Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of LEDs, in particular to a flip-chip SMD packaging method. Background Art

[0002] SMD LEDs (Surface-Modulated Device LEDs) are primarily used in lighting systems, decoration, electronic device indicators, backlighting, displays, and appliances. Flip-chip LEDs are a mature product, such as the chip LED package structure described in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN206516658U. This structure comprises an LED holder and a flip-chip LED chip. The LED holder includes a holder cup and first and second electrodes at the bottom of the holder cup. The first and second electrodes serve as the positive and negative electrodes of the LED holder, respectively. The surfaces of the first and second electrodes are coated with solder paste. The positive and negative electrodes of the flip-chip LED chip are fixed to two electrodes located on the upper surface of the solder paste, corresponding to the positions of the first and second electrodes. A fluorescent colloid is encapsulated within the holder cup and covers the flip-chip LED chip. The upper end of the fluorescent colloid is cured in a mold to form a transparent colloid with a specific shape. During packaging, the flip-chip is soldered with solder paste. Since the molten solder paste flows, the chip can be easily deflected by the flowing solder paste, resulting in chip shift, which not only affects the appearance but can also lead to leakage in severe cases. In addition, different phosphors in the fluorescent glue are mixed together and excited. The long-wave phosphors (such as red phosphors) absorb the short-wave blue light of the LED chip, and the red-pink phosphors not only absorb blue light, but also absorb the light emitted by short-wave phosphors (such as yellow-green phosphors). When different phosphors are mixed together, the phosphors will absorb each other, resulting in the loss of light energy. Summary of the Invention
