Abstract:
A light-emitting device comprising:a base board that has a cavity formed in and two conductors laid on a top surface thereof;a light-emitting diode chip disposed inside the cavity of the base board, said light-emitting diode chip having two electrodes arranged on a top surface thereof;two wires that connect the two electrodes of said light-emitting diode chip individually to the conductors of said base board; andlight-permeating resin in which said light-emitting diode chip and said two wires are sealed,wherein said cavity has a floor surface that is substantially parallel to the top surface of said base board, and on which said light-emitting diode chip is fixed, and has an intermediate surface that is substantially parallel to the top surface of said base board and that is situated at a level which is higher than said floor surface,wherein said two conductors extend from the top surface of said base board to said intermediate surface, andwherein said two wires connect said two electrodes to those portions of said two conductors which are situated on said intermediate surface.
