Abstract
A lighting unit includes a transparent carrier panel provided with electrically conductive structures, in particular a structured ITO layer on one side. Surface mount LEDs having terminals on both sides of a light emitting side are mounted on the carrier panel in such a way that the terminals are in contact with the conductive structures. The light emitting side faces the carrier panel.
Claims8
A lighting unit, comprising:
- a transparent carrier panel;
- electrically conductive structures provided on a first side of the carrier panel;
- surface mounted light emitting diodes (LEDs), each having a light emitting side and including terminals on two opposite ends of the light emitting diode, the LEDs being mounted on the carrier panel so that the terminals of the surface mounted LEDs are in contact with the conductive structures, the light emitting side of each of the LEDs facing the carrier panel.
