  • LED ASSEMBLY
    Publication number: 20150338081
    Abstract: An LED assembly is disclosed that comprises a based formed around terminals and a substrate. An LED array is positioned on the substrate in a recess. The LED array is electrically coupled to the terminals, which may be part of a connector formed in the base. An emission disk can be positioned over the LED array. If desired, circuitry can be supplied on the base that helps control or condition the supplied power.

  • LIGHT MODULE
    Publication number: 20150070912
    Abstract: An LED array is mounted on a base that is thermally coupled to a heat spreader. At least one aperture is provided between the support area and an edge of the heat spreader. The heat spreader may be coupled to a thermal pad which has sufficient thermal conductivity and is sufficiently thin to allow the thermal resistivity between the heat spreader and a corresponding heat sink to be below a predetermined value.
