  • Patent number: 8591067
    Abstract: A light source device having a good heat dissipation capability is disclosed, in which heat generated by a light emitting device is conducted to a base fabricated by a porous material through a heat conducting mask or a heat conducting pipe. Due to a large area contact between the heat conducting mask or the heat conducting pipe and the base, the heat can be evenly conducted to the base, so that the base can absorb the heat and dissipate the heat to external, so as to improve a heat dissipation efficiency. Moreover, in the light source device of the disclosure, heat exchange of the light emitting device can be directly carried on through air convection, so that the heat generated by the light emitting device can be taken away from the light source device through heat exchange of cool air.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for measuring the PN-junction temperature of a light-emitting diode (LED), which uses a reference voltage to establish the function of current, real power, power factor, or driving-time interval on temperature. The initial and thermal-equilibrium values of current, real power, power factor, or driving-time interval are measured, and hence the variations thereof are calculated. Referring to the pre-established function, the temperature change is given. By the temperature change and the initial temperature, the PN-junction temperature of the LED is thereby deduced.
