Patent ID: 6864513

Claim:
A light emitting diode (LED) bulb comprising: a seat having a driving circuit, a bottom and sides; a threaded plug connected to the bottom of the seat and adapted to connect to a bulb socket; an external protector having sides and a top edge, wherein the sides of the external protector are mounted around the sides of the seat; and an LED module mounted on the seat and connected to the driving circuit wherein the LED module comprises: a heat sink having multiple fins and a base with a top and a bottom; an electrical insulting layer formed on the top of the heat sink; a circuit layer made of a highly electrical conductive material and formed on the electrical insulting layer, wherein the circuit layer has a front side and a rear side and is composed of multiple pad sets and the driving circuit is electrically connected to the pad sets, wherein each pad set has a die pad and at least one bonding pad corresponding to the die pad; and multiple LEDs mounted on the front side of the circuit layer, wherein each of the multiple LEDs has a chip connected to one of the die pads, at least one wire bonded between the chip and the at least one bonding pad corresponding to the die pad on which the chip is mounted and an encapsulant covering the chip and the at least one wire bonded between the chip and the bonding pad corresponding to the die pad; whereby heat from the LEDs is immediately conducted to the heat sink through the circuit layer and electrical insulting layer to dissipate from the LED module.
