Multi-layer printed circuit board and liquid crystal display device having the same
View Patent ↗A PCB and an LCD device with the same are disclosed. The PCB and the LCD device force an LED to directly contact either a heat radiation member or a metal plate. As such, heat generated in the LED is directly transferred to the heat radiation member or the metal plate without passing through wiring and prepreg layers. Therefore, the heat is effectively discharged to the exterior through a bottom cover. In other words, heat generated in the LED can be effectively discharged because of passing through the shortened heat radiation path.
1. A printed circuit board comprising:
a metal plate;
a wiring layer disposed on the metal plate and configured to include an electrode pattern;
a prepreg layer interposed between the metal plate and layer and configured to insulate the metal plate and the wiring layer;
an oxidation prevention layer formed on the wiring layer; and
a heat radiation member formed from a heat radiation material which is filled in a hole passing through the oxidation prevention layer, the wiring layer, and the prepreg layer, and formed on the metal plate,
wherein the heat radiation member directly transfers heat to the metal plate.
2. The printed circuit board claimed as claim 1 , wherein the heat radiation material includes lead (Pb).
3. A liquid crystal display device comprising:
a metal plate;
a wiring layer disposed on the metal plate and configured to include an electrode pattern;
a prepreg layer interposed between the metal plate and the wiring layer and configured to insulate the metal plate and the wiring layer;
an oxidation prevention layer formed on the wiring layer;
a heat radiation member formed directly on and above the metal plate from a heat radiation material which is filled in a hole passing through the oxidation prevention layer, the wiring layer, and the prepreg layer;
an LED disposed opposite to the heat radiation member; and
a bottom cover disposed under the metal plate and having a heat radiation pad,
wherein the metal plate is directly in contact with the heat radiation pad of the bottom cover such that heat generated from the LED is discharged from the heat radiation member directly to the metal plate and then to the bottom cover through the heat radiation pad.
4. The liquid crystal display device claimed as claim 3 , wherein the LED is disposed to contact the heat radiation member.
5. The liquid crystal display device claimed as claim 3 , wherein the prepreg layer is formed from one material selected from a group of epoxy-based materials and ceramic filter materials.
6. A liquid crystal display device comprising:
a metal plate configured to include a protrusion portion;
a solder cream formed on the protrusion portion;
a wiring layer formed on the metal plate and configured to include an electrode pattern;
a prepreg layer interposed between the metal plate and the wiring layer and configured to insulate the metal plate and the wiring layer;
an oxidation prevention layer formed on the wiring layer;
an LED disposed opposite to the protrusion portion; and
a bottom cover disposed under the metal plate and having a heat radiation pad,
wherein the prepreg layer, wiring layer and oxidation prevention layer are formed in contact with all the side surface of the protrusion portion, and
wherein the metal plate is directly in contact with the heat radiation pad of the bottom cover such that heat generated from the LED is discharged from the solder cream to the bottom cover through the metal plate having the protrusion portion and the heat radiation pad.
7. The liquid crystal display device claimed as claim 6 , wherein the prepreg layer is formed from one material selected from a group of epoxy-based materials and ceramic filter materials.
8. A liquid crystal display device comprising:
a metal plate;
a wiring layer disposed on the metal plate and configured to include an electrode pattern;
a prepreg layer interposed between the metal plate and the wiring layer and configured to insulate the metal plate and the wiring layer;
an oxidation prevention layer formed on the wiring layer; and
a heat radiation member formed from a heat radiation material which is filled in a hole passing through the oxidation prevention layer, the wiring layer, the prepreg layer, and formed on the metal plate,
wherein the heat radiation member directly transfers heat to the metal plate,
an LED disposed opposite to the heat radiation member; and
a bottom cover disposed under the metal plate.
