Patent ID: 8748909

Claim:
A display system, comprising: a first semiconductor light source electrically connected in a first plane; a second semiconductor light source having the characteristics of having been electrically connected in a second plane separate from the first plane; a third semiconductor light source electrically connected in the first plane at least a distance away from the first semiconductor light source equal to the width of the second semiconductor light source; and the second semiconductor light source being positioned between the first semiconductor light source and the third semiconductor light source to merge the first plane and the second plane into a combined plane, wherein the combined plane is configured to be removably inserted into and positioned in an edge portion of a fully assembled housing of a fully assembled display screen, wherein the fully assembled housing includes an aperture for allowing insertion and removal of the combined plane into the edge portion of the fully assembled display screen, without disassembling the display screen and without inserting or removing other components of the display screen, wherein the aperture is located at a corner portion of the fully assembled display screen and allows for insertion and removal of the combined plane in a direction parallel to a longitudinal axis of the edge portion and a longitudinal axis of the combined plane, wherein the combined plane is fully contained within the edge portion of the fully assembled display housing and does not encroach into any portion behind a display area of the fully assembled display screen, and wherein the display screen comprises circuitry for driving the first, second, and third light sources, and the circuitry for driving is separate from the combined plane.
