ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor die, either an optical emitter or detector, is attached to an end of an optical fiber. Electrical connections on the semiconductor die are electrically coupled to a circuit board of a module. The electrical coupling is maintained by a removable cover that holds the connections on the semiconductor die in contact with the circuit board. The cover, along with the optical fiber and semiconductor die, can be removed from the module and reattached without effecting the optical coupling between the semiconductor die and the optical fiber.
