[0027] While some embodiments of the general concept of this disclosure have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that changes may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the general concept of this disclosure, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.

[0028] Figure 1 The diagram schematically illustrates the structure of an array of high-frequency optoelectronic devices in a vertically spaced multiplexed package according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the platform according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the first embodiment of this disclosure provides a vertically spaced multiplexed array high-frequency optoelectronic device, comprising: a package shell 1, wherein multiple platforms 11 for mounting chips are disposed within the package shell 1; multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2, mounted on the multiple platforms 11; multiple high-frequency package structures 3, corresponding one-to-one with and connected to the multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2, for realizing input or output connection of high-frequency microwave signals; multiple low-frequency package structures 4, corresponding one-to-one with and connected to the multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2, for realizing input or output connection of low-frequency microwave signals; and multiple optical package structures 5, corresponding one-to-one with and connected to the multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2, for realizing input or output of optical signals; wherein the high-frequency package structures 3 and the low-frequency package structures 4 are located at different vertical heights in vertical space.

[0030] In this embodiment, multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2 form an array structure.

[0031] By integrating multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2 into an array within a package 1, this device can simultaneously process multiple optical and electrical signals, thereby significantly improving the system's total data throughput and transmission capacity. This arrayed structure is the core supporting modern high-speed optical communication (such as data center interconnection and coherent transmission) and parallel sensing applications, highlighting the necessity and superiority of vertical spatial multiplexing packaging technology. It effectively solves the problems of high-frequency, low-frequency, and optical path layout congestion and mutual interference that are drastically aggravated by chip arraying, ensuring that the performance of each channel in the array can approach the optimal level of a single channel, and avoiding performance degradation caused by integration.

[0032] In this embodiment, a slot 12 is provided between multiple platforms 11, and multiple low-frequency packaging structures 4 are installed in the slot 12.

[0033] This embodiment achieves an efficient and reliable space reuse scheme by setting up slots 12 between the high-frequency optoelectronic chip mounting platforms 11 and using them to mount the low-frequency packaging structure 4. Its technical effects are mainly reflected in two aspects: First, it creates a physically "sunken" space, naturally placing low-frequency circuits (such as DC bias lines and control lines) below the main plane where the high-frequency circuits and optical paths are located, achieving true vertical layering. This provides a clean, unobstructed layout space for high-frequency transmission lines and optical coupling components on the main plane, effectively reducing the parallel trace length between high-frequency and low-frequency signals, thereby reducing electromagnetic coupling and crosstalk. Second, integrating low-frequency components using the slot structure helps maintain the compactness and mechanical strength of the overall package shell 1. Simultaneously, this integrated design facilitates better thermal management, as the slot area can serve as part of the heat dissipation path, improving the overall reliability of the package.

[0034] In this embodiment, multiple low-frequency packaging structures 4 are located below the plane containing multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2.

[0035] In this embodiment, there is a one-to-one correspondence between multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2 and multiple low-frequency packaging structures 4, and the multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2 and multiple low-frequency packaging structures 4 are connected across layers by gold wires, gold strips or solder.

[0036] In this embodiment, there is a one-to-one correspondence between multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2 and multiple high-frequency packaging structures 3, and the multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2 and multiple high-frequency packaging structures 3 are connected by gold wires, gold strips or solder.

[0037] Using gold wire, gold strip, or solder for connections ensures good conductivity and mechanical stability. By carefully designing the paths and geometries of these vertical interconnects, it is possible to ensure that low-frequency signals can be transmitted to the chip stably and with low loss, while avoiding unnecessary electromagnetic interference from these interconnect structures to nearby high-frequency transmission lines.

[0038] In this embodiment, the high-frequency optoelectronic chip 2 is fixed to the low-frequency packaging structure 4 by a mechanical support structure.

[0039] In this embodiment, the array high-frequency optoelectronic device with vertical space multiplexing packaging further includes: a metal carrier for supporting at least one of multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2, multiple high-frequency packaging structures 3, multiple low-frequency packaging structures 4, and multiple optical packaging structures 5.

[0040] In this embodiment, the encapsulation shell 1, multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2, multiple high-frequency encapsulation structures 3, multiple low-frequency encapsulation structures 4, and multiple optical encapsulation structures 5 are fixed together by adhesive or solder.

[0041] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of an array of high-frequency optoelectronic devices in a vertically spaced multiplexed package according to a second embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the platform according to a second embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.

[0042] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the second embodiment of this disclosure provides a vertically spaced multiplexed array high-frequency optoelectronic device, comprising: a package shell 1, wherein multiple platforms 11 for mounting chips are disposed within the package shell 1; multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2, mounted on the multiple platforms 11; multiple high-frequency package structures 3, connected to the multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2, for realizing input or output connection of high-frequency microwave signals; multiple low-frequency package structures 4, connected to the multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2, for realizing input or output connection of low-frequency microwave signals; and multiple optical package structures 5, corresponding one-to-one with the multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2, for realizing input or output of optical signals; wherein the high-frequency package structures 3 and the low-frequency package structures 4 are located at different vertical heights in vertical space.

[0043] In this embodiment, each of the multiple platforms 11 is provided with a recess 13, and multiple low-frequency packaging structures 4 are mounted on the recess 13.

[0044] This embodiment provides a refined local space management solution by mounting the low-frequency packaging structure 4 on each platform 11 using recessed platforms 13. Its technical advantage lies in achieving close-range, modular, co-located integration of low-frequency circuits and high-frequency optoelectronic chips. By placing the low-frequency structure within the recessed platforms 13, its top surface can be flush with or slightly lower than the chip mounting surface, thus freeing up valuable space in the vertical direction for high-frequency or optical components, avoiding structural conflicts, and improving the consistency of packaging manufacturing.

[0045] In this embodiment, multiple low-frequency packaging structures 4 are located above the plane containing multiple high-frequency optoelectronic chips 2.

[0046] It should be noted that the details not covered in the second embodiment are similar to those in the first embodiment. Please refer to the first embodiment for further details, which will not be repeated here.

[0047] The core technical achievement of this disclosure lies in fundamentally solving the multi-physics space competition problem in the packaging of arrayed high-frequency optoelectronic devices through a "vertical space reuse" architecture. Specifically, by layering the high-frequency packaging structure 3 and the low-frequency packaging structure 4 vertically, the limitations of side-by-side arrangement in traditional planar packaging are broken, greatly freeing up space resources on the two-dimensional plane. This allows for the planning of dedicated physical spaces that do not interfere with each other for the high-frequency signal path, low-frequency signal path, and optical signal path of each channel within the limited volume of the package 1, providing a feasible technical path for achieving higher channel counts, smaller size, and higher performance.

Based on design preferences, it should be understood that the specific order or hierarchy of steps in the process may be rearranged without departing from the scope of this disclosure.

Furthermore, the shapes, sizes, and positional relationships of the components in the drawings do not reflect their actual size, scale, or actual positional relationships.

[0050] In the detailed description above, various features are combined together in a single embodiment to simplify this disclosure. This approach to disclosure should not be construed as reflecting an intention that embodiments of the claimed subject matter require more features than are explicitly stated in each claim. Rather, as reflected in the appended claims, this disclosure is in a state of having fewer features than all of the features of the single disclosed embodiment.
