Abstract
An electro-optic device assembly and handling technique is disclosed. The assembly comprises an elongate combination heat sink and retention clip, a heat dispersive substrate affixed to one elongate face of the clip and having lead means secured to an outward face thereof, and an electrooptic chip mounted upon the substrate making electrical contact with the leads. A length of waveguide is bonded to an active portion of the chip, and a ferrule member is provided having a profiled passageway for receiving the above assembly therein. Subsequently, the ferrule is inserted into a header housing, and malleable ends of the heat sink clip are inwardly clasped upon the profile of the header housing to secure the heat sink clip, and assembly elements thereupon, to the connector housing.
