THERMAL MANAGEMENT FOR LIGHT-EMITTING DIODES

摘要

Embodiments of the invention provide lighting systems that employ light-emitting diode (LED) chips as active lighting elements. Heat management components for the LED chips employed in the lighting sources are provided. In embodiments of the invention, LED chips are cooled by one or more heatspreaders and heat sinks attached to a substrate that houses the LED chip and/or the topside of the LED chip.
