Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, the small inductance of the additional bonding wire in this circuit form produces unwanted gain (pulse peaking) in the small-signal pass characteristic (S21) of the optical modulator
As a result, even if the bonding wire length to the ground electrode is shortened within the mountable range to improve the characteristics, it is difficult to obtain good output waveform quality

Abstract

An optical transmission module of the invention uses a semiconductor chip (22) forming an optical modulator integrated laser on a semi-insulating semiconductor board (23). An input transfer line (27) and an anode electrode of an optical modulator element (21) are connected by a first bonding wire (31). The anode electrode of the optical modulator element (21) and one of the ends of a terminal resistor element (24) are connected by a second bonding wire (32). A cathode electrode of the optical modulator element (21) and the other end of the terminal resistor element (24) are connected by a third bonding wire (33). The cathode electrode of the optical modulator element (21) and a ground electrode (25) are connected by a fourth bonding wire (34). A joint portion between the first bonding wire (31) and the input transfer line (27) is arranged on an opposite side to a joint portion between the fourth bonding wire (34) and the ground electrode (25) while interposing the semiconductor chip (22) between them.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an optical transmission module for optical communication, and more particularly to an optical transmission module used in a transmission unit of an optical wireless transceiver having a high-speed transmission rate (for example, 10 Gbit / s). Background technique [0002] An optical transmission module using a semiconductor laser is one of the key components of a wireless transceiver for optical fiber transmission. With the spread of broadband networks in recent years, the speed of optical transmission modules is being sought, and optical transmission modules with a bit rate of 10 Gbit / s are widely used. As an optical transmission module suitable for the above-mentioned application, it is strongly required to realize good transmission waveform quality while being small and low-cost. [0003] Conventionally, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-257412 (corresponding to U.S. Patent No. 6,823,145 ) and Japanese Patent Laid-Op...
