Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for forming a package structure for a light emitting diode (LED) and the LED package structure thereof. By employing the same sawing process to cut through the trenches of the leadframe, the package units are singulated and different lead portions are simultaneously separated from each other in each package unit. Therefore, the overflow issues of the encapsulant can be avoided without using extra taping process.
Claims9
A light emitting diode package structure, comprising:
- a leadframe having a first lead portion and a second lead portion separated by a slit;
- at least a light emitting diode (LED) chip disposed on a top surface of the leadframe and on the second lead portion of the leadframe, wherein the LED chip is electrically connected to the leadframe;
- a phosphor layer covering the LED chip;
- and
- an encapsulant covering the LED chip, the phosphor layer and the leadframe, the transparent encapsulant comprises a lens portion, a brim portion surrounding and extending sidewards and outwards from the lens portion and a flange protruding downwardly from the brim portion, wherein the flange of the encapsulant is tightly fitted to a side recess of the leadframe, so that side surfaces of the brim portion and the flange of the encapsulant are coplanar with that of the leadframe and a portion of the encapsulant is exposed by the slit.
