  • Patent number: 10957832
    Abstract: A light emitting semiconductor (LES) device having desirable thermal performance characteristics is disclosed. The LES device includes an insulating substrate layer having a plurality of vias formed therein and at least one LES chip mounted on the insulating substrate layer, with each of the LES chips(s) including an active surface including a light emitting area configured to emit light therefrom and a back surface positioned on a top surface of the insulating substrate layer and including connection pads thereon. A conductor layer is positioned on a bottom surface of the insulating substrate layer and in the vias, the conductor layer in direct contact with the connection pads of the LES chip(s) so as to be electrically and thermally connected thereto. An encapsulant is positioned adjacent the top surface of the insulating substrate layer and surrounding at least part of the LES chip(s), the encapsulant comprising a light transmitting material.

  • Patent number: 10332832
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a multi-layer electronics package includes attaching a base insulating substrate to a frame having an opening therein and such that the frame is positioned above and/or below the base insulating substrate to provide support thereto. A first conductive wiring layer is applied on the first side of the base insulating substrate, and vias are formed in the base insulating substrate. A second conductive wiring layer is formed on the second side of the base insulating substrate that covers the vias and the exposed portions of the first conductive wiring layer and at least one additional insulating substrate is bonded to the base insulating substrate. Vias are formed in each additional insulating substrate and an additional conductive wiring layer is formed on each of the additional insulating substrate. The described build-up forms a multilayer interconnect structure, with the frame providing support for this build-up.
