Claim:
1. A Light Emitting Diode (LED) component comprising: an LED die that comprises first and second opposing faces and an anode contact and/or a cathode contact on the first face thereof, the anode and cathode contacts including outer faces remote from the LED die; a contact expansion frame that comprises an expanded anode contact that is electrically connected to the anode contact remote from the LED die and/or an expanded cathode contact that is electrically connected to the cathode contact remote from the LED die, the expanded anode contact extending along the outer face of the anode contact and beyond the anode contact, the expanded cathode contact extending along the outer face of the cathode contact and beyond the cathode contact, the expanded anode and cathode contacts including outer faces remote from the anode and cathode contacts, the outer faces of the expanded anode and cathode contacts extending along a given direction; a patterned solder mask on the outer face of the contact expansion frame remote from the anode and cathode contacts, the patterned solder mask exposing a first portion of the outer face of the expanded anode contact and/or a first portion of the outer face of the expanded cathode contact, the patterned solder mask extending on a second portion of the outer face of the expanded anode contact and/or a second portion of the outer face of the expanded cathode contact along the given direction, the first and second portions being offset from one another along the given direction; and a solder layer on the first portion of the outer face of the expanded anode contact and/or on the first portion of the outer face of the expanded cathode contact.
