A light-emitting device comprising: a metal substrate comprising electrode portions (2a-2g) in a topside of the metal substrate ; a first recessed groove along a perimeter of the topside of the metal substrate ; insulative portions each separating corresponding ones of the electrode portions (2a - 2g) from each other so that one of the electrode portions (2a-2g) serves as an anode and another of the electrode portions (2a-2g) serves as a cathode, the insulative portions each comprising an electrode separation groove extending through the metal substrate and an insulative resin filling the electrode separation groove and exposed to a backside of the metal substrate ; a plurality of LEDs (1a-1f) at the topside of the metal substrate , each of the LEDs (1a-1f) straddling a corresponding one of the insulative portions and being electrically coupled to corresponding ones of the electrode portions (2a-2g); a support frame at the perimeter of the topside of the metal substrate , the support frame comprising an inner wall portion and an outer wall portion each being integral with the support frame , the inner wall portion being disposed within the first recessed groove , the outer wall portion covering an outer perimeter surface of the metal substrate in close contact with the outer perimeter surface , and being disposed along an entire perimeter of the metal substrate in close contact with outer lateral surfaces of the metal substrate , a backside of the outer wall portion being located above the backside of the metal substrate , and the support frame being fixedly attached to the perimeter of the topside of the metal substrate via the inner wall portion and the outer wall portion ; and an encapsulation resin disposed within the support frame to at least partially encapsulate the LEDs (1a-1f). a metal substrate comprising electrode portions (2a-2g) in a topside of the metal substrate ; a first recessed groove along a perimeter of the topside of the metal substrate ; insulative portions each separating corresponding ones of the electrode portions (2a - 2g) from each other so that one of the electrode portions (2a-2g) serves as an anode and another of the electrode portions (2a-2g) serves as a cathode, the insulative portions each comprising an electrode separation groove extending through the metal substrate and an insulative resin filling the electrode separation groove and exposed to a backside of the metal substrate ; a plurality of LEDs (1a-1f) at the topside of the metal substrate , each of the LEDs (1a-1f) straddling a corresponding one of the insulative portions and being electrically coupled to corresponding ones of the electrode portions (2a-2g); a support frame at the perimeter of the topside of the metal substrate , the support frame comprising an inner wall portion and an outer wall portion each being integral with the support frame , the inner wall portion being disposed within the first recessed groove , the outer wall portion covering an outer perimeter surface of the metal substrate in close contact with the outer perimeter surface , and being disposed along an entire perimeter of the metal substrate in close contact with outer lateral surfaces of the metal substrate , a backside of the outer wall portion being located above the backside of the metal substrate , and the support frame being fixedly attached to the perimeter of the topside of the metal substrate via the inner wall portion and the outer wall portion ; and an encapsulation resin disposed within the support frame to at least partially encapsulate the LEDs (1a-1f). <EOS>
