    Abstract: A light emitting diode circuit (10) comprises a die with a light emitting diode for providing first ambient light (11) originating from a top side of the die and for providing second ambient light (12) originating from a bottom side of the die, to avoid complex and color dependent reflecting surfaces and to use the light more efficiently. The die may be placed on a substrate, planes of the die and the substrate being non-parallel planes, and the die may be at least partly surrounded by an at least partly transparent housing. A device (1) comprises the light emitting diode circuit (10) and a display/screen (2) supported by the first ambient light (11) having a first function like a support at a left/right/rear side of the device (1) and supported by the second ambient light (12) having a second function like a support at a left/right/front side of the device (1).
