PURPOSE: A lighting apparatus is provided to reduce manufacturing costs of the lighting apparatus integrally forming a terminal portion, which is not bendable, on a metal base FPC(Flexible Printed Circuit). CONSTITUTION: A lighting apparatus(1) is composed of a metal base FPC(5), a light emitting device(LED)(6), and a lighting control circuit(7). The metal base FPC includes a pair of terminal portions(2,3). The terminal portions are projected along a surface(5a) of the metal base FPC. The metal base FPC is composed of a FPC(8) and a metal material base(12). The FPC is formed by integrating copper foil patterns(9) having a circuit wire-shape between a heat conductive insulating film on a rear side and a highly reflective insulating film on a front surface. Tip-end portions(9b) of the copper foil patterns include a wide copper foil terminal(9a). The tip-end portions of the copper foil terminal are arranged to be fit with tip-end portions(2b,3b) of the terminal portion. A light emitting device and a lighting control circuit are mounted on the metal base FPC. |
