Abstract

A surface mount light emitting diode package (surface mount LED package) includes a leadframe, a LED chip, a plurality of conductors and an encapsulant. The LED chip is disposed over the leadframe. The LED chip has an active surface facing the leadframe and a plurality of electrodes is disposed on the active surface. In addition, the conductors are disposed between the leadframe and the LED chip, the electrodes are electrically connected to the leadframe through the conductors and the encapsulant encapsulates the LED chip and a part of the leadframe. In this way, the surface mount LED package of the present invention has better luminescence efficiency.

Claims (19)

1 . A surface mount light emitting diode package (surface mount LED package), comprising:

a leadframe;

an LED chip, disposed over the leadframe, wherein the LED chip has an active surface facing the leadframe and a plurality of electrodes disposed on the active surface;

a plurality of conductors, disposed between the leadframe and the LED chip, wherein the electrodes are electrically connected to the leadframe through the conductors; and

an encapsulant, encapsulating the LED chip and a part of the leadframe.

2 . The surface mount LED package as recited in claim 1 , wherein the conductors comprise gold balls, conductive resin or solder.

3 . The surface mount LED package as recited in claim 1 , wherein the encapsulant is a transparent encapsulant.

4 . The surface mount LED package as recited in claim 1 , further comprising a fluorescence powder mixed in the encapsulant.

5 . A method for fabricating a surface mount LED package, comprising:

providing a leadframe;

providing an LED chip, having an active surface and a plurality of electrodes disposed on the active surface;

putting the LED chip over the leadframe and electrically connecting the LED chip to the leadframe through a plurality of conductors; and

forming an encapsulant to encapsulate the LED chip and a part of the leadframe.

6 . The method for fabricating a surface mount LED package as recited in claim 5 , wherein the conductors comprise gold ball, conductive resin or solder.

7 . The method for fabricating a surface mount LED package as recited in claim 5 , wherein the encapsulant is a transparent encapsulant.

8 . The method for fabricating a surface mount LED package as recited in claim 5 , wherein the encapsulant is mixed with fluorescence powder.

9 . The method for fabricating a surface mount LED package as recited in claim 5 , wherein the method for forming the encapsulant comprises dispensing process.

10 . The method for fabricating a surface mount LED package as recited in claim 5 , wherein the conductors are formed on the LED chip in advance to electrically connect the LED chip and the leadframe.

11 . The method for fabricating a surface mount LED package as recited in claim 5 , wherein the conductors are formed on the leadframe in advance to electrically connect the LED chip and the leadframe.
