The advancement of fiber optics and optoelectronics has dramatically increased the bandwidth for communication. In order to serve interactive and multimedia needs, one-way cable television distribution systems will soon move into the two-way telecommunications arena. To achieve this goal, low cost laser transmitters and receivers are under development. Among many innovative technologies, passive alignment has demonstrated a great potential for reducing packaging cost. As an example, we implemented silicon waferboard technology, which was licensed from GTE, for the packaging of low cost optoelectronic components. In this paper, we will present the development work on a fiber pigtailed CATV PIN receiver module. |
