LED lamp

An LED lamp that is configured to be fitted to a fluorescent lighting fixture having inlet ports, the LED lamp comprising:

• a substrate including first and second ends spaced from each other in a longitudinal direction of the substrate;
• a plurality of LEDs mounted on a mount surface of the substrate;
• a light-transmitting cover covering the plurality of LEDs;
• and
• a pair of bases attached to the first and second ends of the substrate, respectively,
• wherein each of the plurality of LEDs comprises:
• a first lead;
• a second lead spaced apart from the first lead in a first direction;
• a LED chip electrically connected to the first lead and the second lead;
• a case covering the first lead and the second lead in a manner such that the first lead and the second lead include bottom surfaces, respectively, that are flush with each other and are exposed from and in direct contact with lowest surface of the case, the lowest surface being flush with the bottom surfaces of the first lead and the second lead, the case surrounding the LED chip when viewed in a second direction perpendicular to a surface of the first lead;
• and
• a transparent sealing resin filled in a space defined by the case such that the LED chip is covered by the sealing resin,
• wherein the bottom surface of the first lead has a first area when viewed in the second direction,
• wherein the first area has a first length in the first direction and a first width in a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions, the first width being constant in the first direction,
• wherein the first length of the first area is larger than the first width of the first area,
• wherein the bottom surface of the second lead has a second width in the third direction,
• wherein a maximum width of the first width is equal to the second width, and
• wherein each of the bases includes a pair of terminals each configured to be fitted into one of the inlet ports of the fluorescent lighting fixture.
