Patent attributes
An optical transmitting and/or receiving device has a semiconductor component with a first contact for connecting to a reference voltage and a second contact for obtaining or supplying a high-frequency electrical signal. There is also an electrically conducting carrier substrate with a first surface and a second surface. The semiconductor component is configured on the first surface of the carrier substrate. The second surface of the carrier substrate has a metallization that can be connected to a reference voltage applied by an electrical path through the carrier substrate to a first contacting region of the first surface of the carrier substrate. The first contact of the semiconductor component is electrically connected to the first contacting region.
