Patent ID: 8410508

Claim:
A light emitting diode (LED) package comprising: a substrate having a die-mounting pad, a first conductor in electrical communication with the die mounting pad and a second conductor; a light emitting diode (LED) die in electrical contact with the die-mounting pad having a foot print, a circuit side, a die contact on the circuit side and a plurality of edges, the (LED) die configured to emit electromagnetic radiation in a first spectral region; a dielectric layer on the circuit side and edges of the (LED) die and on the substrate; a wavelength conversion member on the dielectric layer configured to convert the electromagnetic radiation in the first spectral region to electromagnetic radiation in a second spectral region, the wavelength conversion member having a peripheral shape substantially matching the footprint of the (LED) die, a front surface and sidewalls; an interconnect comprising a conductive trace on the front surface of the wavelength conversion member and extending along a sidewall of the wavelength conversion member and on the dielectric layer on the edges of the (LED) die in electrical contact with the die contact and with the second conductor; and a transparent dome configured as a lens encapsulating the (LED) die.
