The light-emitting module 100 is disposed closer to the third substrate side surface 23C than the drive circuit 200. The light-emitting module 100 can also be said to be disposed adjacent to the third substrate side surface 23C in the Y direction in a planar view. The gate driver 230 is disposed closer to the first substrate side surface 23A and the fourth substrate side surface 23D than the drive circuit 200 in a planar view.

[0021] The current limiting resistor 300 is configured to limit the current flowing through the first power supply wiring 40 (described later).

The current limiting resistor 300 is disposed closer to the first substrate side surface 23A than the plurality of second mounting holes 25B in a planar view. That is, the current limiting resistor 300 is disposed between the light-emitting module 100 and the drive circuit 200 and the plurality of second mounting holes 25B in the X direction in a planar view. The current limiting resistor 300 is disposed closer to the fourth substrate side surface 23D than the light-emitting module 100 and the drive circuit 200 in a planar view.

[0022] The protection diode 310 and the auxiliary resistor 313 are configured to protect a light-emitting element 150 (described later) of the light-emitting module 100. The protection diode 310 and the auxiliary resistor 313 are arranged closer to the second substrate side surface 23B than the light-emitting module 100 and the drive circuit 200 in a planar view.

The number of input capacitors 320 can be changed as desired. In one example, there may be only one input capacitor 320.

[0024] The light emitting device 10 includes a first power connector 331, a second power connector 332, and a signal input connector 333. In Fig. 1, the first power connector 331, the second power connector 332, and the signal input connector 333 are each indicated by a two-dot chain line.

[0025] The first power connector 331 is configured to supply a current to the first power wiring 40 for charging a capacitor 220 (described later) of the drive circuit 200. The first power connector 331 is disposed closer to the fourth substrate side surface 23D than the heat sink mounting hole 25 in a plan view. The first power connector 331 is disposed adjacent to the second substrate side surface 23B in a plan view. The first power connector 331 includes a terminal that is electrically connected to an external DC power supply (not shown in FIG. 1 ).

[0026] The multilayer substrate 20 includes a first power supply through hole 26 to which the first power supply connector 331 is connected. The first power supply through hole 26 penetrates the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction. The first power supply through hole 26 is electrically connected to the surface conductive layer 30. Therefore, the first power supply through hole 26 is an example of a "first power supply terminal."

[0027] The first power supply through holes 26 include a first through hole 26A and a second through hole 26B. The first through hole 26A and the second through hole 26B are located at the same position in the X direction and spaced apart from each other in the Y direction. The first through hole 26A is a terminal electrically connected to the positive electrode of the DC power supply. The second through hole 26B is a terminal electrically connected to the negative electrode of the DC power supply. A first terminal and a second terminal of the first power supply connector 331 are inserted into both the first through hole 26A and the second through hole 26B. This electrically connects the first through hole 26A to the first terminal of the first power supply connector 331, and electrically connects the second through hole 26B to the second terminal of the first power supply connector 331.

[0028] The second power supply connector 332 is configured to supply operating current to the gate driver 230. The second power supply connector 332 includes a terminal electrically connected to an external control power supply (not shown in FIG. 1 ). The control power supply supplies operating current to the gate driver 230 through the second power supply connector 332.

The second power supply connector 332 is disposed adjacent to the first substrate side surface 23A in a plan view.

[0029] The multilayer substrate 20 includes second power supply through holes 27 to which the second power supply connector 332 is connected. The second power supply through holes 27 penetrate the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction. The second power supply through holes 27 include a first through hole 27A and a second through hole 27B. The first through hole 27A and the second through hole 27B are located at the same position in the X direction and spaced apart from each other in the Y direction. The first through hole 27A is a terminal electrically connected to the positive electrode of the control power supply. The second through hole 27B is a terminal electrically connected to the negative electrode of the control power supply. The first and second terminals of the second power supply connector 332 are inserted into both the first through hole 27A and the second through hole 27B. This electrically connects the first through hole 27A to the first terminal of the second power supply connector 332, and the second through hole 27B to the second terminal of the second power supply connector 332. Here, the second power supply through hole 27 is an example of a "second power supply terminal."

[0030] The signal input connector 333 is configured to supply a pulse signal from an external control device to the gate driver 230. The signal input connector 333 may be a high-frequency connector such as an SMB connector. The pulse signal is used to control a transistor 210 (described later) of the drive circuit 200. The signal input connector 333 includes a terminal electrically connected to the control device. The signal input connector 333 is disposed closer to the fourth substrate side surface 23D than the heat sink mounting hole 25 in a plan view. The signal input connector 333 is disposed closer to the fourth substrate side surface 23D than the first power connector 331 and the second power connector 332 in a plan view.

[0031] The multilayer substrate 20 includes a signal through hole 28 to which the signal input connector 333 is connected, and a plurality of (four in the first embodiment) connector mounting holes 29. Both the signal through hole 28 and each connector mounting hole 29 penetrate the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction. The signal through hole 28 is electrically connected to the control device. The plurality of connector mounting holes 29 are provided around the signal through hole 28 in a plan view. Mounting portions provided on the housing of the signal input connector 333 are inserted into the plurality of connector mounting holes 29, and terminals of the signal input connector 333 are inserted into the signal through hole 28. This electrically connects the signal through hole 28 and the terminal of the signal input connector 333. Here, the signal through hole 28 is an example of a "signal input terminal."

[0032] As shown in FIG. 2 , the multilayer substrate 20 may include four or more conductive layers. In the first embodiment, the multilayer substrate 20 includes six conductive layers. Specifically, the multilayer substrate 20 includes a front conductive layer 30, intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D, and a back conductive layer 70. The front conductive layer 30 is a conductive layer provided on the front surface 21 of the multilayer substrate 20. The back conductive layer 70 is a conductive layer provided on the back surface 22 of the multilayer substrate 20. The intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D are conductive layers provided within the multilayer substrate 20. The intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D are provided between the front conductive layer 30 and the back conductive layer 70 in the Z direction. The intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D are separated from both the front conductive layer 30 and the back conductive layer 70 in the Z direction. The intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D are separated from each other in the Z direction. Each of the surface conductive layer 30, the intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D, and the back conductive layer 70 may be composed of one or more materials selected from a group including, for example, Cu (copper), Al (aluminum), Ti (titanium), TiN (titanium nitride), Au (gold), Ag (silver), and W (tungsten). In one example, the surface conductive layer 30, the intermediate conductive layers 60A and 60D, and the back conductive layer 70 may be composed of a first conductive film composed of a material containing Cu, a second conductive film on the first conductive film, and a third conductive film on the second conductive film. The first conductive film may be, for example, copper foil, and both the second and third conductive films may be plated films. The second and third conductive films may be, for example, plated films containing Cu. The intermediate conductive layers 60B and 60C may be composed of a conductive film composed of a material containing Cu. The conductive film may be, for example, copper foil. Alternatively, the intermediate conductive layers 60B and 60C may be formed of a first conductive film made of a material containing Cu and a second conductive film on the first conductive film. In this case, the first conductive film may be made of, for example, copper foil, and the second conductive film may be, for example, a plated film.

[0033] The multilayer substrate 20 includes multiple substrate insulating layers 80. Each substrate insulating layer 80 is made of an insulating material. For example, glass epoxy resin may be used as the insulating material. The multiple substrate insulating layers 80 include a front-side substrate insulating layer 81 including the substrate front surface 21, a back-side substrate insulating layer 82 including the substrate back surface 22, and multiple intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A to 83C provided between the front-side substrate insulating layer 81 and the back-side substrate insulating layer 82 in the Z direction. The intermediate substrate insulating layer 83A is disposed closer to the front-side substrate insulating layer 81 in the Z direction than the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83B and 83C. The intermediate substrate insulating layer 83C is disposed closer to the back-side substrate insulating layer 82 in the Z direction than the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A and 83B. In the first embodiment, the thicknesses of both the front-side substrate insulating layer 81 and the back-side substrate insulating layer 82 are thinner than the thicknesses of the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A to 83C. In one example, the thicknesses of the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A to 83C may be equal to one another. In the first embodiment, the thickness of the front-side substrate insulating layer 81 and the thickness of the back-side substrate insulating layer 82 are equal to one another. In one example, the thickness of the front-side substrate insulating layer 81 may be 0.1 mm or less. In one example, the thickness of the back-side substrate insulating layer 82 may be 0.1 mm or less.

[0034] The front conductive layer 30 is provided on a front substrate insulating layer 81. The back conductive layer 70 is provided on a back substrate insulating layer 82. The front substrate insulating layer 81 constitutes the front substrate surface 21 of the multilayer substrate 20, and the back substrate insulating layer 82 constitutes the back substrate surface 22 of the multilayer substrate 20.

[0035] The intermediate conductive layer 60A is sandwiched between the front-side substrate insulating layer 81 and the intermediate substrate insulating layer 83A. The intermediate conductive layer 60B is sandwiched between the intermediate substrate insulating layer 83A and the intermediate substrate insulating layer 83B. The intermediate conductive layer 60C is sandwiched between the intermediate substrate insulating layer 83B and the intermediate substrate insulating layer 83C. The intermediate conductive layer 60D is sandwiched between the intermediate substrate insulating layer 83C and the back-side substrate insulating layer 82. The intermediate conductive layer 60A contacts the surface of the front-side substrate insulating layer 81 opposite to the surface on which the front conductive layer 30 is provided. The intermediate conductive layer 60D contacts the surface of the back-side substrate insulating layer 82 opposite to the surface on which the back conductive layer 70 is provided. In this way, the intermediate conductive layers 60A to 60D can be said to be provided on the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A to 83C. In one example, the intermediate conductive layers 60A to 60D are not exposed from the multilayer substrate 20.

[0036] The thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60A is thinner than the thicknesses of the intermediate conductive layers 60B and 60C. The thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60D is thinner than the thicknesses of the intermediate conductive layers 60B and 60C. In other words, the thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60A closer to the surface conductive layer 30 and the thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60D closer to the back conductive layer 70 among the intermediate conductive layers 60A to 60D are both thinner than the thicknesses of the intermediate conductive layers 60B and 60C disposed closer to the center in the thickness direction (Z direction) of the multilayer substrate 20 than the intermediate conductive layers 60A and 60D. The thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60A is equal to the thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60D. The thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60B is equal to the thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60C. The thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60A is thinner than the thickness of the surface conductive layer 30. The thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60D is thinner than the thickness of the back conductive layer 70. The thicknesses of the intermediate conductive layers 60C and 60D are thicker than the thickness of the surface conductive layer 30. The thickness of the intermediate conductive layers 60C and 60D is greater than the thickness of the back surface conductive layer 70.

[0037] The thicknesses of the multiple substrate insulating layers 80 can be changed as desired. In one example, the thickness of the front-side substrate insulating layer 81 may be equal to or greater than the thickness of any one of the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A to 83C. In one example, the thickness of the back-side substrate insulating layer 82 may be equal to or greater than the thickness of any one of the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A to 83C. In one example, the thicknesses of the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A to 83C may be different from one another. In one example, the thickness of the front-side substrate insulating layer 81 may be greater than 0.1 mm. In one example, the thickness of the back-side substrate insulating layer 82 may be greater than 0.1 mm.

[0038] Furthermore, the thicknesses of the surface conductive layer 30, the intermediate conductive layers 60A to 60D, and the back surface conductive layer 70 can each be changed as desired. In one example, the thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60A may be equal to or greater than the thickness of the surface conductive layer 30. In one example, the thickness of the intermediate conductive layer 60D may be equal to or greater than the thickness of the back surface conductive layer 70. In one example, the thicknesses of the intermediate conductive layers 60A and 60D may be equal to or greater than the thicknesses of the intermediate conductive layers 60B and 60C. In one example, the thicknesses of the intermediate conductive layers 60B and 60C may be equal to or less than the thickness of the surface conductive layer 30. In one example, the thicknesses of the intermediate conductive layers 60B and 60C may be equal to or less than the thickness of the back surface conductive layer 70.

[0039] 2, the multilayer substrate 20 may include a front-side insulating layer 84 that covers the front-side conductive layer 30 and a back-side insulating layer 85 that covers the back-side conductive layer 70. Both the front-side insulating layer 84 and the back-side insulating layer 85 may be made of, for example, solder resist.

[0040] The surface-side insulating layer 84 is provided over substantially the entire substrate surface 21 and surface conductive layer 30 shown in FIG. 1 . The surface-side insulating layer 84 may include a first opening exposing the substrate mounting hole 24, a second opening exposing the heat sink mounting hole 25, a third opening exposing the first power supply through hole 26, a fourth opening exposing the second power supply through hole 27, a fifth opening exposing the signal through hole 28, and a sixth opening exposing the connector mounting hole 29. The surface-side insulating layer 84 may include openings for forming pads for mounting elements. Note that, for convenience, the surface conductive layer 30 covered by the surface-side insulating layer 84 is shown by a solid line in FIG. 1 .

[0041] The back-side insulating layer 85 is provided over substantially the entire substrate back surface 22 and back-side conductive layer 70 shown in Fig. 2. The back-side insulating layer 85 may include a first opening exposing the substrate mounting hole 24 and a second opening exposing the heat sink mounting hole 25 shown in Fig. 1, a third opening exposing the first power supply through-hole 26, a fourth opening exposing the second power supply through-hole 27, a fifth opening exposing the signal through-hole 28, and a sixth opening exposing the connector mounting hole 29.

[0042] [Configuration of Light-Emitting Module] The configuration of the light-emitting module 100 will be described with reference to Figures 3 to 7. Figure 3 shows a schematic perspective structure of the light-emitting module 100. Figure 4 shows a schematic planar structure of the interior of the light-emitting module 100. Figure 5 shows a schematic bottom structure of the light-emitting module 100. Figure 6 shows a schematic cross-sectional structure of the light-emitting module 100 taken along line F6-F6 in Figure 4. Figure 7 shows a schematic cross-sectional structure of the light-emitting module 100 taken along line F7-F7 in Figure 4.

[0043] As shown in Figure 3, the light-emitting module 100 comprises a rectangular, flat substrate 110 with its thickness direction in the Z direction, a light-emitting element 150 (see Figure 4) provided on the substrate 110, and a case 170 provided on the substrate 110 and housing the light-emitting element 150.

[0044] In the first embodiment, the substrate 110 has a rectangular shape with its long sides in the X direction and its short sides in the Y direction in a plan view. The substrate 110 has a substrate front surface 111 and a substrate back surface 112 that constitute both sides in the Z direction, and first to fourth substrate side surfaces 113 to 116 that connect the substrate front surface 111 and the substrate back surface 112. The first substrate side surface 113 and the second substrate side surface 114 constitute both end surfaces of the substrate 110 in the X direction. The third substrate side surface 115 and the fourth substrate side surface 116 constitute both end surfaces of the substrate 110 in the Y direction. The substrate 110 may be made of, for example, glass epoxy resin. The substrate 110 may also be made of a material containing ceramic. Examples of materials containing ceramic include aluminum nitride (AlN) or alumina (Al 2 O 3When the substrate 110 is made of a material containing ceramic, the heat dissipation performance of the substrate 110 is improved, and therefore the temperature of the light emitting element 150 can be prevented from becoming excessively high.

[0045] As shown in FIG. 4 , the light-emitting element 150 functions as a light source for the light-emitting module 100, in other words, a light source for the light-emitting device 10. The light-emitting element 150 is, for example, an edge-emitting element configured to emit light in a direction intersecting the Z direction. The light-emitting element 150 is, for example, a laser diode that emits light in a predetermined wavelength band. That is, the light-emitting element 150 is an edge-emitting laser element. The configuration of the light-emitting element 150 as an edge-emitting laser element is not particularly limited, but in the first embodiment, a Fabry-Perot laser diode element is used. The light-emitting element 150 is configured to emit light toward the third substrate side surface 115 (the third substrate side surface 23C of the multilayer substrate 20 shown in FIG. 1 ) in a plan view.

[0046] As shown in FIG. 3 , the case 170 is box-shaped and opens in the Z direction toward the substrate 110. The case 170 has first to fourth side walls 171 to 174 configured in a rectangular frame shape in a plan view, and a top wall 175 that covers one end of the opening defined by the first to fourth side walls 171 to 174 in the Z direction. In one example, the first to fourth side walls 171 to 174 and the top wall 175 are integrally formed. The first side wall 171 and the second side wall 172 constitute side walls at both ends of the case 170 in the X direction. The first side wall 171 is disposed near the first substrate side surface 113 of the substrate 110 in a plan view, and the second side wall 172 is disposed near the second substrate side surface 114 of the substrate 110 in a plan view. The third side wall 173 and the fourth side wall 174 constitute side walls at both ends of the case 170 in the Y direction. The third side wall 173 is disposed near the third substrate side surface 115 of the substrate 110 in a plan view, and the fourth side wall 174 is disposed near the fourth substrate side surface 116 of the substrate 110 in a plan view. The first side wall 171, the second side wall 172, the fourth side wall 174, and the top wall 175 are translucent, and the third side wall 173 is transparent. Laser light from the light-emitting element 150 is emitted to the outside of the case 170 through the transparent third side wall 173. It is sufficient that at least the side wall of the case 170 in the emission direction of the light-emitting element 150 (i.e., the side wall through which the light from the light-emitting element 150 passes) is transparent. Therefore, at least one of the first side wall 171, the second side wall 172, the fourth side wall 174, and the top wall 175 may be transparent. The case 170 is made of, for example, a glass material. Instead of a glass material, the case 170 may be made of a transparent or translucent resin material. Examples of the resin material include acrylic resin, epoxy resin, etc. The configuration of the case 170 can be changed as desired. For example, of the first to fourth side walls 171 to 174, the side wall through which the laser light passes (the third side wall 173 in the first embodiment) may be omitted.

[0047] 4, the substrate 110 includes a plurality of surface conductive layers 120 (ten in the first embodiment) provided on a substrate surface 111 of the substrate 110. Each surface conductive layer 120 is made of, for example, copper foil. Note that the material of each surface conductive layer 120 is not limited to copper foil, and may include at least one of Al, Ni, palladium (Pd), Ag, and Au.

[0048] The multiple surface conductive layers 120 include multiple (eight in the first embodiment) wire connection electrodes 121 to which the wires WR described later are connected, a first mounting pattern 122 for mounting the light-emitting element 150, and a second mounting pattern 123 for mounting the case 170.

[0049] The first mounting pattern 122 is disposed on the substrate surface 111 in the Y direction closer to the third substrate side surface 115. The first mounting pattern 122 has a rectangular shape with its long side extending in the X direction and its short side extending in the Y direction in a plan view.

[0050] The multiple wire connection electrodes 121 are arranged to surround the first mounting pattern 122 from the first substrate side surface 113, the second substrate side surface 114, and the fourth substrate side surface 116 in a plan view. The multiple wire connection electrodes 121 are arranged to be in a line-symmetric relationship with respect to the center line CL. The multiple wire connection electrodes 121 have shapes that are line-symmetric with respect to the center line CL in a plan view. Here, the center line CL is located at the center of the substrate surface 21 in the X direction in a plan view and is a straight line extending along the Y direction. The arrangement and shape of the multiple wire connection electrodes 121 can be changed as desired.

[0051] The second mounting pattern 123 has a rectangular frame shape surrounding the first mounting pattern 122 and the multiple wire connection electrodes 121 in a plan view. The second mounting pattern 123 is not electrically connected to the light emitting element 150. In other words, the second mounting pattern 123 is in an electrically floating state. The material constituting the second mounting pattern 123 can be changed as desired. In one example, the second mounting pattern 123 may be made of an insulating material. In this case, the multiple surface conductive layers 120 do not include the second mounting pattern 123. It can be said that the second mounting pattern 123 surrounds the multiple surface conductive layers 120 in a plan view. The shape of the second mounting pattern 123 in a plan view can be changed as desired.

[0052] A surface resist 124 is provided on the substrate surface 21. In plan view, the surface resist 124 has a generally U-shape that surrounds the first mounting pattern 122 from the first substrate side surface 113, the second substrate side surface 114, and the fourth substrate side surface 116. In plan view, the surface resist 124 is disposed between the first mounting pattern 122 and the plurality of wire connection electrodes 121. The surface resist 124 is, for example, a solder resist. The solder resist is made of, for example, an insulating material. For example, an epoxy resin is used as the insulating material.

[0053] 5, the substrate 110 includes a plurality of (nine in the first embodiment) back surface conductive layers 130 provided on the substrate back surface 112 of the substrate 110. The plurality of back surface conductive layers 130 are arranged spaced apart from one another. The plurality of back surface conductive layers 130 are made of, for example, copper foil. Note that the plurality of back surface conductive layers 130 are not limited to copper foil, and may include at least one of Al, Ni, Pd, Ag, and Au.

[0054] The multiple back surface conductive layers 130 include multiple (eight in the first embodiment) first back surface conductive layers 131 and second back surface conductive layers 132. The multiple first back surface conductive layers 131 are provided corresponding to the multiple wire connection electrodes 121 (see FIG. 4 ). The multiple first back surface conductive layers 131 are electrically connected to the corresponding wire connection electrodes 121, respectively. The multiple first back surface conductive layers 131 include portions that overlap with the multiple wire connection electrodes 121 in a plan view. The multiple first back surface conductive layers 131 are arranged in a line-symmetric relationship with respect to the center line CL in a plan view. The multiple first back surface conductive layers 131 have shapes that are line-symmetric with respect to the center line CL in a plan view.

[0055] The second back surface conductive layer 132 is electrically connected to the first mounting pattern 122 (see FIG. 4 ). The second back surface conductive layer 132 is arranged closer to the third substrate side surface 115 than the multiple first back surface conductive layers 131. The second back surface conductive layer 132 is convex in plan view. More specifically, the second back surface conductive layer 132 includes a strip-shaped main body portion extending in the X direction and a protruding portion protruding from the center of the main body portion in the X direction toward the fourth substrate side surface 116. The protruding portion is rectangular in plan view with its long sides extending in the X direction and its short sides extending in the Y direction.

[0056] 4, 5, and 7, the substrate 110 includes a plurality of through electrodes 140 (nine in the first embodiment). The through electrodes 140 connect the front surface conductive layer 120 and the back surface conductive layer 130. The through electrodes 140 penetrate the substrate 110 in the Z direction. Each through electrode 140 is made of a material containing Cu, for example. Note that each through electrode 140 is not limited to Cu, and may contain at least one of Ti, W, and Al.

[0057] The plurality of through electrodes 140 includes a plurality of (eight in the first embodiment) first through electrodes 141 and second through electrodes 142. The plurality of first through electrodes 141 individually connect the plurality of wire connection electrodes 121 and the plurality of first back surface conductive layers 131. Each of the first through electrodes 141 has a columnar shape that fills a through hole provided in the substrate 110. The plurality of first through electrodes 141 have the same size. Each of the first through electrodes 141 has an oval shape in a planar view. The plurality of first through electrodes 141 are arranged so as to be line-symmetrical with respect to the center line CL in a planar view. The plurality of first through electrodes 141 have a shape that is line-symmetrical with respect to the center line CL in a planar view. The shape of each of the first through electrodes 141 in a planar view can be arbitrarily changed. Each of the first through electrodes 141 may have a circular shape, an elliptical shape, a polygonal shape, or the like in a planar view.

[0058] The second through electrode 142 connects the first mounting pattern 122 and the second back surface conductive layer 132. The second through electrode 142 has a rectangular shape with its long sides in the X direction and its short sides in the Y direction in plan view.

[0059] As shown in FIG. 5 , a back surface resist 133 is provided on the back surface 112 of the substrate, covering the plurality of back surface conductive layers 130. The back surface resist 133 is, for example, a solder resist. The solder resist is made of, for example, an insulating material. For example, an epoxy resin is used as the insulating material. In one example, the back surface resist 133 may be made of the same material as the front surface resist 124 (see FIG. 4 ). Note that in FIG. 5 , the portions of the plurality of back surface conductive layers 130 that overlap with the back surface resist 133 are indicated by dashed lines.

[0060] The rear surface resist 133 covers most of the substrate rear surface 112. The rear surface resist 133 includes a plurality of openings corresponding to the plurality of first rear surface conductive layers 131 and the plurality of second rear surface conductive layers 132. The rear surface resist 133 includes a plurality of (eight in the first embodiment) first openings 134 and a plurality of (six in the first embodiment) second openings 135. The plurality of first openings 134 are provided so as to individually expose the plurality of first rear surface conductive layers 131. Each of the plurality of second openings 135 is provided so as to expose the second rear surface conductive layer 132.

[0061] 4 , the light-emitting module 100 includes a submount 160 that supports the light-emitting element 150. The submount 160 is mounted on the first mounting pattern 122. In one example, the submount 160 is die-bonded to the first mounting pattern 122. Note that the first mounting pattern 122 may be integrated with the submount 160.

[0062] The surface resist 124 allows the die bonding material (not shown) used to die bond the submount 160 to the first mounting pattern 122 to remain on the first mounting pattern 122. Examples of the die bonding material include conductive bonding materials such as solder paste, Ag paste, Au paste, and Cu paste. In this way, the surface resist 124 is provided between the first mounting pattern 122 and the plurality of wire connection electrodes 121, so that the first mounting pattern 122 and the plurality of wire connection electrodes 121 can be prevented from being electrically connected by the conductive bonding material.

[0063] The submount 160 has a flat plate shape with its thickness direction aligned in the Z direction. The submount 160 has a rectangular shape with its long sides aligned in the X direction and its short sides aligned in the Y direction in plan view. In one example, the submount 160 is slightly smaller than the first mounting pattern 122 in plan view.

[0064] The submount 160 is made of, for example, a material containing silicon (Si). The submount 160 may be made of a material containing ceramic. The submount 160 may also be made of a conductive material. Examples of conductive materials include Cu and Al. When the submount 160 is made of ceramic or a conductive material, the heat dissipation performance of the submount 160 is improved. This makes it easier for heat from the light-emitting element 150 to transfer to the substrate 110 through the submount 160. This makes it possible to prevent the temperature of the light-emitting element 150 from becoming excessively high.

[0065] 6 and 7, the thickness of the submount 160 is greater than the thickness of the substrate 110. The thickness of the submount 160 can be changed as desired. The thickness of the submount 160 may be equal to or less than the thickness of the substrate 110.

[0066] The submount 160 has a front surface 161 and a back surface 162 that form both surfaces in the Z direction. In one example, the light emitting element 150 is mounted on the front surface 161 of the submount 160. The light emitting element 150 is die-bonded to the front surface 161 of the submount 160.

[0067] The submount 160 includes a through electrode 163 penetrating through the submount 160 in its thickness direction. The through electrode 163 is made of a material containing Cu, for example. Note that the through electrode 163 is not limited to Cu and may contain at least one of Ti, W, and Al. In the first embodiment, there is one through electrode 163, but multiple through electrodes 163 may be provided. In one example, the number of through electrodes 163 may be the same as the number of element electrodes 153 (eight in the first embodiment) of the light-emitting element 150, which will be described later. Note that if the submount 160 is made of a conductive material, the through electrode 163 may be omitted. The through electrode 163 is electrically connected to the first mounting pattern 122 by a conductive bonding material.

[0068] As shown in Figures 2, 6, and 7, the light-emitting element 150 mounted on the surface 161 of the submount 160 is flat and has a thickness in the Z direction. As shown in Figure 4, the light-emitting element 150 is rectangular in shape with its long sides in the X direction and its short sides in the Y direction in a plan view. In one example, the light-emitting element 150 is slightly smaller than the submount 160 in a plan view. The light-emitting element 150 is disposed at the center of the substrate 110 in the X direction in a plan view. Therefore, it can be said that the center line CL is located at the center of the light-emitting element 150 in the X direction.

[0069] As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the light emitting element 150 includes an element front surface 151 and an element back surface 152 which constitute both surfaces in the Z direction, and a plurality of element electrodes 153 provided on the element front surface 151.

[0070] The plurality of element electrodes 153 are arranged in a line in the X direction. Each element electrode 153 is made of, for example, Au. Note that each element electrode 153 is not limited to Au and may contain at least one of Al, Ni, Pd, Ag, and Cu. In the first embodiment, each element electrode 153 constitutes an anode of the light-emitting element 150.

[0071] 4, the light-emitting element 150 includes a plurality of light-emitting portions 154 corresponding to a plurality of element electrodes 153. Therefore, in the first embodiment, the light-emitting element 150 includes eight light-emitting portions 154. The plurality of light-emitting portions 154 are arranged in a row in the X direction. Four of the eight light-emitting portions 154 are arranged closer to the first substrate side surface 113 than the center line CL, and the remaining four light-emitting portions 154 are arranged closer to the second substrate side surface 114 than the center line CL. Each light-emitting portion 154 is configured to emit laser light toward the third substrate side surface 115 in a plan view.

[0072] 6 and 7 , the light-emitting element 150 includes a back surface conductive layer 155 provided on the element back surface 152. In one example, the back surface conductive layer 155 is provided over the entire element back surface 152. The back surface conductive layer 155 is made of, for example, Au. Note that the back surface conductive layer 155 is not limited to Au, and may contain at least one of Al, Ni, Pd, Ag, and Cu. In the first embodiment, the back surface conductive layer 155 forms the cathode of the light-emitting element 150.

[0073] The light-emitting element 150 is mounted on the submount 160 by a conductive bonding material (not shown). Therefore, the back surface conductive layer 155 is electrically connected to the submount 160 (through electrode 163) by the conductive bonding material. Examples of the conductive bonding material include solder paste, Ag paste, Au paste, and Cu paste. The second back surface conductive layer 132 electrically connected to the through electrode 163 of the submount 160 constitutes a cathode terminal.

[0074] 4, the light-emitting module 100 includes a plurality of wires WR that individually and electrically connect the light-emitting elements 150 to a plurality of wire-connecting electrodes 121. Each light-emitting section 154 is connected to the wire-connecting electrode 121 electrically connected to the light-emitting section 154 by a plurality of wires WR (four in the first embodiment). The number of wires WR can be changed as desired. A plurality of first back surface conductive layers 131 electrically connected to the plurality of wire-connecting electrodes 121 constitute anode terminals.

[0075] [Configuration of the Drive Circuit] The configuration of the drive circuit 200 will be described with reference to Fig. 2 and Fig. 8. Fig. 8 shows a schematic planar structure of the light-emitting module 100, the drive circuit 200, and the surrounding area in an enlarged scale in Fig. 1 .

[0076] 8 , the drive circuit 200 is configured to drive the light emitting module 100. The drive circuit 200 is configured to drive the light emitting element 150 of the light emitting module 100. The drive circuit 200 is connected to the surface conductive layer 30.

[0077] The drive circuit 200 includes a transistor 210 and one or more capacitors 220. The transistor 210 is configured to control driving of the light-emitting element 150. The capacitor 220 is configured to supply current to the light-emitting element 150. In one example, the drive circuit 200 may include six or more capacitors 220. In the first embodiment, the drive circuit 200 includes twelve capacitors 220. The capacitors 220 are arranged at the same position in the Y direction and spaced apart from each other in the X direction. The number of capacitors 220 may be changed as appropriate, for example, depending on the light-emitting element 150 of the light-emitting module 100. When viewed from the Y direction, some of the multiple capacitors 220 are arranged further outward in the X direction than the transistor 210. In the first embodiment, some of the multiple capacitors 220 are arranged closer to the first substrate side surface 23A than the transistor 210. Another part of the multiple capacitors 220 are arranged closer to the second substrate side surface 23B than the transistor 210. In the first embodiment, some of the capacitors 220 are arranged closer to the first substrate side surface 23A than the light-emitting module 100. Another part of the capacitors 220 are arranged closer to the second substrate side surface 23B than the light-emitting module 100.

[0078] The light-emitting module 100, the transistor 210, and the capacitor 220 are arranged spaced apart from one another in the Y direction in a plan view. The capacitor 220 is arranged between the light-emitting module 100 and the transistor 210 in the Y direction. Therefore, it can also be said that the capacitor 220 is arranged between the light-emitting element 150 and the transistor 210 in the Y direction.

[0079] The transistor 210 has a quadrangular shape in a plan view. In one example, the transistor 210 has a rectangular shape with the dimension in the X direction longer than the dimension in the Y direction. The transistor 210 includes, for example, a lateral transistor. The lateral transistor may include, for example, a nitride semiconductor. The lateral transistor may be, for example, a high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) made of a nitride semiconductor such as gallium nitride (GaN). The lateral transistor may also be a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET). Note that the shape of the transistor 210 in a plan view can be changed as desired.

[0080] 2 , the transistor 210 includes a first element surface 211 and a second element surface 212 opposite the first element surface 211. The transistor 210 includes a source electrode 213, a drain electrode 214, and a gate electrode 215 (all of which are shown in FIG. 8 ) provided on the first element surface 211. The transistor 210 is mounted with the first element surface 211 facing the multilayer substrate 20. Therefore, the first element surface 211 is the surface facing the surface conductive layer 30. The first element surface 211 is disposed closer to the surface conductive layer 30 than the second element surface 212.

[0081] 8 , a plurality of source electrodes 213 and a plurality of drain electrodes 214 (three of each in the first embodiment) are provided. The plurality of source electrodes 213 and the plurality of drain electrodes 214 are alternately arranged one by one in the X direction. The gate electrodes 215 are provided at corner portions of the first element surface 211 in a plan view.

[0082] Each capacitor 220 may be, for example, a ceramic capacitor. Each capacitor 220 has a rectangular shape in a plan view. Each capacitor 220 has two long sides along the Y direction and two short sides along the X direction. Each capacitor 220 includes a first electrode 221 and a second electrode 222.

Meanwhile, the ground wiring 62A is electrically connected to both the second through hole 26B of the first power supply through hole 26 and the second through hole 27B of the second power supply through hole 27.

In other words, each second element connection via 87 electrically connects the intermediate wiring 61A to the transistor 210. The drain electrode 214 of the transistor 210 is electrically connected to the intermediate wiring 61A through each drain wiring 55 and each second element connection via 87.

[0173] In this way, in the light-emitting device 10, a loop-shaped path is formed through which a driving current flows in the following order: the first electrode 221 of the capacitor 220 of the driving circuit 200, the first power supply wiring 40, the first back surface conductive layer 131 (see FIG. 5 ) of the light-emitting module 100, the light-emitting element 150, the second back surface conductive layer 132 (see FIG. 5 ), the second power supply wiring 47, the first element connecting via 86, the intermediate wiring 61A, the second element connecting via 87, the drain wiring 55, the drain electrode 214 of the transistor 210, the source electrode 213, the third power supply wiring 50, and the second electrode 222 of the capacitor 220. Here, the driving current is a current that drives the light-emitting element 150.

[0174] The third element connecting via 88 is provided at a position overlapping both the third gate wiring 58 and the control power supply wiring 63A in plan view. The third element connecting via 88 electrically connects the third gate wiring 58 and the control power supply wiring 63A. In this way, an operating current is supplied to the gate driver 230 through the first through hole 27A of the second power supply through hole 27, the control power supply wiring 63A, the third element connecting via 88, and the third gate wiring 58.

[0175] [Circuit Configuration of Light-Emitting Device and Light-Emitting System] The circuit configuration of the light-emitting device 10 will be described with reference to Fig. 19. Fig. 19 shows a schematic circuit configuration of a light-emitting system 800 including the light-emitting device 10.

[0176] 19 , a light-emitting system 800 includes a light-emitting device 10, a DC power supply 801, a control power supply 802, and a pulse generator 803. The DC power supply 801, the input capacitor 320, and the current-limiting resistor 300 are configured to supply current to the light-emitting module 100 and the drive circuit 200. A first terminal 301 of the current-limiting resistor 300 closest to the DC power supply 801 among the multiple current-limiting resistors 300 is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the DC power supply 801 and the first electrode of the input capacitor 320. A second terminal 302 of the current-limiting resistor 300 closest to the light-emitting module 100 among the multiple current-limiting resistors 300 is electrically connected to the first back surface conductive layer 131 (anode electrode, see FIG. 5 ) of the light-emitting module 100 and the first electrode 221 of the capacitor 220 of the drive circuit 200.

[0177] The gate driver 230 is electrically connected to the gate electrode 215 of the transistor 210. The pulse generator 803, the control power supply 802, and the capacitor 232 are each electrically connected to the gate driver 230. The pulse generator 803 is electrically connected to the signal input connector 333 (see FIG. 1). The pulse generator 803 is configured to output a pulse signal to the gate driver 230 for controlling the transistor 210. The control power supply 802 is electrically connected to the second power supply connector 332 (see FIG. 1). The control power supply 802 is configured to supply an operating current to the gate driver 230 through the second power supply connector 332. The capacitor 232 is connected in parallel with the control power supply 802. The capacitor 232 is configured to reduce noise from the control power supply 802.

[0178] The negative electrode of the DC power supply 801, the second electrode of the input capacitor 320, the pulse generator 803, the second electrode 222 of the capacitor 220, the negative electrode of the control power supply 802, and the source electrode 213 of the transistor 210 are each electrically connected to the back surface conductive layer 70 (see Figure 18).

[0179] The drain electrode 214 of the transistor 210 is electrically connected to the second back surface conductive layer 132 (see FIG. 5 ) of the light-emitting module 100 and the anode electrode 311 of the protection diode 310. The cathode electrode 312 of the protection diode 310 is electrically connected to the auxiliary resistor 313. The auxiliary resistor 313 is electrically connected to the first back surface conductive layer 131 of the light-emitting module 100.

[0180] In the light-emitting device 10 configured as described above, when the transistor 210 of the drive circuit 200 is in an off state, the capacitor 220 is charged by the DC power supply 801. Then, when the transistor 210 switches from an off state to an on state, a drive current flows from the capacitor 220 to the light-emitting module 100. The drive current flows from the light-emitting element 150 to the second power supply wiring 47. When the transistor 210 is repeatedly turned on and off by a pulsed control signal supplied from the pulse generator 803, pulsed laser light is emitted from the light-emitting module 100. In this manner, the drive circuit 200 is configured to drive the light-emitting module 100.

[0181] [Heat Dissipation Structure] The heat dissipation structure of the light-emitting device 10 will be described with reference to FIGS. 9, 12, and 20 to 32.

[0182] (Through Vias) As shown in FIG. 9 , the multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of through vias 89. Each through via 89 penetrates the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction. The plurality of through vias 89 electrically connect the third power supply wiring 50 of the front surface conductive layer 30, the ground wirings 62A-62D of the intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D (see FIGS. 14-17), and the back surface conductive layer 70 (see FIG. 18). The plurality of through vias 89 are not provided in the first power supply wiring 40 or the second power supply wiring 47. The plurality of through vias 89 are not provided in the intermediate wirings 61A-61D (see FIGS. 14-17). Each through via 89 is cylindrical. The through vias 89 are provided at positions different from the control power supply wiring 63A (see FIG. 14) in a plan view. The plurality of through vias 89 are arranged, for example, in a matrix. The through vias 89 are provided, for example, on the side surfaces of through holes that penetrate the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction. The through via 89 has a cylindrical shape. In one example, the through via 89 has a cylindrical shape. The through via 89 may be made of one or more materials selected from the group including, for example, Cu, Al, Ti, TiN, Au, Ag, and W. In one example, the through via 89 is made of a material including Cu.

[0183] (Pad Heat Dissipation Vias and Inter-Pad Heat Dissipation Vias) As shown in FIG. 20 , the multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of pad heat dissipation vias 90. Each pad heat dissipation via 90 is provided within the multilayer substrate 20. Each pad heat dissipation via 90 is connected to the intermediate conductive layer 60A. More specifically, each pad heat dissipation via 90 is connected to the ground wiring 62A of the intermediate conductive layer 60A. The pad heat dissipation via 90 may be made of one or more materials selected from the group including, for example, Cu, Al, Ti, TiN, Au, Ag, and W. In one example, the pad heat dissipation via 90 is made of a material including Cu.

[0184] 21 , the plurality of pad heat dissipation vias 90 are provided at positions overlapping both the pad region 46 and the back surface conductive layer 70 (see FIG. 18 ) in a plan view. More specifically, the plurality of pad heat dissipation vias 90 are provided at positions overlapping both the resistor pad regions 46A to 46C and the back surface conductive layer 70 in a plan view. In one example, a plurality of pad heat dissipation vias 90 are provided corresponding to the plurality of resistor pad regions 46A to 46C. The plurality of pad heat dissipation vias 90 are provided at positions overlapping both the diode pad region 46D and the back surface conductive layer 70 in a plan view. The plurality of pad heat dissipation vias 90 are provided at positions overlapping both the auxiliary resistor pad region 46E and the back surface conductive layer 70 in a plan view. Hereinafter, among the multiple pad heat dissipation vias 90, the heat dissipation vias corresponding to the resistor pad regions 46A to 46C will be referred to as "resistor heat dissipation vias 91," the heat dissipation vias corresponding to the diode pad region 46D will be referred to as "diode heat dissipation vias 92," and the heat dissipation vias corresponding to the auxiliary resistor pad region 46E will be referred to as "auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93." Note that when there is no need to distinguish between the resistor heat dissipation vias 91, diode heat dissipation vias 92, and auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93, or when describing a common configuration, they will be referred to as "pad heat dissipation vias 90."

[0185] The plurality of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 are arranged in a matrix in plan view. The number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 arranged in the X direction is greater than the number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 arranged in the Y direction. The plurality of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 are provided at positions overlapping with each of the two resistor pad regions 46A in plan view. The plurality of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 are provided at positions overlapping with each of the two resistor pad regions 46B in plan view. The plurality of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 are provided at positions overlapping with each of the two resistor pad regions 46C in plan view.

[0186] The plurality of diode heat dissipation vias 92 are arranged in a row in the Y direction in a plan view. The plurality of auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 are arranged in a matrix in a plan view. The number of auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 arranged in the X direction is greater than the number of auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 arranged in the Y direction. The plurality of auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 are provided at positions overlapping with each of the two auxiliary resistor pad regions 46E in a plan view. In the example shown in FIG. 21 , the number of auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 arranged in the X direction is equal to the number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 arranged in the X direction. The number of auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 arranged in the Y direction is equal to the number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 arranged in the Y direction.

[0187] The multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 to 96. Each of the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 to 96 is connected to the intermediate conductive layer 60A. More specifically, each of the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 to 96 is connected to the ground wiring 62A of the intermediate conductive layer 60A.

[0188] The inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94-96 are provided between the pad regions 46. More specifically, the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 are provided between two resistor pad regions 46A adjacent to each other in the Y direction. The inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 are provided between two resistor pad regions 46B adjacent to each other in the Y direction. The inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 are provided between two resistor pad regions 46C adjacent to each other in the Y direction. In one example, the number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 may be greater than the number of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94. In one example, the arrangement pitch of the resistor heat dissipation vias 91 may be equal to the arrangement pitch of the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94.

[0189] In this way, the plurality of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 and the plurality of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 can be said to be provided at positions that overlap with the current limiting resistor 300 (see FIG. 12 ) in a plan view. In other words, the multilayer substrate 20 can be said to include a first heat dissipation via provided in a first arrangement region, which is a region that overlaps with the current limiting resistor 300 in a plan view.

[0190] The plurality of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 95 are provided between the diode pad region 46D and the diode pad region 49C of the second power supply wiring 47, which are adjacent to each other in the X direction. The plurality of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 95 are arranged in a matrix in a plan view. In this manner, the plurality of diode heat dissipation vias 92 and the plurality of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 95 can be said to be provided at positions overlapping with the protection diodes 310 (see FIG. 12 ) in a plan view. In one example, the number of diode heat dissipation vias 92 may be less than the number of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 95. The plurality of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 95 are provided at positions overlapping with both the fifth wiring portion 45 and the narrow portion 48A of the second power supply wiring 47 in a plan view.

[0191] The plurality of diode heat dissipation vias 92, the plurality of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 95, and the plurality of diode heat dissipation vias 99 described below are located at positions overlapping the protection diodes 310 in a plan view. In other words, the multilayer substrate 20 includes second heat dissipation vias located in a second arrangement region that is a region overlapping the protection diodes 310 in a plan view.

[0192] The plurality of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 96 are provided between two auxiliary resistor pad regions 46E. The plurality of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 96 are arranged in a matrix in plan view. The number of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 96 arranged in the X direction is greater than the number of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 96 arranged in the Y direction. In this manner, the plurality of auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 and the plurality of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 96 can be said to be provided at positions overlapping with the auxiliary resistors 313 (see FIG. 12 ) in plan view. In one example, the number of auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 may be greater than the number of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 95.

[0193] In this way, the plurality of auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 and the plurality of inter-pad heat dissipation vias 96 can be said to be provided at positions that overlap the auxiliary resistors 313 in a plan view. In other words, the multilayer substrate 20 can be said to include a third heat dissipation via provided in a third arrangement region, which is a region that overlaps the auxiliary resistors 313 in a plan view.

[0194] (Cross-sectional Structure of Heat Dissipation Vias) As shown in FIG. 22 , the resistor heat dissipation vias 91 are disposed apart from the first power supply wiring 40 in the Z direction. That is, the resistor heat dissipation vias 91 are not electrically connected to the first power supply wiring 40. On the other hand, the resistor heat dissipation vias 91 are electrically connected to the intermediate conductive layer 60A. More specifically, the resistor heat dissipation vias 91 are electrically connected to the ground wiring 62A. The diode heat dissipation vias 92 shown in FIG. 23 and the auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 shown in FIG. 24 are also electrically connected to the ground wiring 62A. Note that, as shown in FIGS. 22 to 24 , the resistor heat dissipation vias 91, the diode heat dissipation vias 92, and the auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 have the same cross-sectional structure. For this reason, the following description will be given of the cross-sectional structure of the pad heat dissipation vias 90.

[0195] As shown in FIGS. 22 to 24 , each pad heat dissipation via 90 includes a front-side pad via 90A that is spaced apart from the first power supply wiring 40 and closer to the back surface conductive layer 70 in the Z direction, and a back surface pad via 90B that is closer to the back surface conductive layer 70 than the front-side pad via 90A in the Z direction. The back surface pad via 90B is connected to the back surface conductive layer 70. The front surface pad via 90A and the back surface pad via 90B are spaced apart from each other in the Z direction. The front surface pad via 90A and the back surface pad via 90B are individually provided. In this manner, each pad heat dissipation via 90 is connected to the multiple intermediate conductive layers 60A to 60D (ground wirings 62A to 62D) and the back surface conductive layer 70. Therefore, the ground wirings 62A to 62D and the back surface conductive layer 70 are electrically connected through each pad heat dissipation via 90.

[0196] The surface-side pad via 90A is connected to a plurality of intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D. It can also be said that the surface-side pad via 90A is connected to a plurality of ground wirings 62A-62D. The surface-side pad via 90A penetrates the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A-83C and the intermediate conductive layers 60B, 60C in the Z direction. The surface-side pad via 90A is provided, for example, on the side of a through hole that penetrates the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A-83C and the intermediate conductive layers 60B, 60C in the Z direction in the multilayer substrate 20. The surface-side pad via 90A is, for example, cylindrical. In one example, the diameter of the surface-side pad via 90A in a plan view is smaller than the diameter of the through via 89 in a plan view.

[0197] The back-side pad via 90B connects the back-side conductive layer 70 and the intermediate conductive layer 60D. Therefore, both the front-side pad via 90A and the back-side pad via 90B are connected to the intermediate conductive layer 60D. In other words, the front-side pad via 90A and the back-side pad via 90B are electrically connected through the intermediate conductive layer 60D. The back-side pad via 90B may be provided at a position different from the front-side pad via 90A in a plan view. The back-side pad via 90B may be formed by, for example, a conductive material filled in a hole formed by laser processing.

[0198] A plurality of front-side pad vias 90A and a plurality of back-side pad vias 90B are provided. In the example shown in FIG. 22 , the arrangement pitch P2 of the back-side pad vias 90B is smaller than the arrangement pitch P1 of the front-side pad vias 90A. These arrangement pitches P1 and P2 are smaller than the arrangement pitch PT of the plurality of through vias 89 (see FIG. 13 ). The number of back-side pad vias 90B is greater than the number of front-side pad vias 90A. Here, the arrangement pitch P1 of the front-side pad vias 90A can be defined by the center-to-center distance between the front-side pad vias 90A adjacent to each other in the X direction or the Y direction. The arrangement pitch P2 of the back-side pad vias 90B can be defined by the center-to-center distance between the back-side pad vias 90B adjacent to each other in the X direction or the Y direction. The arrangement pitch PT of the through vias 89 can be defined by the center-to-center distance between the through vias 89 adjacent to each other in the X direction or the Y direction.

[0199] The thickness TS of the front-side pad via 90A is greater than the thickness TR of the back-side pad via 90B. The distance D1 in the Z direction between the front-side pad via 90A and the substrate front surface 21 of the multilayer substrate 20 is equal to the distance D2 in the Z direction between the front-side pad via 90A and the substrate back surface 22 of the multilayer substrate 20.

[0200] The inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 to 96 include front-side pad vias and back-side pad vias. The cross-sectional structures of the front-side pad vias and back-side pad vias of the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 to 96 are the same as the cross-sectional structure of the pad heat dissipation via 90, so detailed description thereof will be omitted.

[0201] (Diode Heat Dissipation Vias) As shown in FIG. 21 , the multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of diode heat dissipation vias 99. The plurality of diode heat dissipation vias 99 are provided within the multilayer substrate 20. The plurality of diode heat dissipation vias 99 are provided at positions overlapping both the diode pad region 49C of the second power supply wiring 47 and the back surface conductive layer 70 in a plan view. The plurality of diode heat dissipation vias 99 are arranged in a row in the Y direction in a plan view. The cross-sectional structure of the diode heat dissipation vias 99 is the same as the cross-sectional structure of the pad heat dissipation vias 90. The diode heat dissipation vias 99 may be made of one or more materials selected from a group including, for example, Cu, Al, Ti, TiN, Au, Ag, and W. In one example, the diode heat dissipation vias 99 are made of a material including Cu.

[0202] (First Element Heat Dissipation Vias) As shown in FIGS. 25 and 26 , the multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of first element heat dissipation vias 97. The plurality of first element heat dissipation vias 97 are provided within the multilayer substrate 20. The plurality of first element heat dissipation vias 97 are provided in positions overlapping both the first element arrangement region RA in which the light emitting module 100 is arranged and the back surface conductive layer 70 (see FIG. 18 ) in a planar view. Therefore, it can be said that the plurality of first element heat dissipation vias 97 are provided in positions overlapping both the region in which the light emitting element 150 is arranged and the back surface conductive layer 70 in a planar view. In FIG. 25 , the first element arrangement region RA is indicated by a rectangular frame defined by two-dot chain lines. The first element arrangement region RA is a region overlapping with the light emitting module 100 (see FIG. 13 ) in a planar view.

[0203] As shown in FIG. 25 , the multiple first element heat dissipation vias 97 are biased in the Y direction relative to the first element placement area RA. More specifically, the multiple first element heat dissipation vias 97 are arranged closer to the third substrate side surface 23C in the first element placement area RA. Therefore, the multiple first element heat dissipation vias 97 are mainly arranged in positions overlapping with the second power supply wiring 47 in a planar view. Some of the multiple first element heat dissipation vias 97 are arranged in positions overlapping with the second portion 44B of the fourth wiring portion 44 of the first power supply wiring 40 in a planar view. Also, as shown in FIG. 25 , the multiple first element heat dissipation vias 97 include those arranged in positions overlapping with the light emitting element pad areas 46G, 49A in a planar view and those arranged in positions different from the light emitting element pad areas 46G, 49A in a planar view. In the example shown in FIG. 25 , the area where the first element heat dissipation vias 97 are arranged in a planar view is wider than the area where the first element connection vias 86 are arranged in a planar view. The first element heat dissipation via 97 may be made of one or more materials selected from the group including, for example, Cu, Al, Ti, TiN, Au, Ag, and W. In one example, the first element heat dissipation via 97 is made of a material including Cu.

[0204] 26 , the multiple first element heat dissipation vias 97 are arranged at positions overlapping with the intermediate wiring 61A of the intermediate conductive layer 60A in a planar view. More specifically, the multiple first element heat dissipation vias 97 are arranged offset in the Y direction with respect to the intermediate wiring 61A in a planar view. Even more specifically, the multiple first element heat dissipation vias 97 are arranged closer to the third substrate side surface 23C of the intermediate wiring 61A in a planar view. Because the intermediate wirings 61B to 61D overlap with the intermediate wiring 61A in a planar view, it can also be said that the multiple first element heat dissipation vias 97 are arranged at positions overlapping with the intermediate wirings 61B to 61D in a planar view.

[0205] 27 , each first element heat dissipation via 97 is disposed at a distance from both the front surface conductive layer 30 and the back surface conductive layer 70 in the Z direction. Each first element heat dissipation via 97 and each first element connecting via 86 are disposed at a distance from each other in the Z direction. Each first element connecting via 86 is provided closer to the front surface conductive layer 30 than each first element heat dissipation via 97.

[0206] Each first element heat dissipation via 97, which is located closer to the back surface conductive layer 70 than each first element connection via 86, is connected to multiple intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D. More specifically, each first element heat dissipation via 97 is connected to multiple intermediate wirings 61A-61D. Each first element heat dissipation via 97 penetrates the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A-83C and the intermediate conductive layers 60B, 60C in the Z direction. The first element heat dissipation via 97 is located, for example, on a side surface of the multilayer substrate 20 that constitutes a through hole penetrating the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A-83C and the intermediate conductive layers 60B, 60C in the Z direction. The first element heat dissipation via 97 is, for example, cylindrical. In one example, the diameter of the first element heat dissipation via 97 in a plan view is smaller than the diameter of the through via 89 (see FIG. 26 ) in a plan view. In one example, the diameter of the first element heat dissipation via 97 in plan view is equal to the diameter of the front surface side pad via 90A (see FIG. 22) in plan view.

[0207] Since each first element connecting via 86 is connected to the intermediate conductive layer 60A, both each first element heat dissipation via 97 and each first element connecting via 86 are connected to the intermediate conductive layer 60A. More specifically, both each first element heat dissipation via 97 and each first element connecting via 86 are connected to the intermediate wiring 61A.

[0208] The thickness TT1 of the first element heat dissipation via 97 is thicker than the thickness TC of the first element connection via 86. The thickness TT1 may be equal to the thickness TS of the front-side pad via 90A (see FIG. 22 ). The thickness TC may be equal to the thickness TR of the back-side pad via 90B (see FIG. 22 ). A distance D3 between the first element heat dissipation via 97 and the substrate front surface 21 of the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction is equal to a distance D4 between the first element heat dissipation via 97 and the substrate back surface 22 of the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction. The distance D3 may be equal to the distance D1 between the front-side pad via 90A and the substrate front surface 21 of the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction (see FIG. 22 ). The distance D4 may be equal to the distance D2 between the front-side pad via 90A and the substrate back surface 22 of the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction (see FIG. 22 ).

[0209] In the example shown in FIG. 27 , the arrangement pitch P3 of the first element heat dissipation vias 97 is smaller than the arrangement pitch PT of the multiple through vias 89. Furthermore, the arrangement pitches P4 and P5 of the first element connection vias 86 are smaller than the arrangement pitch PT of the multiple through vias 89. The arrangement pitch P5 is smaller than the arrangement pitch P4. The arrangement pitches P4 and P5 of the first element connection vias 86 are different from the arrangement pitch P3 of the first element heat dissipation vias 97. In one example, the arrangement pitch P4 is larger than the arrangement pitch P3. The arrangement pitch P5 is smaller than the arrangement pitch P3. The number of first element connection vias 86 is smaller than the number of first element heat dissipation vias 97. Here, the arrangement pitch P3 of the first element heat dissipation vias 97 can be defined by the center-to-center distance between first element heat dissipation vias 97 adjacent to each other in the X direction or the Y direction. The arrangement pitches P4 and P5 of the first element connection vias 86 can be defined by the center-to-center distance between first element connection vias 86 adjacent to each other in the X direction. The arrangement pitch P5 of the first element heat dissipation vias 97 may be equal to the arrangement pitch P1 of the front surface-side pad vias 90A (see FIG. 22).

[0210] 25, the arrangement pitch P6 of the first element connection vias 86 may be equal to the arrangement pitch P5 shown in FIG. 27. Therefore, the arrangement pitch P6 is different from the arrangement pitch P3 (see FIG. 27) of the first element heat dissipation vias 97. The arrangement pitch P6 is smaller than the arrangement pitch P3. Here, the arrangement pitch P6 can be defined by the center-to-center distance between first element connection vias 86 adjacent to each other in the Y direction.

[0211] (Second Element Heat Dissipation Vias) As shown in FIGS. 26 and 28 , the multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of second element heat dissipation vias 98. The plurality of second element heat dissipation vias 98 are provided within the multilayer substrate 20. The plurality of second element heat dissipation vias 98 are provided in positions overlapping both the second element placement region RB, in which the transistor 210 of the drive circuit 200 (see FIG. 13 ) is arranged, and the back surface conductive layer 70 (see FIG. 18 ) in plan view. In FIG. 28 , the second element placement region RB is indicated by a rectangular frame defined by two-dot chain lines. The second element placement region RB is a region overlapping with the transistor 210 in plan view. In other words, the plurality of second element heat dissipation vias 98 are provided in positions overlapping both the second element placement region RB and the intermediate wiring 61B (see FIG. 26 ) in plan view.

[0212] Some of the multiple second element heat dissipation vias 98 are arranged in positions different from the second element placement region RB. More specifically, some of the multiple second element heat dissipation vias 98 are provided closer to the second substrate side surface 23B (see FIG. 9 ) than the second element placement region RB in a planar view. Some of the multiple second element heat dissipation vias 98 are provided in positions adjacent to the second element placement region RB in the X direction in a planar view. Some of the multiple second element heat dissipation vias 98 are provided in positions overlapping with the intermediate wiring 61A in a planar view.

[0213] The multiple second-element heat dissipation vias 98 are arranged in rows spaced apart in the X direction, aligned in the Y direction. In the example shown in FIG. 28 , two rows of second-element heat dissipation vias 98 adjacent in the X direction are arranged at positions overlapping one source electrode 213 (see FIG. 13 ) of the transistor 210 in a plan view. As shown in FIG. 26 , the rows of second-element heat dissipation vias 98 are arranged at two different pitches P7 and P8. In one example, the pitch P7 is the pitch between two rows of second-element heat dissipation vias 98 that are arranged at positions overlapping the source electrode 213. The pitch P8 is the pitch between the row of second-element heat dissipation vias 98 that is arranged at a position different from the position overlapping the source electrode 213 and the row of second-element heat dissipation vias 98 that is arranged at a position overlapping the source electrode 213. The pitch P7 is smaller than the pitch P8. The arrangement pitch P7 is smaller than the arrangement pitch PT of the plurality of through vias 89. The arrangement pitch P7 may be equal to the arrangement pitch P1 (see FIG. 22 ) of the surface-side pad vias 90A. The arrangement pitch P8 is smaller than the arrangement pitch PT of the plurality of through vias 89. The arrangement pitch P8 is larger than the arrangement pitch P1 of the surface-side pad vias 90A. The second element heat dissipation via 98 may be made of one or more materials selected from the group including, for example, Cu, Al, Ti, TiN, Au, Ag, and W. In one example, the second element heat dissipation via 98 is made of a material including Cu.

[0214] As shown in FIG. 29 , each second element heat dissipation via 98 is disposed at a distance from both the front surface conductive layer 30 and the back surface conductive layer 70 in the Z direction. Each second element heat dissipation via 98 is connected to a plurality of intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D. More specifically, each second element heat dissipation via 98 is connected to a plurality of intermediate wirings 61A-61D. Each second element heat dissipation via 98 penetrates the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A-83C and the intermediate conductive layers 60B, 60C in the Z direction. The second element heat dissipation via 98 is provided, for example, on a side surface of the multilayer substrate 20 that constitutes a through hole that penetrates the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A-83C and the intermediate conductive layers 60B, 60C in the Z direction. The second element heat dissipation via 98 is, for example, cylindrical. In one example, the diameter of the second element heat dissipation via 98 in a plan view is smaller than the diameter of the through via 89 in a plan view. In one example, the diameter of the second element heat dissipation via 98 in plan view is equal to the diameter of the front surface side pad via 90A in plan view.

[0215] The second element heat dissipation vias 98 and the second element connecting vias 87 (see FIG. 28 ) are arranged spaced apart from each other in the Z direction. The second element heat dissipation vias 98 are arranged closer to the back surface conductive layer 70 than the second element connecting vias 87 in the Z direction. The second element heat dissipation vias 98 and the second element connecting vias 87 are connected to the intermediate conductive layer 60A. More specifically, the second element heat dissipation vias 98 and the second element connecting vias 87 are connected to the intermediate wiring 61A.

[0216] The thickness TT2 of the second element heat dissipation via 98 is thicker than the thickness of the second element connection via 87. The thickness TT2 may be equal to the thickness TS of the front-side pad via 90A (see FIG. 22). The thickness of the second element connection via 87 may be equal to the thickness TR of the back-side pad via 90B (see FIG. 22). The thickness of the second element connection via 87 may be equal to the thickness TC of the first element connection via 86 (see FIG. 27). The distance D5 between the second element heat dissipation via 98 and the substrate front surface 21 of the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction and the distance D6 between the second element heat dissipation via 98 and the substrate back surface 22 of the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction are equal to each other. The distance D5 may be equal to the distance D1 between the front-side pad via 90A and the substrate front surface 21 of the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction (see FIG. 22). The distance D6 may be equal to the distance D2 (see FIG. 22) between the front surface-side pad via 90A and the rear surface 22 of the multilayer substrate 20 in the Z direction.

[0217] (Heat Sink) As shown in FIG. 30 , the light-emitting device 10 includes a heat sink 400. The heat sink 400 is located on the substrate rear surface 22 side of the multilayer substrate 20. The heat sink 400 is attached to the multilayer substrate 20 through heat sink mounting holes 25 (see FIG. 18 ) using bolts (not shown). The heat sink 400 is indirectly connected to the rear surface conductive layer 70 (see FIG. 18 ). More specifically, the light-emitting device 10 includes an intermediate heat dissipation material 410 connected to the rear surface conductive layer 70 through an electrode opening 85A (see FIG. 18 ) in the rear surface insulating layer 85. The heat sink 400 is connected to the intermediate heat dissipation material 410. The intermediate heat dissipation material 410 may be, for example, a grease or gel-like heat dissipation material, or a heat dissipation sheet. In one example, the intermediate heat dissipation material 410 may be, for example, a TIM (Thermal Interface Material). The TIM may be, for example, a sheet-like material made of silicone resin or epoxy resin filled with a highly thermally conductive filler.

[0218] The heat sink 400 includes a base 401 connected to an intermediate heat dissipation material 410, and a plurality of heat dissipation fins 402 extending radially from the base 401. In one example, the base 401 and the plurality of heat dissipation fins 402 are integrated together. The heat sink 400 is made of a material including at least one of Al and Cu, for example.

[0219] The heat sink 400 is disposed at a position overlapping the light-emitting module 100, the drive circuit 200, the current limiting resistor 300, the protection diode 310, the auxiliary resistor 313, the first heat dissipation member 340, and the second heat dissipation member 350 (all see FIG. 1) in plan view. The heat sink 400 is disposed so as to overlap the pad heat dissipation via 90, the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 to 96 (all see FIG. 21), the first element heat dissipation via 97, and the second element heat dissipation via 98 (all see FIG. 26) in plan view.

[0220] 31 , heat from the light emitting module 100 is transferred to the heat sink 400 through the first element heat dissipation vias 97. Heat from the transistor 210 of the drive circuit 200 is transferred to the heat sink 400 through the second element heat dissipation vias 98.

[0221] 32 , heat from the current limiting resistor 300 is transferred to the heat sink 400 through the pad heat dissipation vias 90 and the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 (see FIG. 21 ). Although not shown, heat from the protection diode 310 is transferred to the heat sink 400 through the diode heat dissipation vias 92 and the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 95. Heat from the auxiliary resistor 313 is transferred to the heat sink 400 through the auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 and the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 96.

[0222] [Operation of First Embodiment] The operation of the light emitting device 10 of the first embodiment will be described. Fig. 33 is a graph showing the relationship between the heat transfer coefficient and the temperature of the light emitting element. The graph with triangles in Fig. 33 shows the relationship between the heat transfer coefficient and the temperature of the light emitting element 150 in the light emitting device 10 of the first embodiment. The graph with circles in Fig. 33 shows the relationship between the heat transfer coefficient and the temperature of the light emitting element in a light emitting device of a comparative example. Compared to the light emitting device 10 of the first embodiment, the light emitting device of the comparative example has a configuration in which the pad heat dissipation via 90, the first element heat dissipation via 97, and the second element heat dissipation via 98 are omitted.

[0223] In the light emitting device 10 of the first embodiment, heat from each of the current limiting resistor 300, the protection diode 310, and the auxiliary resistor 313 moves to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the pad heat dissipation via 90. Heat from the light emitting module 100 moves to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the first element heat dissipation via 97. Heat from the transistor 210 moves to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the second element heat dissipation via 98. This reduces the temperature of the light emitting module 100 and its surroundings, so that, as shown in FIG. 33 , the temperature of the light emitting element 150 in the light emitting device 10 of the first embodiment becomes lower than the temperature of the light emitting element in the light emitting device of the comparative example.

[0224] [Effects of First Embodiment] The light-emitting device 10 of the first embodiment has the following effects. (1-1) The light-emitting device 10 includes a multilayer substrate 20 including a substrate surface 21, a substrate back surface 22 opposite the substrate surface 21, a surface conductive layer 30 provided on the substrate surface 21, a back surface conductive layer 70 provided on the substrate back surface 22, and a first power supply through-hole 26 serving as a first power supply terminal electrically connected to the surface conductive layer 30; and a light-emitting element 150 electrically connected to the surface conductive layer 30. The surface conductive layer 30 includes a first power supply wiring 40 for supplying a drive current for driving the light-emitting element 150 from the first power supply through-hole 26 to the light-emitting element 150. The first power supply wiring 40 includes a plurality of pad regions 46 for mounting elements. The multilayer substrate 20 includes a pad heat dissipation via 90 provided within the multilayer substrate 20. The pad heat dissipation via 90 is provided at a position overlapping both the pad region 46 and the back surface conductive layer 70 in a plan view.

[0225] With this configuration, heat from the elements mounted on the multiple pad regions 46 can be easily transferred to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the pad heat dissipation vias 90. This makes it easier to lower the temperature of the elements, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0226] (1-2) The light emitting device 10 includes a current limiting resistor 300 that limits the current flowing through the first power supply wiring 40. The pad regions 46 include resistor pad regions 46A to 46C. The current limiting resistor 300 is mounted on the resistor pad regions 46A to 46C.

[0227] With this configuration, heat from the current limiting resistor 300 is more likely to move to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the pad heat dissipation vias 90 provided at positions that overlap the resistor pad regions 46A to 46C in a plan view. This makes it easier for the temperature of the current limiting resistor 300 to decrease, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0228] (1-3) The light emitting device 10 includes a protection diode 310 that protects the light emitting element 150. The pad regions 46 include a diode pad region 46D. The protection diode 310 is mounted on the diode pad region 46D.

[0229] According to this configuration, heat from the protection diode 310 is more likely to move to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the pad heat dissipation via 90 provided at a position overlapping the diode pad region 46D in a plan view. This makes it easier for the temperature of the protection diode 310 to decrease, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0230] (1-4) The pad heat dissipation via 90 includes a front-side pad via 90A arranged closer to the back surface conductive layer 70 than the first power supply wiring 40 in the Z direction and spaced apart, and a back-side pad via 90B provided closer to the back surface conductive layer 70 than the front-side pad via 90A in the Z direction and connected to the back surface conductive layer 70. The front-side pad via 90A and the back-side pad via 90B are provided separately. The number of back-side pad vias 90B is greater than the number of front-side pad vias 90A.

[0231] This configuration allows heat from the elements mounted on the multiple pad regions 46 to more easily move to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the pad heat dissipation vias 90. This makes it easier for the temperature of the elements to decrease, thereby further improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0232] (1-5) The multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of intermediate conductive layers 60A to 60D spaced apart from one another in the Z direction. The front-side pad via 90A is connected to the plurality of intermediate conductive layers 60A to 60D.

[0233] With this configuration, heat transferred from the element to the front-side pad via 90A moves to the intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D and then to the back-side conductive layer 70. This increases the heat dissipation capacity within the multilayer substrate 20, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light-emitting device 10.

[0234] (1-6) The multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of substrate insulating layers 80. The plurality of substrate insulating layers 80 include intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A-83C provided with intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D, and a front surface-side substrate insulating layer 81 provided with a surface conductive layer 30. The thickness of the front surface-side substrate insulating layer 81 is thinner than the thickness of the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A-83C.

[0235] With this configuration, heat from elements mounted in the multiple pad regions 46 is more likely to move to the front-side pad vias 90A. Therefore, heat from the elements is more likely to move to the back-surface conductive layer 70 through the front-side pad vias 90A, improving the heat dissipation performance of the light-emitting device 10. In addition, the length of the loop-shaped path of the drive current flowing between the drive circuit 200 and the light-emitting module 100 through the intermediate wiring 61A can be shortened. Therefore, the inductance caused by the length of this path can be reduced.

[0236] (1-7) The thickness of the front-side substrate insulating layer 81 is 0.1 mm or less. With this configuration, the front-side substrate insulating layer 81 is thin, at 0.1 mm or less, so that heat from the elements mounted in the multiple pad regions 46 is easily transferred to the front-side pad vias 90A. This makes it easier for heat from the elements to transfer to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the front-side pad vias 90A, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light-emitting device 10. In addition, the length of the loop-shaped path of the drive current flowing between the drive circuit 200 and the light-emitting module 100 through the intermediate wiring 61A can be further shortened. This further reduces the inductance caused by the length of this path.

[0237] (1-8) The distance D1 in the Z direction between the front-side pad via 90A and the substrate front surface 21 is equal to the distance D2 in the Z direction between the front-side pad via 90A and the substrate back surface 22. This configuration can prevent warping of the multilayer substrate 20 due to the front-side pad via 90A.

[0238] (1-9) The multilayer substrate 20 includes a first element heat dissipation via 97 provided within the multilayer substrate 20. The first element heat dissipation via 97 is provided at a position overlapping both the first element placement area RA in which the light emitting module 100 including the light emitting element 150 is placed and the back surface conductive layer 70 in plan view.

[0239] According to this configuration, heat from the light emitting element 150 is more likely to move to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the first element heat dissipation via 97. This makes it easier for the temperature of the light emitting element 150 to decrease, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0240] (1-10) The multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of intermediate conductive layers 60A to 60D spaced apart from one another in the Z direction. The first element heat dissipation via 97 is connected to the plurality of intermediate conductive layers 60A to 60D.

[0241] With this configuration, heat transferred from the light emitting element 150 to the first element heat dissipation via 97 moves to the intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D and then to the back surface conductive layer 70. This increases the heat dissipation capacity within the multilayer substrate 20, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0242] (1-11) The multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of substrate insulating layers 80. The plurality of substrate insulating layers 80 include intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A-83C provided with intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D, and a back surface side substrate insulating layer 82 provided with a back surface conductive layer 70. The thickness of the back surface side substrate insulating layer 82 is thinner than the thickness of the intermediate substrate insulating layers 83A-83C.

[0243] According to this configuration, heat transferred from the light emitting element 150 to the first element heat dissipation via 97 is more likely to move to the back surface conductive layer 70. Therefore, heat from the light emitting element 150 is more likely to move to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the first element heat dissipation via 97, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0244] (1-12) The thickness of the back surface side substrate insulating layer 82 is 0.1 mm or less. With this configuration, the thickness of the back surface side substrate insulating layer 82 is as thin as 0.1 mm or less, so that heat from the first element heat dissipation via 97 can be easily transferred to the back surface conductive layer 70. Therefore, heat from the light emitting element 150 can be easily transferred to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the first element heat dissipation via 97, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0245] (1-13) The distance D3 in the Z direction between the first element heat dissipation via 97 and the substrate front surface 21 is equal to the distance D4 in the Z direction between the first element heat dissipation via 97 and the substrate back surface 22. This configuration can prevent warping of the multilayer substrate 20 due to the first element heat dissipation via 97.

[0246] (1-14) The front surface conductive layer 30 includes a third power supply wiring 50 electrically connected to the back surface conductive layer 70. The light emitting device 10 includes a first heat dissipation member 340 connected to the first power supply wiring 40 and the third power supply wiring 50. The first heat dissipation member 340 is arranged adjacent to a plurality of pad regions 46 in a plan view.

[0247] According to this configuration, heat from an element (e.g., the current limiting resistor 300) mounted on the pad region 46 moves to the first heat dissipation member 340. Then, the heat from the first heat dissipation member 340 moves to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the third power wiring 50. This makes it easier to lower the temperature of the element, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0248] (1-15) The first heat dissipation member 340 is configured to have a thermal conductivity of 100 W / m / K or more. This configuration makes it easier for heat from an element (e.g., the current-limiting resistor 300) mounted on the pad region 46 to move to the first heat dissipation member 340. This makes it easier for the temperature of the element to decrease, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0249] (1-16) The front surface conductive layer 30 includes a second power supply wiring 47 through which a drive current flows from the light emitting element 150, and a third power supply wiring 50 electrically connected to the back surface conductive layer 70. The light emitting device 10 includes a second heat dissipation member 350 connected to the second power supply wiring 47 and the third power supply wiring 50. The second heat dissipation member 350 is disposed adjacent to the light emitting element 150.

[0250] According to this configuration, heat from the light emitting element 150 moves to the second heat dissipation member 350. Then, heat from the first heat dissipation member 340 moves to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the third power wiring 50. This makes it easier for the temperature of the light emitting element 150 to decrease, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0251] (1-17) The second heat dissipation member 350 is configured to have a thermal conductivity of 100 W / m / K or more. This configuration makes it easier for heat from the light emitting element 150 to move to the second heat dissipation member 350. This makes it easier for the temperature of the light emitting element 150 to decrease, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0252] (1-18) The multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of substrate insulating layers 80. The plurality of substrate insulating layers 80 includes a back-side substrate insulating layer 82 on which a back-side conductive layer 70 is provided. The plurality of intermediate wirings 61A to 61D includes an intermediate wiring 61D as a back-side intermediate wiring that contacts the surface of the back-side substrate insulating layer 82 opposite to the surface on which the back-side conductive layer 70 is provided. In a plan view, the area of ​​the intermediate wiring 61D is set to be 10% or less of the output capacitance of the transistor 210.

[0253] This configuration can reduce the parasitic capacitance between the intermediate wiring 61D and the back surface conductive layer 70. Therefore, adverse effects such as switching delays on the switching operation of the transistor 210 can be suppressed.

[0254] (1-19) The multilayer substrate 20 includes a second element heat dissipation via 98 provided within the multilayer substrate 20. The second element heat dissipation via 98 is provided at a position overlapping both the transistor 210 and the back surface conductive layer 70 in plan view.

[0255] According to this configuration, heat from the transistor 210 is more likely to move to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the second element heat dissipation via 98. This makes it easier for the temperature of the transistor 210 to decrease, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0256] (1-20) The multilayer substrate 20 includes a plurality of intermediate conductive layers 60A to 60D spaced apart from one another in the Z direction. The second element heat dissipation via 98 is connected to the plurality of intermediate conductive layers 60A to 60D.

[0257] With this configuration, heat transferred from the transistor 210 to the second element heat dissipation via 98 moves to the intermediate conductive layers 60A-60D and then to the back surface conductive layer 70. This increases the heat dissipation capacity within the multilayer substrate 20, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0258] (1-21) The distance D5 between the second element heat dissipation via 98 and the substrate front surface 21 in the Z direction is equal to the distance D6 between the second element heat dissipation via 98 and the substrate back surface 22 in the Z direction. This configuration can prevent warping of the multilayer substrate 20 due to the second element heat dissipation via 98.

[0259] (1-22) In plan view, the light emitting element 150, the transistor 210, and the capacitor 220 are arranged spaced apart from each other in the Y direction. The capacitor 220 is arranged between the light emitting element 150 and the transistor 210.

[0260] This configuration shortens the loop path of the drive current flowing through the light emitting element 150, the transistor 210, and the capacitor 220. This reduces the inductance caused by the length of this path.

[0261] (1-23) The drive circuit 200 includes a plurality of capacitors 220. The plurality of capacitors 220 are arranged in the X direction. This configuration can reduce the resistance and inductance in the loop path of the drive current flowing through the light-emitting element 150, the transistor 210, and the capacitor 220.

[0262] (1-24) The transistor 210 includes a lateral transistor. With this configuration, the transistor 210 can be flip-chip mounted on the surface conductive layer 30. This eliminates the need for wires to connect the surface conductive layer 30 and the transistor 210, thereby eliminating the inductance caused by the wires. This allows for a low inductance in the loop path of the drive current flowing through the light-emitting element 150, the transistor 210, and the capacitor 220.

[0263] (1-25) A plurality of current limiting resistors 300 are provided corresponding to the plurality of resistor pad regions 46A to 46C. The plurality of current limiting resistors 300 are connected in series. With this configuration, it is possible to reduce heat from the current limiting resistor 300 that is closest to the light emitting element 150 among the plurality of current limiting resistors 300. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the thermal effect on the light emitting element 150 caused by the current limiting resistor 300.

[0264] (1-26) The multilayer substrate 20 includes a back-side insulating layer 85 that is provided on the substrate back surface 22 and covers the back-side conductive layer 70. The back-side insulating layer 85 includes an electrode opening 85A that exposes the back-side conductive layer 70. The light-emitting device 10 includes an intermediate heat dissipation material 410 that is connected to the back-side conductive layer 70 through the electrode opening 85A, and a heat sink 400 that serves as a heat dissipation body that is connected to the intermediate heat dissipation material 410.

[0265] According to this configuration, heat from the elements mounted on the front surface conductive layer 30 is transferred to the heat sink 400 through the back surface conductive layer 70 and the intermediate heat dissipation material 410. This makes it easier to lower the temperature of the elements, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light emitting device 10.

[0266] 34 and 35 , a light emitting device 10 according to a second embodiment will be described. The light emitting device 10 according to the second embodiment differs from the light emitting device 10 according to the first embodiment mainly in the configuration of the third power supply wiring 50 of the surface conductive layer 30. In the following, components common to the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and descriptions thereof will be omitted.

[0267] Fig. 34 shows a schematic enlarged planar structure of the light emitting module 100, the drive circuit 200, and the surrounding area in the light emitting device 10 of the second embodiment. Fig. 35 shows a schematic circuit configuration of the light emitting device 10 of the second embodiment.

[0268] 34 , in the second embodiment, the third power supply wiring 50 includes a drive wiring section 501, a first heat dissipation wiring section 502, and a second heat dissipation wiring section 503. The drive wiring section 501 is disposed adjacent to the first power supply wiring 40 in the Y direction. More specifically, the drive wiring section 501 is disposed adjacent to the second portion 44B of the fourth wiring section 44 of the first power supply wiring 40 in the Y direction. The drive wiring section 501 is provided with a plurality of capacitor pad regions 51A. The plurality of capacitors 220 of the drive circuit 200 are disposed so as to straddle the first power supply wiring 40 and the drive wiring section 501 in the Y direction.

[0269] The first heat dissipation wiring section 502 is provided at a position adjacent to the drive wiring section 501 in the X direction. The first heat dissipation wiring section 502 is arranged closer to the first substrate side surface 23A than the drive wiring section 501. The first heat dissipation wiring section 502 is a region of the third power supply wiring 50 in which a plurality of second heat dissipation members 350 are arranged. The first heat dissipation wiring section 502 is provided with a heat dissipation member pad region 51C corresponding to the second heat dissipation members 350.

[0270] The second heat dissipation wiring portion 503 is provided adjacent to the drive wiring portion 501 in the X direction. The second heat dissipation wiring portion 503 is disposed closer to the second substrate side surface 23B (see FIG. 9 ) than the drive wiring portion 501. In other words, the second heat dissipation wiring portion 503 is provided on the opposite side of the drive wiring portion 501 from the first heat dissipation wiring portion 502. The second heat dissipation wiring portion 503 includes a portion between the drive wiring portion 501 and the first portion 44A of the fourth wiring portion 44 of the first power supply wiring 40 in the X direction. The second heat dissipation wiring portion 503 includes a region of the third power supply wiring 50 where the first heat dissipation member 340 is disposed. The second heat dissipation wiring portion 503 is provided with a heat dissipation member pad region 51C corresponding to the first heat dissipation member 340.

[0271] The multilayer substrate 20 includes a first isolation region 510 that separates the drive wiring section 501 from the first heat dissipation wiring section 502 , and a second isolation region 520 that separates the drive wiring section 501 from the second heat dissipation wiring section 503 .

[0272] The first isolation region 510 is provided in a position adjacent to the capacitor 220 of the drive circuit 200 in the X direction. More specifically, the first isolation region 510 is provided closer to the first substrate side surface 23A than the capacitor 220 closest to the first substrate side surface 23A (see FIG. 9 ) among the multiple capacitors 220, and in a position adjacent to the capacitor 220 in the X direction. The first isolation region 510 can also be said to be provided between the capacitor 220 and the second heat dissipation member 350 in the X direction. The first isolation region 510 is provided so as to communicate with the first gate slit 53A. The first isolation region 510 extends along the Y direction in a plan view.

[0273] The first isolation region 510 prevents current from flowing directly from the drive wiring section 501 to the first heat dissipation wiring section 502. More specifically, the first isolation region 510 separates the drive wiring section 501 and the first heat dissipation wiring section 502. Therefore, when the transistor 210 is turned on, the current that flows to drive the light-emitting module 100 through the transistor 210 is less likely to flow to the first heat dissipation wiring section 502. The output terminal of the gate driver 230 that drives the transistor 210 is electrically connected to the gate electrode 215 of the transistor 210 by the first gate wiring 56. The source electrode 213 of the transistor 210 is electrically connected to the drive wiring section 501 of the third power supply wiring 50. Therefore, the first gate wiring 56 and the portion 501A of the drive wiring section 501 on the opposite side of the first gate wiring 56 from the first isolation region 510 form a ground path R1 connecting the source electrode 213 of the transistor 210 and the ground terminal of the gate driver 230.

[0274] The current that flows from the first gate wiring 56 to the gate electrode 215 of the transistor 210 flows from the source electrode 213 of the transistor 210 to the gate driver 230 through a path (ground path R1) that electrically connects the drive wiring unit 501 and the gate driver 230. The current for driving the light-emitting module 100 does not flow to the first heat dissipation wiring unit 502 due to the first isolation region 510. As a result, the signal path for the gate signal between the gate driver 230 and the transistor 210 is less susceptible to the influence of the drive current that drives the light-emitting module 100.

[0275] Furthermore, the drive wiring section 501 is separated from the first heat dissipation wiring section 502 by the first isolation region 510. Therefore, when the transistor 210 is turned on, the current flowing through the transistor 210 tends to flow from the transistor 210 toward the capacitor 220. This makes it possible to suppress a current drop in the current loop for the drive current including the light-emitting module 100. As a result, it is possible to increase the current flowing to drive the light-emitting module 100. This increase in current leads to an increase in the amount of light in the light-emitting module 100, which can reduce the pulse width of the emitted laser light.

[0276] The second isolation region 520 is provided on the opposite side of the capacitor 220 from the first isolation region 510 in the X direction. The second isolation region 520 is provided so as to surround the transistor 210 in a plan view. The second isolation region 520 includes a first isolation portion 521, a second isolation portion 522, a third isolation portion 523, and a fourth isolation portion 524.

[0277] The first separation portion 521 is provided in a position adjacent to the capacitor 220 in the X direction. More specifically, the first separation portion 521 is provided closer to the second substrate side surface 23B than the capacitor 220 closest to the second substrate side surface 23B among the multiple capacitors 220, and in a position adjacent to the capacitor 220 in the X direction. It can also be said that the first separation portion 521 is provided between the capacitor 220 and the first heat dissipation member 340 in the X direction. The first separation portion 521 extends along the Y direction in a plan view. The first separation portion 521 is provided closer to the second portion 44B of the fourth wiring portion 44 than the transistor 210 in the Y direction.

[0278] The second isolation portion 522 is provided at a position adjacent to the transistor 210 in the X direction. The second isolation portion 522 is provided closer to the second substrate side surface 23B than the transistor 210. The second isolation portion 522 extends along the Y direction in a plan view. The second isolation portion 522 extends closer to the fourth substrate side surface 23D (see FIG. 9 ) than the transistor 210.

[0279] The third isolation portion 523 connects the first isolation portion 521 and the second isolation portion 522. The third isolation portion 523 is provided between the first isolation portion 521 and the second isolation portion 522 in the X direction. The third isolation portion 523 extends in the X direction in a plan view. The third isolation portion 523 is provided at the same position as the end of the transistor 210 that is closer to the capacitor 220 in the Y direction.

[0280] The fourth isolation portion 524 is provided closer to the fourth substrate side surface 23D than the transistor 210 in the Y direction. The fourth isolation portion 524 is provided closer to the fourth substrate side surface 23D than the drain wiring 55 and the drain opening 52. The fourth isolation portion 524 is provided between the gate driver 230 and the transistor 210 in the Y direction. More specifically, the fourth isolation portion 524 is provided closer to the gate driver 230 than the transistor 210 in the Y direction.

[0281] The fourth isolation portion 524 extends from the second isolation portion 522 toward the gate driver 230. The fourth isolation portion 524 extends across the entire transistor 210 in the X direction. In the second embodiment, the fourth isolation portion 524 extends slightly closer to the first substrate side surface 23A than the transistor 210 in the X direction. Furthermore, the fourth isolation portion 524 is provided closer to the second substrate side surface 23B than the control power supply wiring 63A in plan view.

[0282] The second isolation region 520 prevents a current from flowing directly from the drive wiring unit 501 to the second heat dissipation wiring unit 503. More specifically, because the drive wiring unit 501 and the second heat dissipation wiring unit 503 are separated by the second isolation region 520, the drive wiring unit 501 and the second heat dissipation wiring unit 503 are electrically connected through a connection portion of the third power supply wiring 50 that is closer to the fourth substrate side surface 23D than the second isolation region 520 and closer to the second substrate side surface 23B than the gate driver 230. In other words, the source electrode 213 of the transistor 210 is electrically connected to the ground terminal of the gate driver 230 through a portion 501A between the fourth isolation region 524 and the first gate slit 53A that separates the first gate wiring 56. In other words, the drive signal loop formed by the output terminal of the gate driver 230, the gate electrode 215 of the transistor 210, the source electrode 213 of the transistor 210, and the ground terminal of the gate driver 230 is less susceptible to the influence of the drive current loop that flows when the transistor 210 is turned on, i.e., the loop formed by the first electrode 221 of the capacitor 220, the light-emitting module 100, the drain electrode 214 of the transistor 210, the source electrode 213 of the transistor 210, and the second electrode 222 of the capacitor 220. This makes it possible to suppress the influence of fluctuations in the gate-source voltage of the transistor 210. Therefore, it is possible to suppress fluctuations in the light output of the light-emitting element 150.

[0283] Furthermore, the drive wiring section 501 is separated from the second heat dissipation wiring section 503 by the second isolation region 520. Therefore, when the transistor 210 is turned on, the current flowing through the transistor 210 tends to flow from the transistor 210 toward the capacitor 220. This makes it possible to suppress a current drop in the current loop for the drive current including the light-emitting module 100. As a result, it is possible to increase the current flowing to drive the light-emitting module 100. This increase in current leads to an increase in the amount of light in the light-emitting module 100, which can reduce the pulse width of the emitted laser light.

[0284] As shown in FIG. 35 , by providing the third power supply wiring 50 with a first isolation region 510 and a second isolation region 520 (both see FIG. 34 ), the path electrically connecting the source of the transistor 210 and ground is separated into two ground paths R1 and R2. The ground path R1 is a path that includes the drive wiring unit 501 (see FIG. 34 ). The ground path R1 is a path that connects the source of the transistor 210 and the gate driver 230. In other words, the ground path R1 is a path that electrically connects the drive wiring unit 501 and the gate driver 230. The ground path R2 forms part of the path through which the drive current flows through the transistor 210 and the light-emitting module 100 shown in FIG. 35 . In other words, the ground path R2 does not include the portion 501A of the drive wiring section 501 between the fourth separation section 524 and the first gate slit 53A that separates the first gate wiring 56, nor the first heat dissipation wiring section 502 and the second heat dissipation wiring section 503 (both see Figure 34).

[0285] [Effects of Second Embodiment] The light-emitting device 10 of the second embodiment provides the following effects. (2-1) The light-emitting device 10 includes a multilayer substrate 20 including a substrate surface 21, a substrate back surface 22 opposite the substrate surface 21, a surface conductive layer 30 provided on the substrate surface 21, a back surface conductive layer 70 provided on the substrate back surface 22, and a first power supply through-hole 26 serving as a first power supply terminal electrically connected to the surface conductive layer 30; a light-emitting element 150 electrically connected to the surface conductive layer 30; a transistor 210 and a capacitor 220 connected to the surface conductive layer 30 and driving the light-emitting element 150; and a gate driver 230 controlling the transistor 210. The light-emitting element 150, the transistor 210, and the capacitor 220 are arranged in the Y direction in a plan view. The capacitor 220 is disposed between the light-emitting element 150 and the transistor 210 in the Y direction. The gate driver 230 is disposed apart from the transistor 210 in the X direction in a plan view and on the opposite side of the capacitor 220 from the transistor 210 in the Y direction. The front surface conductive layer 30 includes a first power supply wiring 40 and a second power supply wiring 47 on which the light emitting element 150 is mounted, a third power supply wiring 50 electrically connected to the back surface conductive layer 70, and a first gate wiring 56 electrically connecting the gate of the transistor 210 to the gate driver 230. The third power supply wiring 50 includes a drive wiring section 501 adjacent to the first power supply wiring 40 in the Y direction and a first heat dissipation wiring section 502 adjacent to the drive wiring section 501 in the X direction. The capacitor 220 is disposed so as to straddle the first power supply wiring 40 and the drive wiring section 501 in the Y direction. The multilayer substrate 20 includes a first isolation region 510 that separates the drive wiring section 501 and the first heat dissipation wiring section 502, and a first gate slit 53A that separates the first gate wiring 56 and the third power supply wiring 50. The first isolation region 510 is provided adjacent to the capacitor 220 in the X direction and communicates with the first gate slit 53A.

[0286] According to this configuration, the drive wiring section 501 and the first heat dissipation wiring section 502 are separated by the first isolation region 510, so that the drive current supplied to the light-emitting module 100 can be prevented from flowing into the first heat dissipation wiring section 502. This allows the path of the current flowing from the first gate wiring 56 to the gate of the transistor 210 to be separated. This prevents a decrease in the gate-source voltage when the transistor 210 is turned on, thereby improving the optical output of the light-emitting element 150. This also reduces the pulse width of the laser light emitted from the light-emitting module 100.

[0287] (2-2) The third power supply wiring 50 includes a second heat dissipation wiring section 503 provided on the opposite side of the drive wiring section 501 from the first heat dissipation wiring section 502. The multilayer substrate 20 includes a second isolation region 520 provided on the opposite side of the capacitor 220 in the Y direction from the first isolation region 510. The second isolation region 520 separates the drive wiring section 501 and the second heat dissipation wiring section 503. The second isolation region 520 is provided to surround the transistor 210 in a plan view.

[0288] According to this configuration, the drive wiring section 501 and the second heat dissipation wiring section 503 are separated by the second isolation region 520, so that the drive current supplied to the light-emitting module 100 can be prevented from flowing into the second heat dissipation wiring section 503. This allows the path of the current flowing from the first gate wiring 56 to the gate of the transistor 210 to be separated. Therefore, the decrease in the gate-source voltage when the transistor 210 is turned on can be suppressed, thereby improving the optical output of the light-emitting element 150. This can also reduce the pulse width of the laser light emitted from the light-emitting module 100.

[0289] <Modifications> The above-described embodiments can be modified as follows: Furthermore, the above-described embodiments and the following modifications can be combined with each other to the extent that no technical contradiction occurs.

[0290] In each embodiment, as shown in FIG. 36 , the cylindrical pad heat dissipation via 90 may be filled with an insulating member 600. The insulating member 600 may be made of a material (heat dissipation material) with excellent heat dissipation performance, such as AlN or BeO. This makes it easier for heat from the current limiting resistor 300 (see FIG. 12 ) to move to the heat sink 400 through the pad heat dissipation via 90. This makes it easier for the current limiting resistor 300 to dissipate heat via the heat sink 400. This reduces the temperature of the current limiting resistor 300. The insulating member 600 may be made of a resin material, such as epoxy resin. The inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 to 96 can also be similarly modified.

[0291] In each embodiment, the pad heat dissipation vias 90 may be provided in a columnar shape, as shown in FIG. 37 . In one example, the pad heat dissipation vias 90 are cylindrical. This makes it easier for heat from the current limiting resistor 300 (see FIG. 12 ) to move to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the pad heat dissipation vias 90. This makes it easier for the current limiting resistor 300 to dissipate heat by the heat sink 400. This makes it possible to lower the temperature of the current limiting resistor 300. Note that the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 to 96 can also be similarly modified.

[0292] In each embodiment, as shown in FIG. 38 , the cylindrical first element heat dissipation via 97 may be filled with an insulating member 600. The insulating member 600 may be made of a material (heat dissipation material) with excellent heat dissipation performance, such as AlN or BeO. This makes it easier for heat from the light-emitting module 100 to move to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the first element heat dissipation via 97. This makes it easier for the light-emitting module 100 (see FIG. 13 ) to dissipate heat using the heat sink 400. This allows the temperature of the light-emitting module 100 to be reduced. The insulating member 600 may be made of a resin material, such as epoxy resin. The second element heat dissipation via 98 can also be modified in a similar manner.

[0293] In each embodiment, as shown in FIG. 39 , a cylindrical first element heat dissipation via 97 may be filled with a conductive material. The conductive material may be the same material as that constituting the first element heat dissipation via 97. In one example, the first element heat dissipation via 97 is cylindrical. This makes it easier for heat from the light emitting module 100 (see FIG. 13 ) to move to the back surface conductive layer 70 through the first element heat dissipation via 97. This makes it easier for the light emitting module 100 to dissipate heat using the heat sink 400. This allows the temperature of the light emitting module 100 to be reduced. Note that the second element heat dissipation via 98 can also be modified in a similar manner.

[0294] In each embodiment, the resistor heat dissipation via 91 may be provided across the entirety of each of the resistor pad regions 46A to 46C in plan view. In other words, the resistor heat dissipation via 91 may be provided at a position that protrudes from the current limiting resistor 300 in the Y direction in plan view.

[0295] In each embodiment, the resistor heat dissipation vias 91 may be provided in regions of different sizes relative to the resistor pad regions 46A to 46C. That is, the number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 provided at positions overlapping the resistor pad regions 46A to 46C in a plan view may differ from one another. For example, the number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 provided at positions overlapping the resistor pad region 46A in a plan view may be greater than the number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 provided at positions overlapping the resistor pad region 46B in a plan view. For example, the number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 provided at positions overlapping the resistor pad region 46A in a plan view may be greater than the number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 provided at positions overlapping the resistor pad region 46C in a plan view. For example, the number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 provided at positions overlapping the resistor pad region 46B in a plan view may be greater than the number of resistor heat dissipation vias 91 provided at positions overlapping the resistor pad region 46C in a plan view.

[0296] In each embodiment, the sizes of the resistor heat dissipation vias 91 provided at positions overlapping the resistor pad regions 46A to 46C in a plan view may be different from one another. For example, the size (diameter) in a plan view of the resistor heat dissipation via 91 provided at a position overlapping the resistor pad region 46A in a plan view may be larger than the size (diameter) in a plan view of the resistor heat dissipation via 91 provided at a position overlapping the resistor pad region 46B in a plan view. For example, the size (diameter) in a plan view of the resistor heat dissipation via 91 provided at a position overlapping the resistor pad region 46B in a plan view may be larger than the size (diameter) in a plan view of the resistor heat dissipation via 91 provided at a position overlapping the resistor pad region 46C in a plan view.

[0297] In each embodiment, the diode heat dissipation vias 92 may be provided in regions of different sizes relative to the diode pad regions 46D and 49C. That is, the number of diode heat dissipation vias 92 provided at positions overlapping the diode pad region 46D in plan view may be different from the number of diode heat dissipation vias 92 provided at positions overlapping the diode pad region 49C.

[0298] In each embodiment, the size (diameter) in a planar view of the diode heat dissipation via 92 provided at a position overlapping the diode pad region 46D in a planar view may be different from the size (diameter) in a planar view of the diode heat dissipation via 92 provided at a position overlapping the diode pad region 49C in a planar view.

[0299] In each embodiment, the auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 may be provided in areas of different sizes relative to the two auxiliary resistor pad areas 46 E. That is, the number of auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 provided at positions overlapping the auxiliary resistor pad areas 46 E of the fourth wiring part 44 in plan view may be different from the number of auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 provided at positions overlapping the auxiliary resistor pad areas 46 E of the fifth wiring part 45.

[0300] - In each embodiment, the size (diameter) in a planar view of the auxiliary resistor heat dissipation via 93 provided at a position overlapping with the auxiliary resistor pad region 46E of the fourth wiring part 44 in a planar view may be different from the size (diameter) in a planar view of the auxiliary resistor heat dissipation via 93 provided at a position overlapping with the auxiliary resistor pad region 46E of the fifth wiring part 45 in a planar view.

[0301] In each embodiment, it is possible to omit at least one of the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 to 96. In each embodiment, the area where the pad heat dissipation vias 90 are provided can be changed as desired.

[0302] In one example, the diode heat dissipation via 92 may be omitted from the pad heat dissipation via 90. In this case, the diode heat dissipation via 99 provided in the second power supply wiring 47 at a position overlapping the diode pad region 49C in plan view may also be omitted. In another example, the inter-pad heat dissipation via 95 provided between the diode heat dissipation via 92 and the diode heat dissipation via 99 in the X direction may also be omitted.

[0303] In one example, the auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 may be omitted from the pad heat dissipation vias 90. In one example, the auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 provided at positions overlapping the auxiliary resistor pad regions 46E of the fifth wiring portion 45 in a planar view may be omitted. In one example, the auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 provided at positions overlapping the auxiliary resistor pad regions 46E of the fourth wiring portion 44 in a planar view may be omitted. In one example, both the auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 provided at positions overlapping the auxiliary resistor pad regions 46E of the fifth wiring portion 45 in a planar view and the auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 provided at positions overlapping the auxiliary resistor pad regions 46E of the fourth wiring portion 44 in a planar view may be omitted. In another example, the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 96 provided between these auxiliary resistor heat dissipation vias 93 in the Y direction may also be omitted.

[0304] In one example, the resistor heat dissipation vias 91 may be omitted from the pad heat dissipation vias 90. In one example, the resistor heat dissipation vias 91 may be omitted at positions overlapping with the resistor pad regions 46A in a planar view. In one example, the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 may be omitted between the two resistor pad regions 46A in the Y direction. In one example, the resistor heat dissipation vias 91 may be omitted at positions overlapping with the resistor pad regions 46B in a planar view. In one example, the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 may be omitted between the two resistor pad regions 46B in the Y direction. In one example, the resistor heat dissipation vias 91 may be omitted at positions overlapping with the resistor pad region 46C in a planar view. In one example, the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 may be omitted between the two resistor pad regions 46C in the Y direction.

[0305] In one example, the pad heat dissipation via 90 may be provided at a position overlapping the first heat dissipation member 340 in a plan view. In other words, the pad heat dissipation via 90 may be provided at a position overlapping the heat dissipation member pad region 46J of the first power supply wiring 40 in a plan view.

[0306] In each embodiment, as shown in FIG. 40 , the auxiliary resistor 313 may be omitted. In this case, the protection diode 310 is disposed so as to straddle the fourth wiring portion 44 of the first power supply wiring 40 and the narrow portion 48A of the second power supply wiring 47 in the Y direction. A diode pad region 46D is provided in the fourth wiring portion 44, and a diode pad region 49C is provided in the narrow portion 48A. The anode electrode 311 of the protection diode 310 is mounted in the diode pad region 49C, and the cathode electrode 312 is mounted in the diode pad region 46D. As a result, the anode electrode 311 of the protection diode 310 is electrically connected to the second power supply wiring 47, and the cathode electrode 312 is electrically connected to the first power supply wiring 40. When the auxiliary resistor 313 is omitted, a diode having a forward voltage Vf higher than that of the protection diode 310 in each embodiment is used as the protection diode 310. In the modification shown in FIG. 40, the fifth wiring portion 45 may be omitted from the first power supply wiring 40.

[0307] As shown in FIG. 41 , the ground wiring 62A of the intermediate conductive layer 60A is provided with a diode heat dissipation via 92 and an inter-pad heat dissipation via 95. The diode heat dissipation via 92 is provided in a position overlapping the diode pad region 46D (see FIG. 40 ) in a plan view. The inter-pad heat dissipation via 95 is provided in a region between the diode pad region 46D and the diode pad region 49C in the Y direction. The diode heat dissipation via 99 is provided in a position overlapping the diode pad region 49C (see FIG. 40 ) in a plan view. In this manner, the diode heat dissipation vias 92, 99 and the inter-pad heat dissipation via 95 are provided in a region overlapping the protection diode 310 in a plan view. Note that the configurations of the diode heat dissipation vias 92, 99 and the inter-pad heat dissipation via 95 are the same as the configurations of the diode heat dissipation vias 92, 99 and the inter-pad heat dissipation via 95 in the above-described embodiments.

[0308] In each embodiment, the relationship between the arrangement pitch P1 of the front-side pad vias 90A and the arrangement pitch P2 of the back-side pad vias 90B of the pad heat dissipation vias 90 can be changed arbitrarily. In one example, as shown in FIG. 42 , the arrangement pitch P1 may be smaller than the arrangement pitch P2. Although not shown, the arrangement pitch P1 and the arrangement pitch P2 may be equal to each other. In one example, the number of front-side pad vias 90A may be equal to the number of back-side pad vias 90B, or the number of front-side pad vias 90A may be smaller than the number of back-side pad vias 90B. In another example, the arrangement pitch P1 may be equal to the arrangement pitch PT (see FIG. 13 ) of the through vias 89. In one example, the arrangement pitch P1 may be larger than the arrangement pitch PT. In one example, the arrangement pitch P2 may be equal to the arrangement pitch PT. In one example, the arrangement pitch P2 may be larger than the arrangement pitch PT. The same can be applied to the inter-pad heat dissipation vias 94 to 96.

[0309] In each embodiment, the first element heat dissipation via 97 is provided at a position overlapping both the first element arrangement area RA in which the light emitting module 100 is arranged and the back surface conductive layer 70 in plan view, but this is not limited to this. In one example, the first element heat dissipation via 97 may be provided at a position overlapping both the area in which the light emitting element 150 is arranged and the back surface conductive layer 70 in plan view. In another example, the first element heat dissipation via 97 may be provided throughout the entire first element arrangement area RA.

[0310] In each embodiment, the relationship between the arrangement pitch P3 of the first element heat dissipation vias 97 and the arrangement pitches P4, P5 of the first element connection vias 86 can be changed as desired. In one example, as shown in FIG. 43 , the multiple first element connection vias 86 may be arranged at an arrangement pitch P9 instead of the arrangement pitches P4, P5. That is, the multiple first element connection vias 86 may be arranged at the same arrangement pitch. In this case, the arrangement pitch P9 may be larger than the arrangement pitch P3. Although not shown, the arrangement pitch P9 and the arrangement pitch P3 may be equal to each other. In one example, the number of first element heat dissipation vias 97 may be equal to the number of first element connection vias 86, or the number of first element heat dissipation vias 97 may be smaller than the number of first element connection vias 86. In another example, the arrangement pitch P3 may be equal to the arrangement pitch PT of the through vias 89 (see FIG. 13 ). In one example, the arrangement pitch P3 may be larger than the arrangement pitch PT. In one example, the arrangement pitch P9 may be equal to the arrangement pitch PT. In one example, the arrangement pitch P9 may be larger than the arrangement pitch PT. The relationship between the arrangement pitch of the second element heat dissipation vias 98 and the arrangement pitch of the second element connection vias 87 can also be changed in a similar manner.

The support member is in contact with the back surface conductive layer 70 of the light-emitting device 10. This allows heat from the light-emitting device 10 to be transferred to the support member and the housing. This makes it easier for the temperatures of the light-emitting element 150, the drive circuit 200, the current-limiting resistor 300, the protection diode 310, and the auxiliary resistor 313 to decrease, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the light-emitting device 10.
