Abstract
A package allowing both electrical and optical coupling between one or more integrated circuits and a printed circuit board (PCB) has optical waveguide structures in addition to electrical connections. An optically active device may be flip-bonded directly to an integrated circuit using solder bump technology. The integrated circuit then flip-bonded or wire-bonded to a BGA package. The package has alignment rails or balls and V-grooves to anchor the alignment rails/balls to align the BGA package to the PCB. The BGA package is bonded to the PCB using solder reflow technology.
