[0002] In an EML optical device, there is generally a carrier board. One end of the carrier board is connected to an LD (Laser Diode) chip through a gold wire, and the other end is connected to the base of the EML optical device through a gold wire. Impedance mismatches will occur at both of these connection points. Impedance mismatch refers to the situation of unmatched impedance in an electronic circuit or communication system, that is, the signal transmission problem caused by the inconsistent impedance between the signal source and the load. Due to the unmatched impedance, problems such as reflection, attenuation, and power loss occur during signal transmission. Impedance mismatch can affect signal quality, interfere with transmission, and limit system performance. Therefore, an interconnection structure is needed to reduce the problem of bandwidth reduction caused by impedance mismatch at the gold wire. Summary of the Utility Model

Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.

[0020] Embodiment:

[0021] This embodiment provides an EML optical device carrier board interconnection structure. Referring to Figure 1 as shown, the interconnection structure includes a substrate 1 and a first pad group 2, a first transmission line 3, a second transmission line 4, a third transmission line 5, a fourth transmission line 6, and a fifth transmission line 7 on the substrate 1. Among them, the first transmission line 3, the second transmission line 4, the third transmission line 5, the fourth transmission line 6, and the fifth transmission line 7 are sequentially connected end to end to form a multi-stage interconnection structure. The first transmission line 3 in the multi-stage interconnection structure is connected to the first pad group 2, the fifth transmission line 7 is connected to the pad 8 of the laser chip, and at the same time, the first pad group 2 is also connected to the second pad group 10 on the substrate 9 of the EML optical device base.

[0022] For the above EML optical device carrier board interconnection structure provided by the present utility model, the connection between the first pad group 2 and the second pad group 10 on the substrate 9 of the EML optical device base forms impedance matching, and the connection between the fifth transmission line 7 and the pad 8 of the laser chip forms impedance matching. The first transmission line 3, the second transmission line 4, the third transmission line 5, and the fourth transmission line 6 between them form a multi-stage interconnection structure. The multi-stage interconnection structure can greatly reduce the reflection of the entire interconnection channel in the frequency domain and improve the product performance.

[0023] The following is a specific description of the EML optical device carrier board interconnection structure.

[0024] As a specific implementation of the first pad group 2 and the second pad group 10, the first pad group 2 is embedded on one side of the substrate 1 close to the EML optical device base substrate 9, and is matched with the second pad group 10 on the EML optical device base substrate 9 through the first gold wire bonding connection. The spacing between the first pad group 2 and the second pad group 10 is matched, which can meet the bonding of at least two gold wires. In addition, two via holes for return current are provided on the two GND pads of the first pad group 2 to provide a return path for high-speed signals.

[0025] As a specific implementation of the multi-level interconnection structure, multiple transmission lines form a multi-level interconnection structure. The multiple transmission lines include a first transmission line 3, a second transmission line 4, a third transmission line 5, a fourth transmission line 6, and a fifth transmission line 7. The multiple transmission lines are all embedded in the substrate 1 and are connected end to end in sequence. The first transmission line 3 is connected to the first pad group 2, and the fifth transmission line 7 and the pad 8 of the laser chip are matched through the second gold wire bonding connection. The line width of the first transmission line 3 is smaller than that of the second transmission line 4, and the line width of the second transmission line 4 satisfies an impedance of 50 ohms. The impedance of the first transmission line 3 is between the first gold wire and the second transmission line 4, which can make the impedance drop between the gold wire and the 50-ohm impedance line slower. Similarly, the line width of the third transmission line 5 is smaller than that of the fourth transmission line 6, and the line width of the fourth transmission line 6 is smaller than that of the fifth transmission line 7, which is also to avoid too large a drop in impedance during the impedance change process. At the same time, the impedance of the second gold wire between the fifth transmission line 7 and the laser chip 8 is higher than 50 ohms, so the line width of the fifth transmission line 7 is larger than that of the second transmission line 4, and the fifth transmission line 7 can introduce a part of capacitance to reduce the impedance at the gold wire. In addition, a GND via hole is provided at the bottom of the laser chip for high-speed signals to return to the negative pole of the chip. The above multi-level interconnection structure mainly changes the segmented interconnection impedance by changing the line width of the transmission line, thereby being able to greatly reduce the reflection of the entire interconnection channel in the frequency domain and improve the product performance.

[0026] Those skilled in the art of the present technology should understand that the present utility model can be implemented in many other specific forms without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
