Optical Backplane For Circuit Boards
US Patent:
4892376, Jan 9, 1990
Filed:
Jan 26, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/301852
Inventors:
William A. Whitehouse - Poulsbo WA
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Seattle WA
International Classification:

US Classification:
350 9620
Abstract:
An optical backplane comprises a light source that transmits a light beam through apertures of aligned circuit cards. An optical modulator on each circuit card writes information onto the light beam. An optical demodulator on each circuit card reads information off of the light beam. The optical backplane interconnects integrated circuits of different circuit cards and minimizes misalignment problems and the likelihood of faulty connections between such circuits.
