Composite board, light-emitting device, and manufacturing method of light-emitting device

1. A composite board comprising:

a board; and

a covering member, wherein

the board includes:

a base made of ceramics;

first wiring provided on an upper surface of the base; and

second wiring provided on a lower surface of the base and electrically connected to the first wiring,

the covering member covers the base such that the first wiring and the second wiring are exposed, and at least one lateral surface of the base is covered, and

the covering member covers an entirety or a part of the upper surface of the base.

2. The composite board according to claim 1 , wherein the covering member covers an entirety of the upper surface of the base.

3. The composite board according to claim 1 , wherein the covering member includes a frame integrally formed with the covering member.

4. The composite board according to claim 3 , wherein the frame is positioned on an inner side of an outer edge of the base.

5. The composite board according to claim 1 , further comprising a frame formed on the covering member and located above the upper surface of the base.

6. The composite board according to claim 5 , wherein the frame is positioned on an inner side of an outer edge of the base.

7. A light-emitting device comprising:

the composite board according to claim 1 ; and

at least one light-emitting element mounted on the first wiring.

8. The light-emitting device according to claim 7 , further comprising an encapsulant that encapsulates the light-emitting element.

9. A manufacturing method of a light-emitting device, comprising:

preparing a board assembly, which includes a base made of ceramics, and first wiring and second wiring respectively provided on an upper surface and a lower surface of the base;

singulating the board assembly by cutting the base to obtain a plurality of boards;

placing the plurality of boards at predetermined intervals on a sheet and adhering the plurality of boards to the sheet using an adhesive material;

providing a covering member on the sheet to integrate the plurality of boards such that the first wiring is exposed on an upper surface side of each of the plurality of boards and at least one of lateral surfaces included in each of the plurality of boards is covered;

removing the sheet from the integrated boards to expose the second wiring on a lower surface side of each of the plurality of boards and obtain a composite board assembly;

mounting a plurality of light-emitting elements on the first wiring provided on an upper surface side of the composite board assembly; and

singulating the composite board assembly by cutting the covering member to obtain a plurality of light-emitting devices.

10. The manufacturing method of a light-emitting device according to claim 9 , wherein the providing the covering member comprises forming a frame integrally with the covering member.

11. The manufacturing method of a light-emitting device according to claim 10 , wherein the frame is provided on an inner side of an outer edge of the base.

12. The manufacturing method of a light-emitting device according to claim 9 , further comprising, after the providing the covering member and prior to the removing the sheet, providing a frame formed on the covering member and located above the upper surface of the base.

13. The manufacturing method of a light-emitting device according to claim 12 , wherein the frame is provided on an inner side of an outer edge of the base.

14. The manufacturing method of a light-emitting device according to claim 9 , further comprising encapsulating each light-emitting element on the composite board assembly by an encapsulant prior to the singulating the composite board assembly.
