LED MODULE

摘要

A light emitting diode (LED) module includes a base that is conductive and is selectively covered with an insulative layer. The base can include a connecting flange and a light emitting region. Traces are provided on the insulative coating and can be used to connect LEDs positioned on the light emitting region to pads on the connecting flange. The connecting flange can be offset in angle and/or position from the base and can be configured to provide a contact shape suitable to mate with a connector in a polarized manner. The base can be shaped so as to provide the desired functionality.

1. A light emitting diode (LED) module, comprising:
a base, the base being thermally and electrically conductive and having a light emitting region and a connecting flange; an insulative layer selectively provided on the base, the insulative layer configured to be positioned on the connecting flange; a first trace and a second trace provided on the insulative layer, the first and second traces extending from pads on the connecting flange to a corresponding connecting region adjacent the light emitting region; and LED chips mounted in the light emitting region in a pattern, the set of LED chips being electrically connected to the first and second traces such that the first and second traces provide an anode and a cathode for the LED chips.
