Patent ID: 8414153

Claim:
A LED bulb comprising: a first printed circuit board having a first top surface and a first bottom surface; a second printed circuit board having a second top surface and a second bottom surface; a first light emitting diode mounted to the first top surface of the first printed circuit board, wherein the first light emitting diode is electrically coupled to the first printed circuit board; a second light emitting diode mounted to the second top surface of the second printed circuit board, wherein the second light emitting diode is electrically coupled to the first printed circuit board; a heat sink positioned between the first bottom surface of the first printed circuit board and the second bottom surface of the second printed circuit board; a bridge rectifier electrically coupled to the first printed circuit board; a voltage regulator electrically coupled to the first printed circuit board; a capacitor electrically coupled to the second printed circuit board; a current limiter electrically coupled to the second printed circuit board; a socket electrically coupled to the first printed circuit board; a housing, wherein the housing substantially encloses the first and second light emitting diodes, the housing comprising a composition suitable to allow the penetration of light emitted by the first and second light emitting diodes to pass therethrough.
