Optical modules belong to integrated circuits
A photonic integrated circuit (PIC) or integrated optical circuit is a microchip containing two or more photonic components that form a functioning circuit. Although optical signals do not propagate faster than electrical signals in typical interconnect media, photonics. An optical module usually consists of an optical transmitting device (TOSA, including a laser), an optical receiving device (ROSA, including a photodetector), functional circuits,main control circuit board (PCBA), housing and optical (electrical) interface and other components. Whether you are creating a 100-Gbps or 400-Gbps, small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module, SFP+ transceiver, XFP module, CFP, X2/XENPAK module.
