Embodiment Construction

[0035] The present invention will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying. drawings, in which preferred embodiments of the invention are shown.

[0036]FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view illustrating an LED package 100 according to an embodiment of the invention.

[0037] Referring to FIG. 6, the side view LED package 100 of the invention is applied to the backlight unit 1 as shown in FIG. 1. The LED package 100 includes an LED chip 102, first and second lead frames 104 for supplying power to the LED chip 102 seated thereon, a package body 106 injection-molded to hold the first and second lead frames 104 and an encapsulant 108 of a transparent resin filled in a cavity C of the package body 106 to encapsulate the LED chip 102.

[0038] The LED package 100 according to this embodiment of the invention has an improvement in the cavity C in order to improve light quantity and beam angle. The height of a sidewall of the LED package 100, that is, the depth d of ...

Abstract

A side view LED package for a backlight unit includes a package body having a cavity with an inclined inner sidewall, first and second lead frames arranged in the package body, the cavity of the package body exposing a portion of at least one of the first and second lead frames placed in a bottom of the cavity to outside, a light emitting diode chip mounted on the bottom of the cavity to be electrically connected to the first and second lead frames, and a transparent encapsulant arranged in the cavity surrounding the light emitting diode chip. The cavity has a depth larger than a mounting height of the light emitting diode chip and not exceeding six times of the mounting height. The height of the sidewall is shortened to improve beam angle characteristics of emission light, increase light quantity, and prevent a molding defect of the sidewall.

Description

CLAIM OF PRIORITY [0001] This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 2005-113834 filed on Nov. 25, 2005, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] The present invention relates to a high power Light Emitting Diode (LED) package, particularly, in which the height of a sidewall is shortened to improve beam angle characteristics of emission light, increase light quantity, and prevent a molding defect of the sidewall. [0004] 2. Description of the Related Art [0005] A Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) does not have a light source of its own, and thus requires an external illumination, which is generally referred to as a backlight unit. The backlight unit illuminates the LCD from the back and uses a Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp (CCFL) or an LED as a light source. [0006]FIGS. 1 and 2 show a general backlight unit 1 in use for the LCD. Refer...
