Patent ID: 7910948

Claim:
A light emitting diode package comprising: a lead frame that includes an electrode pad and an electrode lead; and a housing, wherein the electrode pad is exposed in a forward direction through a window formed by inner walls of the housing, and the electrode lead is exposed in a laterally-outward direction through a through-hole, wherein the housing includes a single step indentation at a corner of the housing along the edge of the window, wherein the electrode lead is bent near the through-hole in the forward direction, and then bent in a laterally-inward direction, and an end of the electrode lead extends in a rearward direction such that a bottom surfaces of the electrode lead is coplanar with a horizontal support surface of a lower part of the housing, and wherein a front portion of lateral sides of the housing includes a forwardly-inclined surface, which allows a clearance for the electrode lead bent in the forward direction.
