Abstract
An LED board structure includes a light-pervious substrate having a plurality of light-pervious areas formed thereon, a plurality of patterned conductive traces arranged on the light-pervious substrate at locations other than the light-pervious areas, and a plurality of LEDs correspondingly arranged on the light-pervious areas and respectively having two electrode terminals electrically connected to the patterned conductive traces. With these arrangements, light emitted from the LEDs not only projects forward, but also backwardly passes through the light-pervious areas, so that both sides of the LED board structure are illuminated by the LEDs. A method of manufacturing an LED board structure is also disclosed.
Claims28
An LED board structure, comprising:
- a light-pervious substrate having at least one light-pervious area formed thereon;
- at least one patterned conductive trace being arranged on the light-pervious substrate at a location other than the at least one light-pervious area;
- and
- at least one LED being correspondingly arranged on the at least one light-pervious area;
- and each LED having two electrode terminals connected to the at least one patterned conductive trace;
- whereby light emitted from the at least one LED not only projects forward, but also backwardly passes through the light-pervious area, so that both sides of the LED board structure are illuminated by the at least one LED.
A method of manufacturing LED board structure, comprising the following steps:
- preparing a light-pervious substrate, on which at least one light-pervious area is formed;
- arranging at least one patterned conductive trace on the light-pervious substrate at a location other than the at least one light-pervious area;
- arranging a plurality of LEDs on the light-pervious substrate at locations corresponding to the at least light-pervious area;
- and
- electrically connecting two electrode terminals of each of the LEDs to the at least one patterned conductive trace, so that the LEDs are connected in series or in parallel to one another.
