Patent ID: 8343784

Claim:
A method for manufacturing a light emitting diode, the method comprising: forming a concavity in an upper portion of a wafer body; forming a plurality of metal layers on a surface of the wafer body, each of the plurality of metal layers having a portion disposed on a bottom surface of the concavity, a portion disposed on a top surface of the wafer body, and a portion disposed on a lower surface of the wafer body, the plurality of metal layers being spaced apart from each other; flip-bonding a light emitting diode chip on the portions of the plurality of metal layers disposed on the bottom surface of the concavity so that the light emitting diode chip is electrically connected to each of the plurality of metal layers; filling a resin in the concavity to cover the light emitting diode chip; and forming a plurality of electrode pads respectively under the portions of the plurality of metal layers disposed on the bottom surface of the wafer body so that the plurality of electrode pads are electrically connected to the light emitting diode chip, wherein a top surface of the resin is formed on a same plane as a top surface of the portions of the plurality of metal layers disposed on the top surface of the wafer body, wherein the plurality of electrode pads each have a thickness thicker than a thickness of each of the plurality of metal layers, and wherein the thickness the plurality of electrode pads is greater than 10 micrometers.
