将光模块200从上位机的笼子里抽出。
电路板206包括电路走线、电子元件及芯片,通过电路走线将电子元件和芯片按照电路设计连接在一起,以实现供电、电信号传输及接地等功能。电子元件例如可以包括电容、电阻、三极管、金属氧化物半导体场效应管(Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor,MOSFET)。芯片例如可以包括微控制单元(Microcontroller Unit,MCU)、限幅放大器(limiting amplifier)、时钟数据恢复芯片(Clock and Data Recovery,CDR)、电源管理芯片、数字信号处理(Digital Signal Processing,DSP)芯片。
电路板206一般为硬性电路板,硬性电路板由于其相对坚硬的材质,还可以实现承载作用,如硬性电路板可以平稳的承载芯片;硬性电路板还可以***上位机笼子中的电连接器中。
电路板206还包括形成在其端部表面的金手指,金手指由相互独立的多个引脚组成。电路板206***笼子106中,由金手指与笼子106内的电连接器导通连接。金手指可以仅设置在电路板206一侧的表面(例如图4所示的上表面),也可以设置在电路板206上下两侧的表面,以适应引脚数量需求大的场合。金手指被配置为与上位机建立电连接,以实现供电、接地、I2C信号传递、数据信号传递等。当然,部分光模块中也会使用柔性电路板。柔性电路板一般与硬性电路板配合使用,以作为硬性电路板的补充。

光发射组件207包括激光器组件440A、透镜阵列450A、波分复用组件与透镜组件,激光器组件440A、透镜阵列450A、波分复用组件与透镜组件等器件均置于盖板410A、管壳420A与陶瓷转接块430A组成的气密壳体内,且激光器组件440A、透镜阵列450A、波分复用组件与透镜组件等器件沿光发射方向依次设置。激光器组件被配置为发射多种不同波长的光束,不同波长的光束经透镜阵列450A、波分复用组件、透镜组件等光学器件实现合光,合光后的复合光束通过光纤适配器传输至外部光纤中,以实现光束的发射。
在本公开的某一些实施例中,激光器组件440A包括多个激光器,多个激光器均靠近陶瓷转接块430A设置,且每个激光器通过金线与陶瓷转接块430A连接。陶瓷转接块430A位于气密壳体的一端设置有焊盘,激光器通过金线与焊盘连接,以实现气密壳体内激光器组件440A与陶瓷转接块430A的电连接。
在本公开实施例中,激光器组件440A包括8个激光器,8个激光器沿着气密壳体的前后方向依次设置,且8个激光器发射8束不同波长的激光光束,8束不同波长的激光光束经透镜阵列450A、波分复用组件、透镜组件等光学器件实现合光,得到一束复合光束,合光后的复合光束通过光纤适配器传输至外部光纤中。
透镜阵列450A包括8个准直透镜,每个准直透镜与每个激光器对应设置,位于激光器 的光出射方向上,如此激光器发射的激光光束通过准直透镜转换成准直光束,准直光束射入波分复用组件进行合光。

图7为根据一些实施例的一种光模块中激光器组件、陶瓷转接块与柔性电路板的装配示意图。如图7所示,陶瓷转接块430A位于气密壳体内的一端通过金线与激光器组件440A的各个激光器连接,陶瓷转接块430A位于气密壳体外的一端通过柔性电路板与电路板206连接,通过柔性电路板、陶瓷转接块430A将电路板206产生的电信号、工作信号等转接至各个激光器,以驱动各个激光器发射不同波长的激光光束。
为了通过陶瓷转接块430A实现壳体内与壳体外的电连接,陶瓷转接块430A上镀有金属层,陶瓷转接块430A位于壳体内侧的金属层上设置有信号焊盘与接地焊盘,陶瓷转接块430A位于壳体外侧的金属层上同样设置有信号焊盘与接地焊盘,陶瓷转接块430A内、外侧的信号焊盘相连接,以实现陶瓷转接块430A内、外侧的电连接,从而通过陶瓷转接块430A实现电信号、工作信号等的转接。
图8为根据一些实施例的一种光模块中陶瓷转接块与柔性电路板的装配示意图,图9为根据一些实施例的一种光模块中陶瓷转接块与柔性电路板的分解示意图。陶瓷转接块430A朝向电路板206的一端(位于气密壳体外的一端)设置有凸台4310,该凸台4310与陶瓷转接块430A一体设置,且该凸台4310与柔性电路板连接,通过柔性电路板将电路板206的信号传送至陶瓷转接块430A,陶瓷转接块430A再将信号转接至激光器组件440A,实现激光器 组件440A中激光器等的正常工作。
陶瓷转接块430A***气密壳体的一侧设置有多个安装槽4320,多个安装槽4320成阶梯状设置,且每个安装槽4320上均设置有焊盘,激光器组件440A的激光驱动器、激光器等分别通过金线与安装槽4320上的焊盘连接,以实现信号的转接。
陶瓷转接块430A一侧的凸台4310可通过两个柔性电路板与电路板206连接,即凸台4310的上侧面与第一柔性电路板600A连接,凸台4310的下侧面与第二柔性电路板700连接,以实现各种信号的传递。
为了实现陶瓷转接块430A与柔性电路板的连接,凸台4310的侧面上并排设置有信号焊盘与接地焊盘,柔性电路板的一端相应设置有FPC信号焊盘与FPC接地焊盘,陶瓷转接块430A上的信号焊盘与柔性电路板上相应的FPC信号焊盘通过焊锡连接,陶瓷转接块430A上的接地焊盘与柔性电路板上相应的PC接地焊盘通过焊锡连接,从而实现了柔性电路板与陶瓷转接块430A的连接固定。
在本公开实施例中,凸台4310前后方向的长度尺寸与陶瓷转接块430A前后方向的长度尺寸一致,以在凸台4310的侧面上留有足够的空间设置信号焊盘与接地焊盘,保证陶瓷转接块430A与柔性电路板之间信号传输的完整性。还有,凸台4310的上侧面距陶瓷转接块430A的上侧面具有一定的距离,凸台4310的下侧面距陶瓷转接块430A的下侧面同样具有一定的距离,以方便凸台4310的上、下侧面与柔性电路板焊接。
图10为根据一些实施例的一种光模块中陶瓷转接块的结构示意图,图11为根据一些实施例的一种光模块中陶瓷转接块的另一角度结构示意图,图12为根据一些实施例的一种光模块中陶瓷转接块的局部结构示意图。如图10、图11、图12所示,高速产品中,高速信号的传输模式为GND-Signal-GND模式,因此陶瓷转接块430A与柔性电路板互联的焊盘模式为GSG模式,即陶瓷转接块430A的凸台4310侧面设置的信号焊盘、接地焊盘结构为第一接地焊盘4311、信号焊盘4312与第二接地焊盘4313,信号焊盘4312设置在第一接地焊盘4311与第二接地焊盘4313之间。
凸台4310上的第一接地焊盘4311、信号焊盘4312、第二接地焊盘4313与柔性电路板上的焊盘连接时,需要通过焊锡连接,焊盘的宽度要保证一定大小才能充分焊接成功,这样势必会导致凸台4310上的第一接地焊盘4311、信号焊盘4312、第二接地焊盘4313与柔性电路板上的焊盘焊接处存在阻抗不连续点,信号质量发生变化,信号完整性变差。
陶瓷转接块430A上信号焊盘、接地焊盘与柔性电路板上焊盘焊接处的阻抗与陶瓷转接块430A自身的介电常数有关,当介电常数越小时,其他参量不变,会使得阻抗变大,因此本公开可通过降低陶瓷转接块430A的介电常数来提升其阻抗,减少陶瓷转接块430A与柔性电路板焊盘焊接处的阻抗不连续点。
在本公开实施例中,为了提高信号质量,减少阻抗不连续点,使高频性能更佳完善,在凸台4310的信号焊盘与接地焊盘之间设置有隔离槽,该隔离槽凹陷于信号焊盘与接地焊盘。通过在凸台4310上设置隔离槽来减小陶瓷转接块430A的介电常数,隔离槽内没有导电介质,通过隔离槽较低的介电常数来降低隔离槽周围介质的介电常数,从而可提升隔离槽周围信号 焊盘与接地焊盘的阻抗。
在本公开的某一些实施例中,第一接地焊盘4311与信号焊盘4312之间设置有第一隔离槽4314,信号焊盘4312与第二接地焊盘4313之间设置有第二隔离槽4315,第一隔离槽4314与第二隔离槽4315均凹陷于第一接地焊盘4311、信号焊盘4312与第二接地焊盘4313,由凸台4310的左侧面向右侧面方向延伸。
在凸台4310的第一接地焊盘4311与信号焊盘4312之间设置第一隔离槽4314,在信号焊盘4312与第二接地焊盘4313之间设置第二隔离槽4315时,第一隔离槽4314与第二隔离槽4315由陶瓷转接块430A的外壁沿左右方向延伸至凸台4310朝向电路板206的侧面,即第一隔离槽4314、第二隔离槽4315左右方向的长度尺寸与凸台4310上信号焊盘、接地焊盘左右方向的长度尺寸一致。
另外,在凸台4310的第一接地焊盘4311与信号焊盘4312之间设置第一隔离槽4314,在信号焊盘4312与第二接地焊盘4313之间设置第二隔离槽4315时,第一隔离槽4314由第一接地焊盘4311的前侧面向信号焊盘4312的后侧面方向延伸,第二隔离槽4315由信号焊盘4312的前侧面向第二接地焊盘4313的后侧面方向延伸,即第一隔离槽4314前后方向的宽度尺寸可等于第一接地焊盘4311与信号焊盘4312之间的间距,第二隔离槽4315前后方向的宽度尺寸可等于信号焊盘4312与第二接地焊盘4313之间的间距。
在本公开实施例中,第一隔离槽4314前后方向的宽度尺寸也可小于第一接地焊盘4311与信号焊盘4312之间的间距,第二隔离槽4315前后方向的宽度尺寸也可小于信号焊盘4312与第二接地焊盘4313之间的间距。只要陶瓷转接块430A的凸台4310在信号焊盘与接地焊盘之间设置有隔离槽即可,本公开对隔离槽的尺寸限制可根据实际情况进行设置。
在本公开实施例中,可只在凸台4310一侧的信号焊盘与接地焊盘之间设置隔离槽,设置有隔离槽的一侧传输高速信号,未设置隔离槽的一侧传输低速信号。如在凸台4310上侧面的信号焊盘与接地焊盘之间设置隔离槽;也可在凸台4310相对的两侧的信号焊盘与接地焊盘之间均设置隔离槽,即凸台4310的上侧面设置有第一接地焊盘4311、第一信号焊盘与第二接地焊盘4313,第一信号焊盘设置在第一接地焊盘4311与第二接地焊盘之间4313,第一柔性电路板600A上的焊盘与凸台4310上侧面的第一接地焊盘4311、第一信号焊盘、第二接地焊盘4313通过焊锡焊接在一起,以将第一柔性电路板600A连接至凸台4310的上侧面。
凸台4310的下侧面设置有第三接地焊盘、第二信号焊盘与第四接地焊盘,第二信号焊盘设置在第三接地焊盘与第四接地焊盘之间,第二柔性电路板700上的焊盘与凸台4310下侧面的第三接地焊盘、第二信号焊盘、第四接地焊盘通过焊锡焊接在一起,以将第二柔性电路板700连接至凸台4310的下侧面。
凸台4310的上侧面上,第一接地焊盘4311与第一信号焊盘之间设置有第一隔离槽4314,第一信号焊盘与第二接地焊盘4313之间设置有第二隔离槽4315;凸台4310的下侧面上,第三接地焊盘与第二信号焊盘之间设置有第三隔离槽,第二信号焊盘与第四接地焊盘之间设置有第四隔离槽。
在本公开实施例中,柔性电路板与陶瓷转接块430A连接时,柔性电路板覆盖陶瓷转接 块430A上设置的隔离槽。即陶瓷转接块430A的凸台4310上侧面设置第一隔离槽4314与第二隔离槽4315时,柔性电路板与陶瓷转接块430A的凸台4310焊接时,柔性电路板覆盖凸台4310上的第一接地焊盘4311、第一隔离槽4314、信号焊盘4312、第二隔离槽4315与第二接地焊盘4313。
通过在凸台4310上下侧面上分别设置第一隔离槽4314、第二隔离槽4315、第三隔离槽与第四隔离,槽降低了陶瓷转接块430A的介电常数,从而提升了陶瓷转接块430A上接地焊盘、信号焊盘与柔性电路板焊盘连接处的阻抗,减少了陶瓷转接块430A与柔性电路板焊盘焊接处的阻抗不连续点。由此,既能节省空间,又能保证焊盘的宽度,可以确保工艺焊接稳定,最重要的是可以大幅提升信号质量,从而保证了信号传输的完整性。

在本公开一些实施例中,第一基板610设置在光接收下壳081的底板上,即第一基板610连接光接收下壳081的底板。为便于第一基板610在光接收下壳081上的装配,如图19所示方向,第一基板610长度方向的底边设置第一缺角617和第二缺角618,第一缺角617设置在第一基板610底部的一侧,第二缺角618设置在第一基板610底部的另一侧,第一缺角617和第二缺角618被配置为第一基板610底部避让光接收下壳081的侧壁,便于第一基板610的装配。

光放大组件500中SOA在工作过程时,当将SOA的光放大增益稳定在某个固定值时,需要给SOA施加稳定驱动电流;同时,因为SOA易受温度影响,在同样的驱动电流下,不同温度,SOA的光放大增益不一样,因此为确定SOA的光放大增益需要将SOA保持在一定的温度范围,进而才能使SOA的工作性能表现更佳。因此本公开一些实施例中,光接收组件208还包括TEC(Thermo Electric Cooler,半导体致冷器),TEC被配置为SOA工作温度的稳定。
