Abstract
Various embodiments include an electro-optical circuit with an optical transmission path comprising: an electro-optical assembly having an optical transmitter element and/or an optical receiver element mounted on a mounting surface of a carrier component; a circuit carrier with a mounting side and an embedded optical waveguide exposed with an end face in a cutout in the mounting side; and an optical interface between the electro-optical assembly and the optical waveguide. The optical transmitter element and/or the optical receiver element is mounted on the carrier component with an alignment of its respective optical axis parallel to the mounting surface. The optical assembly is mounted on the circuit carrier with the mounting surface facing toward the mounting side. The optical transmitter element and/or the optical receiver element projects into the cutout and forms an optical axis with the exposed optical waveguide.
