Patent ID: 6849876

Claim:
A light emitting device comprising: a conductive die-mounting base that has opposite upper and lower surfaces and that is formed with at least one through-hole extending through said upper and lower surfaces and defined by a hole-defining wall, and a conductive first lead extending downwardly from said lower surface; at least one LED die mounted on said upper surface of said die-mounting base and connected electrically to said first lead through said die-mounting base; at least one conductive wire; a conductive second lead spaced apart from said first lead and having an upper end that extends into said through-hole and that cooperates with said hole-defining wall to define a gap therebetween, and a lower end that extends downwardly and outwardly of said through-hole from said upper end, said second lead being connected electrically to said LED die through said conductive wire; and a dielectric material filled in said gap for insulating electrically said second lead from said die-mounting base and for conducting heat generated by said LED die during activation of said LED die through said die-mounting base, said dielectric material, and said second lead, thereby enhancing heat dissipation of said LED die.
