Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optoelectronic hybrid integrated packaging, and in particular to a low heat consumption transceiver module co-packaged with optoelectronic chips. Background Art

[0002] RF transceiver modules play an important role in RF signal transmission and communication. Microwave photonics technology can improve the broadband performance of RF transceiver modules due to its high-frequency and broadband characteristics. The electro-optical modulator in microwave photonics technology serves as an electro-optical conversion unit, which can realize the receiving function of the RF transceiver module, receive RF signals and convert them into the optical domain, and transmit them through optical signals. The photodetector in microwave photonics technology serves as a photoelectric conversion unit, which receives optical signals and converts them into RF signal output, and can realize the transmitting function of the RF transceiver module. Therefore, the electro-optical modulator and the photodetector are integrated into one module, which can also have RF transceiver functions. There are currently a variety of optoelectronic transceiver module solutions, but there are still some shortcomings, mainly for the following three reasons:

[0003] 1. The optoelectronic transceiver module is an important link in connecting microwaves and light waves. In order to avoid the size limitation of RF connectors, the current highly integrated microwave circuits often adopt the form of integrated packaging by mounting microwave components on printed circuit boards, thereby further improving the integration of microwave systems. However, the electro-optic modulator with independent package requires a control loop formed by optical beam splitters, monitoring photodetection chips, control circuits and other devices to stabilize the bias operating point; the photodetector with independent package needs to place the bias circuit, matching circuit, and transimpedance amplifier chip as close to the photodetector as possible to reduce the impact of parasitic parameters on high-frequency performance; the RF interface of the electro-optic modulator and photodetector with independent package is generally SMA, SMP, SSMP and other interfaces and connectors. Therefore, the optoelectronic transceiver module built by electro-optic modulators and photodetectors with independent packages has problems such as large size and incompatibility of interfaces with highly integrated microwave circuit interfaces.

[0004] 2. The conversion efficiency of the laser is low, so when the laser produces strong laser output, it will be accompanied by a large heat loss, and generally requires a corresponding heat sink and heat dissipation device. Integrating the laser, electro-optic modulator, photodetector and supporting heat dissipation devices into one module will result in a large module heat loss and size.

[0005] 3. The electro-optic modulation chip, photoelectric detection chip and supporting driver chip are packaged together in one module with low heat consumption characteristics. However, due to the large number of electro-optic modulation chips, photoelectric detection chips and supporting driver chips, all chips are spread out in the horizontal direction for interconnection, and the vertical dimension cannot be fully utilized for integration, which will cause the horizontal size of the entire module to be larger.

The monitoring optical port 31 is located on the lower surface of the monitoring photodetection chip 3, and the monitoring output port 32 is located on the upper surface of the monitoring photodetection chip 3; the monitoring optical port 31 of the monitoring photodetection chip 3 coincides with the monitoring optical coupling port 25 of the electro-optical modulation chip 2; the monitoring output port 32 is wire-bonded to the first base 5, and the monitoring output port 32 is wire-bonded to the monitoring input port 71 of the control chip 7 in sequence through the first base surface wiring 54, the first base metal via 55, the second base metal via 62 and the bottom plate surface wiring 93.

[0040] In this embodiment, the receiving photodetection chip 4 is bonded or welded to the upper surface of the first base 5, and the receiving photodetection chip 4 has a photosensitive surface 41 and a radio frequency output electrode 42; the photosensitive surface 41 is located on the side of the receiving photodetection chip 4, and the radio frequency output electrode 42 is located on the bottom surface of the receiving photodetection chip 4, and the radio frequency output electrode 42 is wire-bonded to the bias capacitor 65, the bias inductor 66 and the matching load 64 welded on the upper surface of the second base 6 through the first base surface wiring 54, the first base metal via 55 and the second base surface wiring 63 in sequence; the radio frequency output electrode 42 of the receiving photodetection chip 4 is wire-bonded to the amplification input port 81 of the transimpedance amplifier chip 8 through the first base surface wiring 54, the first base metal via 55, the second base metal via 62 and the bottom plate surface wiring 93 in sequence.

[0041] In the specific working process of the low heat consumption transceiver module of the optoelectronic chip co-package of this embodiment, the optoelectronic transceiver signal flow includes the following two aspects:

[0042] 1. Electro-optical modulation reception: The external input RF signal is fed in through the bottom solder ball 95 on the bottom plate 9, and is fed into the RF input electrode 22 through the bottom plate metal via 94, the second base metal via 62, the first base metal via 55 and the first base surface wiring 54 through wire bonding in sequence. The second input optical fiber 12 inputs the optical signal through the input optical coupling port 21, and is divided into two paths in the electro-optical modulation chip 2. The two optical signals are electro-optically converted through the RF input electrode 22 of the electro-optical modulation chip 2. After the two optical fields are coherent, they are divided into two outputs. One path is coupled into the output optical fiber 3 through the output optical coupling port 24 of the electro-optical modulation chip 2 for modulated optical signal output, completing the electro-optical modulation reception function; the other optical signal loaded with the RF signal is converted into an electrical signal output on the monitoring photoelectric detection chip 3 through the monitoring optical coupling port 25 of the electro-optical modulation chip 2. By controlling the bias voltage of the electro-optic modulator chip 2, the electro-optic modulator chip 2 can be adjusted to different bias operating points such as the orthogonal operating point (Quad+, Quad-), the maximum output point (Peak), the minimum output point (NULL), etc. Due to the characteristics of the electro-optic modulator chip 2 itself, the operating point of the electro-optic modulator chip 2 will slowly drift with the change of environmental factors such as temperature, resulting in the system indicators such as output optical power and radio frequency signal modulation efficiency also slowly drifting. In actual use, it is necessary to collect the monitoring signal output by the monitoring photoelectric detection chip 3 through the control chip 7, compare the monitoring signal with the bias operating point setting value, and adjust the bias output port 72 voltage of the control chip 7 according to the comparison result to form a closed-loop control, so as to achieve the bias operating point of the electro-optic modulator chip 2 is consistent with the program setting value. Commonly used electro-optic modulator chip 2 bias operating point control methods include bias control methods based on jamming signal monitoring and bias control methods based on output light intensity monitoring. The control program update and download of the control chip 7 is fed in through the bottom solder ball 95 of the bottom plate 9, and then transmitted to the download input port 73 of the control chip 7 through the bottom plate metal via 94 and the bottom plate surface wiring 93. The status output port 74 of the control chip 7 is connected to the bottom solder ball 95 through the bottom plate surface wiring 93 and the bottom plate metal via 94 in turn, and the status signal of the control chip 7 is output through the bottom solder ball 95.

[0043] 2. Photoelectric detection and emission: The optical signal input by the first input optical fiber 11 is converted into photoelectric signal by the receiving photoelectric detection chip 4, and a radio frequency emission signal is output. The radio frequency signal is sequentially input into the transimpedance amplifier chip 8 through the first base surface wiring 54, the first base metal via 55, the second base metal via 62, the bottom plate surface wiring 93 and the amplifier input port 81. The radio frequency signal amplified by the transimpedance amplifier chip 8 is sequentially output through the amplifier output port 82, the bottom plate surface wiring 93, the bottom plate metal via 94 and the bottom solder ball 95, and the amplified radio frequency emission signal is output, thereby completing the photoelectric detection and emission function.
