Abstract
An LED package with an extended top electrode and an extended bottom electrode is formed from a first metal and a second metal. An LED is on an inner end of the first metal. An outer end of the first metal has been bent upward twice 90 degrees to form a top flat as an extended top electrode of the package. An outer end of the second metal has been bent downward twice 90 degrees to form a bottom flat as an extended bottom electrode of the package. The LED and a bonding wire may be encapsulated with glue.
Claims20
A manufacturing process for making an LED package, the manufacturing process comprising:
- mounting an LED on a beam of an I metal such that the LED is electrically coupled to the beam, wherein the I metal includes at least one c-shaped metal and at least one inverse c-shaped metal;
- electrically coupling the LED to a second metal by a metal wire, wherein the second metal has an inverse c shape;
- and
- enclosing the LED and the metal wire in a molding.
A manufacturing process for making an LED package, the manufacturing process comprising:
- mounting an LED on a vertical beam such that the LED is electrically coupled to the beam, wherein the vertical beam has a first pair of horizontal legs extending from a first side of the vertical beam and a second pair of horizontal legs extending from a second side of the vertical beam;
- bending the first and second pairs of legs to form four top electrodes of the LED package;
- bending a portion of the second metal to form a bottom electrode of the LED package;
- electrically coupling the LED to the second metal by a metal wire;
- and
- enclosing the LED and the metal wire in a molding.
