Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of Invention

[0002] The present invention relates to a packaging design for light emitting diode (LED), more particularly, to a LED package contains three LED dies. 2. Description of Related Art

[0003] Light emitting diode (LED) is a junction diode formed by an epitaxial P-type layer and an epitaxial N-type layer on a heavily doped semiconductor compound base. The diode further includes an ohmic metallic contact on the P-type and N-type layers. LED is mainly packaged within an epoxy or a metallic housing. Visible LED are generally used in display screens, automobile braking lights, scanners, indicator lights for equipment and so on.

[0004] Surface-mount device LED (SMD LED) was developed in the early 1980s. For assembling SMD LED, the chip is glued or eutectic bonded to a metallic system carrier, what is referred to as a leadframe, namely on a central part or island thereof given standard components or, respectively, standard ICs, and wires are bonded to the chip. The chip is also completely enveloped with a plastic molding compound in an injection molding process such that only the ends of the system carrier serving as outer terminals project therefrom.

[0005] SMD LEDs have several of specification, such as 1206M(3.0 mm*1.5 mm*0.7 mm), 1206P (with a size of 3.0 mm*1.5 mm*0.7 mm), 0805M (with a size of 2.0 mm*1.2 mm*0.6 mm), and 0603M (with a size of 1.6 mm*0.8 mm*0.5 mm). Because the 0603M model is especially small in size, only single light emitting diode could be contained in the LED package in accordance with the prior art.

[0006] As soon as the rapid development of mobile phones and PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants), there is a request to develop colorful LED panels to display colorful images. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a LED package with three (3) light emitting diodes (generally red, blue, and green).

[0007] However, particularly for the smallest 0603M model, the conventional LED package can contain only one die, so it is impossible to generate colorful images. Therefore, in order to display colorful images, it is very important for the LED package industry to create a package assembly containing at least a red, a blue, and a green light emitting diodes.
