1. An optoelectronic package enabling optical communication with an optical fiber, the package comprising:

  • a rigid base substrate having a first face and a second face that are angled relative to one another and electrical traces that extend from the first face to the second face, the base substrate being suitable for supporting photonic device on the second face of the base substrate and being suitable for aligning the photonic device with an external optical fiber when the optical fiber is mechanically engaged with the package at the second face of the block;

    a semiconductor chip assembly mounted on the first face of the base substrate, the semiconductor chip assembly having a plurality of first contacts that are electrically coupled to associated traces on the base substrate; and

    a photonic device mounted on the second face of the base substrate, the photonic device having at least one active facet thereon and having a plurality of second contacts that are electrically coupled to associated traces on the base substrate.
