Abstract
An optical communication apparatus includes a PCB, a photoelectric unit for emitting or receiving light carrying optical signals, a calculation and control unit, and a light waveguide for transmitting optical signals. The calculation and control unit controls the photoelectric unit, processes electrical signals, calculates based on the electrical signals, and controls the photoelectric unit to emit or receive light. The light waveguide is positioned on a surface of the PCB. The calculation and control unit includes a lapping plate lapping on the surface of the PCB. The lapping plate defines an opening exposing a portion of the light waveguide. The photoelectrical unit is positioned on the lapping plate covering the opening and is optically aligned with the light waveguide through the opening.
