In the evolution of optical modules, PCBs predominantly adopt HDI structures—whether mechanical blind-via HDI, laser blind-via HDI, or rigid-flex + HDI. 1 mm in thickness, with most designs. Optical modules are critical components in modern communication systems, acting as the bridge between electrical and optical signals. In simple terms, they convert electrical signals from devices like routers, switches, and servers into light signals that travel through fiber optic cables. Optical module PCB design demands exceptional accuracy to ensure stable and. Optical PCBs [^1] integrate light-based data transmission with electrical circuits using polymer waveguides and photonic chips, enabling 400Gbps+ speeds for 5G networks and AI servers while reducing power consumption by 40% compared to conventional boards.
