Abstract
In a package mounting an optical semiconductor module, an optical semiconductor module is supported by a supporter fixed on a metallic base such that the optical semiconductor module is inclined relative to the circuit board. Further, a lead pin of the optical semiconductor module is set as high as a signal input/output line of a high frequency circuit board. The lead pin is fixed at the shortest distance to the signal input/output line with solder. Thus, the performance of the optical semiconductor module is not deteriorated, and the other components on the circuit board are not affected. A circuit board may be arranged below the optical semiconductor module.
