An optical receiver according to one embodiment includes a transimpedance amplifier including a first pad, a second pad provided on an insulating layer, connected to a cathode wiring layer through a first via, arranged at a position interposing the first pad, and connected to a first cathode pad of a light-receiving element, and a third pad connected to the second cathode pad of the light-receiving element. The light-receiving element is connected to an anode pad mounted on the transimpedance amplifier and connected through an anode electrode and an anode wiring pattern provided on a surface facing the transimpedance amplifier and a first cathode pad and a second cathode pad connected through a cathode electrode and a cathode wiring pattern and arranged at positions interposing the anode pad.

Optical receiver

An optical module includes a circuit board having a through hole for the lead terminal, a signal wiring connected to the lead terminal, a ground layer providing a reference potential, an opening through which the ground layer is exposed, and a bonding material connecting the ground layer to the metallic base. The lead terminal extends in a first direction, and the circuit board and the signal wiring extend in a second direction. When the circuit board is viewed from the first direction, the opening overlaps with the signal wiring, or when the opening does not overlap with the signal wiring, a first distance between the signal wiring and a closest point of the opening to the signal wiring is smaller than a second distance between the closest point and an edge of the circuit board.
