Description

The detection of fiber optic emitter optical secondary module and assemble method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of fiber optic emitter optical secondary module (OSA, Transceiver OpticalSub-Assembly) detection and assemble method, more particularly, relate to a kind of optic fibre hole that when the assembling function assembly, utilizes an image detector with its sampling camera lens alignment housings body, make sampling camera lens focus furnishing and optical coupling face copline, and directly the light beam of mat functional unit pass lens and the luminous point of being presented in optical coupling face as detected object, aim at the detection and the assemble method of contraposition functional unit is carried out the non-fiber formula.
Background technology
In photoelectricity transmission, optical secondary module (the OSA of fiber optic emitter, Transceiver OpticalSub-Assembly), can be divided into transmitter optical secondary module TOSA (Transceiver Optical Sub-Assembly) and receiver optical secondary module ROSA (ReceiverOptical Sub-Assembly) with the difference of functional unit, wherein, TOSA is used to provide functional unit to optical fiber, as semiconductor laser to optical fiber or light-emitting diode to optical fiber, make electric signal (Electrical Signal) convert light to and through lens focus transmission again in optical fiber.
Optical secondary module (OSA, Optical Sub-Assembly) so far through research and development, existing multiple different manufacture method, wherein utilize the manufacture method of transparent heat molding material and mat plastics ejection forming technique to become main flow because of cost is lower, comprise U.S. Pat 5,631,991, [PLASTIC OPTICALSUBASSEMBLLES FOR LIGHT TRANSFER BETWEEN AN OPTICAL FIBER AND ANOPTOELECTRIC CONVERTER AND THE FABRICATION OF SUCH PLASTIC OPTICALSUBASSMBLLIES]; Or US 6,432,733 B1[METHOD FOR PRODUCING AN OPTICALMODULE], and the US shown in Fig. 16,302,596 B1[SMALL FORM FACTOR OPTOELECTRICTRANSCEIVERS], however above-mentioned conventional art has following point and shortcoming during fabrication:
1. the shell body A2 of optical secondary module A1 is the single type structure of one ejection formation, the one end is provided with for assembling optical fiber with 20 hole A3, and the other end is provided with the hole A4 of confession assembling function assembly 30 usefulness, is provided with a lens A5 between hole A3 and hole A4, these lens A5 can be one-body molded with shell body A2, as shown in Figure 1, can be not one-body molded yet, as US 5,631,991 or US 6,432,733 B1 shown in; Since the mould of shell body A2 to offer difficulty higher, also be difficult to control the moulding quality of its ejection formation body, especially the quality of the lens face A6 (light emergence face) of the lens A5 shown in Fig. 1, thereby influence the quality of finished of optical secondary module A1, product qualified rate is reduced, increase the trouble of calibration or assembling operation simultaneously, relatively increased cost.
2. the traditional detection of optical secondary module A1 and assembling mode generally are the positions that the mat optical coupling efficiency comes the adjusting function assembly, promptly when functional unit is assembled on the shell body, optical fiber 20 has been set in the A3 of hole, utilize detecting instrument mat optical coupling efficiency to come the position of adjusting function assembly by optical fiber again, to aim at contraposition adjustment operation, even need adjust the focus point size and location of laser beam behind lens A5 of functional unit this moment according to specification, and be coupled to the optical fiber end that is assembled in the A3 of hole, and finish the finished product (with reference to the specification of the relevant Launched power of the TIA/EIA-455-203 of international telecommunication association distributionmeasurement procedure for graded-index multi-mode fiber transmitters) that meets the specification; Yet should tradition adjustment detection operation be to utilize detecting instrument to cooperate the optical fiber end of having assembled, the mat optical coupling efficiency comes the position of adjusting function assembly, be not that the size of direct mat light beam and position are with optimization Optical Fiber Transmission frequency range, therefore, this mode is difficult to reach effectively and accurate the detection, easily influences the quality of finished of optical secondary module A1.
3. the detection mode that above-mentioned still more mat optical coupling efficiency comes the adjusting function module position, potential have a lot of changes that influence testing result because of, as: the optical fiber quality all has certain tolerance to exist, and the quality of functional unit is not fixed (transmitting power as laser diode is exactly non-constant remaining unchanged) yet, easily cause the error of TOSA finished product detection quality, attempt example explanation: detect qualified finished product in a conventional manner and be to be based upon fully and carry out functional unit and aim at the transmitting power of the used at that time functional unit of contraposition operation or the quality specification of used optical fiber, therefore detect qualified finished product in a conventional manner, its qualified quality might be only effective to used at that time functional unit or optical fiber, if use in the different time different location, be that the user changes slotting other optical fiber, then because of before, the optical fiber that use the back has error range, may have the quality condition of poor takes place, thereby cause quality of finished to grasp really, qualification rate can't be improved, and cost improves relatively.
At shell body A2 in above-mentioned the 1st is the shortcoming of one ejection formation single type structure, creator of the present invention has done improvement, shell body is designed to the structure of two-piece type, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, the shell body of this optical secondary module is made up of one first shell body B1 and two housings of one second shell body B2, the end of the first shell body B1 is provided with for linking the hole B3 that optical fiber B4 uses, the corresponding end of the second shell body B2 is provided with for linking the hole B5 that functional unit B6 uses, this shell body is the structure of two-piece type and has applied for the Taiwan patent, application number is 92200404, but no matter shell body is single type structure or two-part construction, still faces the problem that has in the above-mentioned the 2nd and the 3rd on making.
Summary of the invention
