Patent Images
1. A light-receiving module comprising:
- a semiconductor light-receiving device for converting an optical signal to an electrical signal;
a first lead terminal for outputting the electrical signal converted by the semiconductor light-receiving device, the first lead terminal having a first diameter;
a second lead terminal for providing an power supply to the semiconductor light-receiving device, the second lead terminal having a second diameter greater than the first diameter; and
a metal body for installing the semiconductor light-receiving device thereon, the metal body having a plurality of through holes having an inner surface for passing the first lead terminal and the second lead terminal, wherein the light-receiving module is sealed by filling up a sealant only in an opening between the first lead terminal and the inner surface of the through hole and between the second terminal and the inner surface of the through hole.

Abstract
This invention relates to a light-receiving module in which transmission impedance of lead terminals are matched by simple method. The module has a semiconductor light-receiving device, such as a photo diode, a plurality of lead terminals for transmitting an electrical signal converted by the semiconductor device, and a metal base with a plurality of through holes, the lead terminals passes therethrough. The diameter of the lead terminal for signal transmission is smaller as compared with that of other lead terminal and the diameter of the through holes is adjusted and filled by a sealant glass with a dielectric constant so as to match the impedance thereof.
