Abstract
A signal coupling device includes a light-emitting element configured to emit light, a first element to drive the light-emitting element to output an optical signal, and a second element to receive the optical signal from the light-emitting element and to convert the optical signal into an electrical signal. A first silicone gel covers the first semiconductor element. A second silicone gel covers the second semiconductor element. A third silicone gel covers the light-emitting element. The light-emitting element, the first semiconductor element, and the second semiconductor element are encapsulated in resin material, which contacts the first, second, and third silicone gels. The first silicone gel, the second silicone gel, the third silicone gel, and the first resin material, and the resin material are transparent to light emitted by the light-emitting element. The first, second, and third silicone gels are spaced apart from each other.
