Patent ID: 7657136

Claim:
An optoelectronic integrated circuit device comprising: a substrate having four sides; an LSI package mounted on said substrate; and a first photonic device electrically connected to an I/O terminal disposed on one side of said LSI package; a second photonic device electrically connected to an I/O terminal disposed on an opposite side of said LSI package; a third photonic device electrically connected to an I/O terminal disposed on a side of said LSI package adjacent to said one side; a fourth photonic device electrically connected to an I/O terminal disposed on a side of said LSI package opposite to said adjacent side; a first connector mounting groove and a third connector mounting groove optically coupled to said first and third photonic devices, respectively, through optical waveguides, the first connector mounting groove and the third connector mounting groove for mounting a first connector and a second connector, respectively, to which first ends of a first optical fiber and a second optical fiber, respectively, are connected, said first optical fiber and said second optical fiber being connected at respective other ends to respective external components or devices outside said substrate; wherein said first and third connector mounting grooves are disposed along one side of said substrate.
