Abstract

Connecting element for mounting on a printed circuit board, which connecting element has at least two connecting lines which cross one another and are not electrically connected between respectively associated contacts.

Claims (11)

1. An LED luminous module comprising at least one printed circuit board with at least one connecting element and at least three non-collinear LEDs fitted thereon, wherein the connecting element has at least two connecting lines which cross one another and are not electrically connected between respectively associated contacts, and wherein the connecting element is connected to the at least three non-collinear LEDs and is arranged in the region of the optical axis of the at least three non-collinear LEDs.

2. The LED luminous module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting element is constructed in multilayer fashion.

3. The LED luminous module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting element is designed to be connected to the printed circuit board by means of wire bonding.

4. The LED luminous module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting element is designed to be connected to the printed circuit board by means of flip-chip bonding.

5. The LED luminous module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting element is designed to be connected to the printed circuit board partly by means of flip-chip bonding and partly by means of wire bonding.

6. The LED luminous module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one connecting line is embodied as an electrical branching mechanism.

7. The LED luminous module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the printed circuit board is embodied in monolayer fashion.

8. The LED luminous module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting element is arranged in the center of the LEDs.

9. The LED luminous module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the LEDs are of identical type.

10. The LED luminous module as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the LEDs are of identical color.

11. The LED luminous module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting element additionally comprises an optical sensor on the optical axis for the color control of the LEDs.
