Abstract
A light emission package includes at least one solid state emitter, a leadframe, and a body structure encasing a portion of the leadframe. At least one aperture is defined in an electrical lead to define multiple electrical lead segments, with at least a portion of the aperture disposed outside an exterior side wall of the package. A recess may be defined in the exterior side wall to receive a bent portion of an electrical lead. A body structure cavity may be bounded by a floor, and side wall portions and end wall portions that are separated by transition wall portions including a curved or segmented upper edge, with different wall portions being disposed at different angles of inclination.
Claims47
A light emission package adapted for use with at least one solid state emitter, the package comprising:
- a leadframe defining at least one electrical lead;
- and
- a body structure encasing at least a portion of the leadframe, the body structure defining at least one exterior side wall;
- wherein a first electrical lead of the at least one electrical lead includes a plurality of first electrical lead segments extending through the at least one exterior side wall, wherein each first electrical lead segment is separated from each other first electrical lead segment along the at least one exterior side wall by at least one first aperture, and at least a portion of the at least one first aperture is disposed outside the at least one exterior wall.
