[0031] Next, in combination with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0032] Embodiment 1, the present invention provides an optical communication receiving device based on TO46 package as shown in Figure 1 - Figure 8 . The device includes a nickel-plated TO46 base 1.

The PCB board 4 is used for the electrical connection between the photoelectric chip 5 and the transimpedance amplifier 6 and the nickel-plated TO46 base 1.
[0033] It should be noted that TO represents coaxial package, and 46 in TO46 means that the diameter of the TO cap is 4.6 mm. The diameter of the TO base is larger than that of the cap at the two parts where they are welded together. The radius of the top part is smaller than that of the bottom part, so as to support the cover body structure through the bottom.
[0034] The photoelectric chip 5, as a photosensitive element, is used to convert the light intensity into current; and it is of APD, PD type. The depletion layer of APD is heavily doped so that it can withstand high voltage. After photo-generated carriers are generated, they are accelerated by a high-voltage electric field, causing them to continue to collide with other atoms, generating more photo-generated carriers, achieving a multiplication effect similar to avalanche, and greatly improving the sensitivity of the receiver.
[0035] The transimpedance amplifier 6 is an amplifier that converts an input current into an output voltage. It is commonly used in applications such as photodetectors to convert optical signals into electrical signals.

The input current flows into the operational amplifier through the feedback resistor, and the operational amplifier generates an output voltage according to the values of the input current and the feedback resistor.

The photoelectric chip 5 is electrically connected to the top of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1, and the photoelectric chip 5 passes through the placement groove. Electric connection components for electrical connection are arranged between the photoelectric chip 5 and the transimpedance amplifier 6 and the top of the PCB board 4.
[0037] It should be noted that through the design of the PCB board 4 in this solution, the signal capacitance and inductance can be adjusted to stabilize the signal output by bridging the leads of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1 and the photoelectric chip 5, thereby ensuring the stability of signal reception.
[0038] Further, the power connection component includes a power connection coil 7 and a conductive sheet 8. The power connection coil 7 is arranged at the top end of the PCB board 4 and located at the notch of the placement groove.

[0039] A cover structure is sleeved on the outer wall of the top of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1.
[0040] Specifically, a plurality of connection plugs 101 are arranged around the side of the top end of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1, and the plurality of connection plugs 101 are used to assist in the docking of the cover structure and the nickel-plated TO46 base 1.
[0041] Further, the cover structure includes:
[0042] An optical metal tube cap 2, and a plurality of docking jacks are opened on the side of the bottom of the optical metal tube cap 2, and the plurality of docking jacks are respectively slidably inserted and connected with the plurality of connection plugs 101;
[0043] With such a structural design, the optical metal tube cap 2 can be more stably sleeved on the top of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1.
[0044] A condenser cover 3, the condenser cover 3 is arranged in the middle of the top end of the optical metal tube cap 2, the condenser cover 3 is a convex hemispherical structure, and the condenser cover 3 is used to condense light to the optoelectronic chip 5.
[0045] It should be noted that the optical fiber is focused to the APD through the condenser cover 3, and the photosensitive surface filter of the PD optoelectronic chip 5.
[0046] The cover structure is used to cover the top of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1, and a plurality of pin mechanisms are inserted through the bottom of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1, and the plurality of pin mechanisms are used for power connection.
[0047] Specifically, a plurality of through holes are vertically and penetratingly opened on the side of the top ends of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1 and the PCB board 4, and the plurality of through holes are all used to insert the pin mechanisms, and power connection structures for assisting the pin mechanisms to conduct electricity with the PCB board 4 are arranged at the plurality of through holes.
[0048] Further, the power connection structure includes solder pads 9, and the plurality of solder pads 9 are all arranged at the top end of the PCB board 4 and are respectively located at the plurality of through holes. Power connection tubes 901 are arranged at the bottom ends of the plurality of solder pads 9 and located in the through holes. The top of the pin mechanism is inserted into the middle of the power connection tube 901 and penetrates through the top end of the PCB board 4. The bottom radius of the through hole opened in the nickel-plated TO46 base 1 is twice the top radius.
[0049] Specifically, the pin mechanism includes:
[0050] Connecting pin 11, the top of the connecting pin 11 is inserted and connected to the middle part of the power connection tube 901;
[0051] Connection cap 10, the connection cap 10 is sleeved on the top of the connecting pin 11, and a guiding member 13 for assisting the power connection of the connecting pin 11 is arranged on the inner wall of the connection cap 10;
[0052] Restricting sleeve 12, the restricting sleeve 12 is sleeved on the top of the connecting pin 11, the restricting sleeve 12 is inserted and connected to the bottom area of the through-hole of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1, and a plurality of extrusion blocks 1201 are arranged on the outer wall of the restricting sleeve 12.

[0054] It should be noted that, as shown in Figure 8 When shown, it is the initial state of the guiding member 13 at the connection cap 10. At this time, the bent clamping part 1302 is inclined towards the area close to the middle of the connection cap 10, and the first contact part 1304 and the second contact part 1305 are inclined towards the area close to the middle of the connection cap 10. In this way, during the insertion process of the connecting pin 11, the top of the connecting pin 11 first squeezes the second contact part 1305 in the direction away from each other, which drives the extrusion connection ring 1303 to make the first contact part 1304 closely adhere to the inner wall of the power connection tube 901. At the same time, during the continuous upward insertion process of the connecting pin 11, the bent clamping part 1302 will be squeezed, and it will react to clamp the top of the connecting pin 11.

[0057] S2, place the optoelectronic chip 5 at the top of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1 and in the placement groove, and then electrically connect the transimpedance amplifier 6 to the corresponding circuit at the top of the PCB board 4;

[0059] S4. Press the connection cap 10 onto the top of the PCB board 4 and align it with the through-hole. Then, insert the connection pin 11 with the limiting sleeve 12 upward from the bottom of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1 into the through-hole. At this time, the bottom area of the through-hole of the nickel-plated TO46 base 1 cooperates with the extrusion block 1201 to squeeze and limit the limiting sleeve 12. At the same time, during the insertion process of the connection pin 11, the top of the connection pin 11 first squeezes the second contact part 1305 in the direction away from each other, which drives the extrusion connection ring 1303 to make the first contact part 1304 closely adhere to the inner wall of the power connection tube 901. At the same time, during the continuous upward insertion process of the connection pin 11, the bending and clamping part 1302 will be squeezed, and it will react to clamp the top of the connection pin 11.
