Abstract

PURPOSE:To shorten the assembling time by providing a wiring pattern in a package incorporating a light receiving element without using any submount and soldering the light receiving element directly to the wiring pattern thereby reducing the number of components and the work steps. CONSTITUTION:A wiring pattern 7 for connecting a light receiving element array 1 electrically with a driver IC 5 is formed on a package 3. The IC 5 and the light receiving array 1 are then mounted on the package 3 and connected electrically through an Au wire 6. When the light receiving array 1 is mounted on the package 3, each electrode of a plurality of light receiving elements is soldered to each electrode of the wiring pattern 7 formed on the package 3. When the optical axis is adjusted to transmit the light while keeping one and one correspondence between the light receiving element and an optical fiber before fixing thereof, number of the compositions members can be decreased and the assembling time is shortened resulting in an inexpensive light receiving module.

In the conventional optical receiver module, the light receiving element is mounted on the submount as described above, and the submount is fixed to the package by using solder or the like. Further, electrically, the optical element and the submount are electrically connected by a wire (Au wire), and the submount is also connected to the optical element drive circuit by the wire. Therefore, it is necessary to form a pad and a wiring pattern for mounting an optical element on the submount. As a result, the price of the submount becomes expensive, and the reduction in price will also be hindered. Further, the use of the submount increases the number of parts, which is an obstacle to the reduction of the work process and the work time.
