  • Patent number: 8648449
    Abstract: According to example configurations herein, a leadframe includes a connection interface. The connection interface can be configured for attaching an electrical circuit to the leadframe. The leadframe also can include a conductive path. The conductive path in the leadframe provides an electrical connection between a first electrical node of the electrical circuit and a second electrical node of the electrical circuit. Prior to making the connection between the electrical circuit and the leadframe, the first electrical node and the second electrical node can be electrically isolated from each other. Subsequent to making connection of the electrical circuit with the leadframe, the conductive path of the leadframe electrically connects the first electrical node and the second electrical node together. Accordingly, the leadframe provides connectivity between nodes of an electrical circuit in lieu of having to provide such connectivity at, for example, a metal interconnect layer of an integrated circuit device.

    Abstract: A light emitting device has a cup portion with a bottom surface opening, and one electrode of a light emitting element is connected to the cup portion. The other electrode of the light emitting element is connected to a lead set up from an inner space to outside the cup portion using the opening of the cup portion. Each electrode and lead of the light emitting device can be electrically connected without bonding wires. This prevents shadows or light unevenness from reflecting the shape of the bonding wire, thereby enhancing light-emission efficiency. As an alternative to setting up the lead from inside to the outside of the cup portion, the lead existing outside the cup portion and the other electrode are electrically connected via the bonding wire through the cup portion's opening. Thus, light outputted outside of the light emitting device is not intercepted by the bonding wire.
