  • Patent number: 8340522
    Abstract: There is provided a filter assembly for combining a wavelength multiplexed optical signal by multiplexing optical signals of different wavelength emitted from respective optical devices, and/or for dividing a wavelength multiplexed optical signal into optical signals of different wavelength and causing the optical signals of different wavelength to enter respective optical devices. This filter assembly comprises: a light transmitting member within which each optical signal propagates; plural optical filters disposed on an upper face of the light transmitting member at a predetermined spacing wherein each optical signal passes through the optical filters; upper reflective layers respectively provided between adjacent ones of the optical filters; and a lower reflective layer provided on a lower face of the light transmitting member, and wherein the wavelength multiplexed optical signal propagates along the same optical path within the light transmitting member.

  • Patent number: 7290944
    Abstract: A board assembly, an optical transceiver using same, and a method for mounting a board assembly that can relax a stress occurred at a flexible board. A board assembly 1 comprises a flexible board 2, a first rigid board 3, and a second rigid board 4. The first rigid board 3 and the second rigid board 4 are connected with each other by means of the flexible board 2. Since the flexible board 2 is preformed before the attachment, the stress occurred at the flexible board 2 can be relaxed.
