Abstract
A photonic integrated circuit (PIC) fan-out package and related methods of forming same are disclosed. The PIC fan-out package includes: an overmold body; a PIC die in the overmold body, the PIC die including electro-optic circuitry; a plurality of optical fiber stubs operatively coupled to the electro-optic circuitry; an edge fiber coupling interface in a lateral side of the overmold body for coupling the plurality of optical fiber stubs to external optical fibers using a connector; an ancillary device in the overmold body; a redistribution wiring layer (RDL) interposer adjacent the overmold body and electrically connected to the PIC die and the ancillary device; and a ball grid array (BGA) electrically coupled to the PIC die and the ancillary device by the RDL interposer, the BGA configured to electrically couple the PIC die and the ancillary device to a printed circuit board (PCB).
