Light-emitting diode

摘要

A light-emitting diode with which the LED chip will not be destroyed comprises an LED chip 40 mounted on plate-shaped wiring means 60 inside a light-emitting diode. Wiring means 60 comprises conductive paths 61 and 62 that electrically lead to a pair of opposing surfaces. The top surface is used for mounting the LED chip. Part of the conductive paths 61, 62 are connected electrically to LED chip 40, extending from the position where the LED is mounted to leads 21 and 22, to which they are connected by soldering. LED chip 40 is supported by being held inside concave part 23 in one lead 21 at this time.
