Abstract:Due to the restrictions of technology and equipment,it is difficult to obtain the temperature inside with the conventional temperature measurement methods for some micro components. A thermal modeling method for transmitter optical sub - assembly ( TOSA) module in small form - factor pluggable ( SFP) is presented. Through the temperature measurement outside TOSA and the thermal parameters,the junction temperature of internal chip is estimated roughly with Fourier law. This method could also be used to thermal analysis for other kinds of micro devices.
