Embodiment
But the point of optical pointing module sensing one determinand of the present invention touches movement, and movable signal corresponding to electronic installation that uses this optical pointing module is provided.Fig. 1 is the first embodiment of optical pointing module of the present invention.This optical pointing module 50 mainly comprises one and uses plane 51, a circuit board 52, a sensing cell 54, and a light source cell 40.
This use plane 51 provides this determinand 60 surperficial thereon slip of putting tactile or any direction.In the present embodiment, this determinand 60 is not then limit with this during actual enforcement take a finger as example.This circuit board 52 be positioned at these 51 belows, use plane and with this use plane 51 be separated by a preset distance and both almost parallels.This light source cell 40 is arranged on the upper surface of this circuit board 52, and in order to use plane 51 emissions one with respect to this light beam that uses the upper surface on plane 51 to tilt towards this.
As shown in Figure 2, this light source cell 40 comprises a luminescence chip 44 and a light transmission package 42.This luminescence chip 44 has a upper surface 441 and a lower surface 442 of almost parallel.Specifically, this light-emitting component 44 can be vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) (Vertical-Cavity Surface Emitting Laser, VCSEL) chip.These light transmission package 42 entities are contacted with this luminescence chip 44, and the upper surface 441 that covers this luminescence chip 44 with and all sides.This light transmission package 42 has the bottom surface 424 of the lower surface 442 of this luminescence chip 44 of an almost parallel.In the present embodiment, this light transmission package 42 is to encapsulate airtightly this luminescence chip 44, uses the injury-free or oxidation of protection luminescence chip 44 and affects the characteristics of luminescence.
What need pay special attention to is that this light transmission package 42 has an inclined-plane 422 of upper surface 441 tops that are positioned at this luminescence chip 44, and this inclined-plane 422 is to favour this upper surface 441.Specifically, the incidence angle θ 1 of these inclined-plane 422 relative these upper surfaces 441 is between 25 degree between 5 degree.After light that this luminescence chip 44 upwards sends enters this light transmission package 42, can produce refraction when running into this inclined-plane 422.Through the refraction on this inclined-plane 422, the direct of travel I2 of light can press from both sides a refraction angle θ 2 with the normal direction I1 of the upper surface 441 of this luminescence chip 44.Specifically, as shown in Figure 3, after the light of this luminescence chip 44 is upwards launched by its upper surface 441, can be incident in this inclined-plane 422 with the angle that is same as this incidence angle θ 1, and because the difference of inclined-plane both sides refractive index about in the of 422, this light can outwards be penetrated with this refraction angle θ 2 by this inclined-plane 422 according to refraction law.This refraction angle θ 2 is between 40 degree between 7 degree.
In addition, in another embodiment of the present invention, in the situation that need not to consider this luminescence chip 44 of level Hermetic Package, this light transmission package 42 can only keep this luminescence chip 44 upper surface 441 directly over projection section, and mat inclined-plane 422 reaches above-mentioned reflective functions.
As shown in Figure 1, this sensing cell 54 is arranged on this circuit board 52 and towards the image of this use plane this determinand 60 of 51 sensings.This sensing cell 54 can be CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) (CMOS) Image Sensor, but not as limit.This sensing element 54 is in order to receiving the reflection ray of determinand 60 on the upper surface on this use plane 51, and this light is converted to corresponding electric signal.
In addition, the optical pointing module of the present embodiment also comprises a light shield 56 that is located on this sensing cell 54.This light shield 56 has the open-work 562 that a light beam that reflects for this plane 51 passes through.By at this sensing cell 54 this light shield 56 being set, can prevent that other extraneous light from being received by this sensing cell 54.
As shown in Figure 4, the second embodiment of optical pointing module of the present invention, roughly identical with the first embodiment, difference is this light source cell 70.As shown in Figure 5, this light source cell 70 also comprises the substrate 76 that entity contacts the lower surface 742 of this luminescence chip 74.This substrate 76 has the insulation course 762 that one first electrode layer 761, that is connected with this luminescence chip 74 is positioned at these the first electrode layer 761 belows, and a second electrode lay 763 that is positioned at these insulation course 762 belows and is electrically connected with this first electrode layer 761.This first electrode layer 761 is to pass or walk around this insulation course 762 with wire to be electrically connected with this second electrode lay 763, uses and utilizes the second electrode lay 763 to be electrically connected on the circuit board of electronic installation in the surface mount mode.And this substrate 76 is to cooperate to encapsulate airtightly this luminescence chip 74 with this light transmission package 72, the injury-free or oxidation with protection luminescence chip 74 and affect the characteristics of luminescence.
In sum, above-described embodiment is by directly forming this inclined-plane 422,722 in order to refracted ray on this light transmission package 42,72, light transmission package 42,72 by this inclined-plane 422,722 belows provides different optical path differences, need not use in addition the water chestnut mirror, just can reach the effect of refracted ray.So, not only can make level Hermetic Package with protection luminescence chip 44,74 to luminescence chip 44,74, the function of light refraction also can be provided simultaneously.
Certainly; the present invention also can have other various embodiments; in the situation that do not deviate from spirit of the present invention and essence thereof; those of ordinary skill in the art work as can make according to the present invention various corresponding changes and distortion, but these corresponding changes and distortion all should belong to the protection domain of the appended claim of the present invention.
