Abstract
A light emitting chip package includes a planar substrate, an LED die mounted on the substrate, and one or more relatively wide and thick metal leads to serve as a low thermal resistance path. The substrate comprises a chip mounting area and a wire bond area on a dielectric body. The LED die is seated on the chip mounting area and electrically connected to the wire bonding area. The metal leads are attached to the substrate and form terminals for external connection. At least one metal lead is connected to the chip mounting area to serve as a low thermal resistance path between the chip mounting area and an external heat sink.
