Light emitting diode package and method for fabricating same

摘要

An LED package comprising a submount (32) having a top and bottom surface with a plurality of top electrically and thermally conductive elements on its top surface. An LED (34) is included on one of the top elements such that an electrical signal applied to the top elements causes the LED to emit light. The electrically conductive elements also spread heat from the LED across the majority of the submount top surface. A bottom thermally conductive element (66) is included on the bottom surface of said submount and spreads heat from the submount, and a lens (70) is formed directly over the LED. A method for fabricating LED packages comprising providing a submount panel sized to be separated into a plurality of LED package submounts. Top conductive elements are formed on one surface of the submount panel for a plurality of LED packages, and LEDs are attached to the top elements. Lenses are molded over the LEDs and the substrate panel is singulated to separate it into a plurality of LED packages.
