Abstract
An optical module includes a circuit board, an optical element on the circuit board, a semiconductor circuit element thereon and electrically coupled with the optical element, an optical connection member formed on a back surface of the circuit board and including an optical fiber receiving groove, and a pressing plate disposed on a side opposite to the circuit board of the optical connection member so as to fix the optical fiber. The semiconductor circuit element is mounted nearer a tip side of the circuit board in relation to the optical element such that the circuit board, the optical connection member and a tip part of the optical fiber are sandwiched between the semiconductor circuit element and the pressing plate. The circuit board includes a plurality of electrodes to be electrically coupled with an equipment side circuit board formed on a tip part of a back surface of the circuit board.
