  • Patent number: 10333032
    Abstract: An embodiment optoelectronic semiconductor device includes a housing having a leadframe with a first and second connection conductor. The housing further has a housing body surrounding the leadframe in one or more regions. The housing body extends in a vertical direction between a mounting side of the housing body and a front side of the housing body opposite the mounting side. The first connection conductor has a recess. A semiconductor chip configured to generate radiation is arranged within the housing, and the semiconductor chip is disposed in the recess and is affixed to the first connection conductor within the recess. A side face of the recess forms a reflector for reflecting the generated radiation. The first connection conductor protrudes from the housing body at the mounting side. The semiconductor chip is, in at least some regions, free of an encapsulation material adjoining the semiconductor chip.

  • Publication number: 20060194355
    Abstract: A laser diode component comprising a laser diode bar on which a specific operating voltage is impressed during operation and with which a bridging element is connected in parallel, which bridging element is in a current-blocking state when the specific operating voltage is impressed on the associated laser diode bar and which bridging element changes over to a current-conducting state as soon as the voltage drop across the laser diode bar exceeds the operating voltage by a predefined voltage value. A circuit arrangement comprising a plurality of such laser diode components which are connected in series is furthermore specified.
