Abstract:
1. A light source module comprising: a circuit board on which a predetermined conductive pattern is formed, wherein at least a portion of the conductive pattern is formed on an uppermost surface of an uppermost layer of the circuit board; a semiconductor light emitting element mechanically directly connected to the conductive pattern; and a plurality of power supplying terminals to which power cords for supplying electric power to the semiconductor light emitting element are connected, wherein the circuit board includes a top surface as the uppermost surface of the uppermost layer, a bottom surface opposite the top surface, and a plurality of side surfaces connecting the top and bottom surfaces, and the circuit board is formed in a rectangular shape, wherein each of the power supplying terminals is formed in a flat plate shape having a thickness that is smaller than a thickness of the circuit board, wherein the uppermost surface of the uppermost layer of the circuit board is positioned higher than an upper face of each of the power supplying terminals, and wherein an entire lower face of the circuit board as the bottom surface is electrically insulated, the plurality of power supplying terminals is fixed onto the conductive pattern on the circuit board by welding, and the plurality of power supplying terminals protrudes from only one of the plurality of side surfaces of the circuit board, wherein the semiconductor light emitting element is mounted on the circuit board and is mechanically directly connected to the predetermined conductive pattern on the uppermost surface of the circuit board.
