Compact, thermally-enhanced substrate for lighting applications

摘要

A solid state light source module having a compact, thermally enhanced substrate with one or more recessed pockets, is provided. The module includes a solid state light source and an electrical connection for the solid state light source, such that it is able to receive power so as to generate light. The solid state light source is connected to a substrate having an upper surface and a lower surface. The substrate includes a recessed pocket in the upper surface, defined by a wall and a floor that are at least large enough to accommodate the solid state light source; thus, the solid state light source sits within the recessed pocket. This allows the module to be substantially flat, even with an attached optical system, even utilizing remote phosphor technology, and increases the amount of heat dissipated by a thermal management system that is part of, or connected to, the module.

主权项

1. A solid state light source module, comprising:
a solid state light source; a substrate having an upper surface and a lower surface, wherein the solid state light source is connected to the substrate, wherein the substrate includes a recessed pocket in the upper surface, wherein the solid state light source is located in the recessed pocket; and an electrical connection from the solid state light source, such that the solid state light source is able to receive power so as to generate light.
