ABSTRACT:
An optoelectric interconnect (70) includes an optical fiber (17) coupled to a ferrule (11) and an optoelectric board (20). Metal layer (14) is disposed over a surface (12) of the ferrule (11). An optoelectric device (61) is coupled to the optoelectric board (20) using tape automated bonding tapes (47, 51). The optoelectric board (20) and the ferrule (11) are positioned adjacent each-other so that optical radiation is transmitted from the optoelectric device (61) to the optical fiber (17). The position of the optoelectric device (61) is adjusted to achieve an optimum position which is characterized by a maximum optical radiation transmitted to the optical fiber(17). Upon achieving the optimum position, two bonding strips (54, 56) are fused with the metal layer (14) on the surface (12) of the ferrule (11).
