Butterfly & cavity packages

Hermetic packages keep moisture and contaminants away from laser chips, photodiodes, and hybrid circuits. Butterfly shells, BOX cavities, and HTCC housings trade footprint and fiber routing for cavity volume and pin count — the right choice depends on whether you are building a transceiver, a lidar emitter, or a multi-die hybrid.

Pair with die-level thermal — laser submount catalog, datacom submounts, or order SiC/ALN samples.

How to choose

Butterfly packages suit fiber-pigtailed TOSA/ROSA modules. BOX cavities fit bar stacks and rectangular optics. HTCC and hybrid IC shells maximize lead count for RF photonics. Specify leak rate, operating temperature, and whether you need a TEC pocket before narrowing the list.
