SINGLE CHIP LED AS COMPACT COLOR VARIABLE LIGHT SOURCE

摘要

The present invention relates to a color variable light-emitting device comprising an array of a plurality of LEDs formed on one highly resistive substrate, which array comprises a first, a second and a third set of at least one LED arranged to provide light of a first, a second and a third color, respectively. At least one of the sets is independently addressable. Further, each light-emitting diode in the array has a separate connection to a circuitry, and at least one of the sets comprises at least two LEDs, interconnected in series via the circuitry. Thus, all connections between separate LEDs, for example in the same set, can be done via the circuitry. This also allows for a very dense packing of the LEDs in the array, as no interconnects between different LEDs of the array need to be arranged in the array.
