Embodiment
For fully understanding feature of the present invention and effect, now by following concrete enforcement example, and cooperate appended graphicly, the present invention is described in detail, illustrate as afterwards:
When the solid brilliant quality of LED is bad, feed under the same nominal electric current, solid brilliant bad LED element its connect surface temperature can be than consolidating the normal LED element of brilliant quality height.The present invention promptly proposes the instant LED of detection package interface method by above-mentioned characteristic, to improve tradition to measure the solid brilliant quality complexity problem consuming time again of LED thermal resistance value screening LED.
Fig. 1 shows that one is assembled in the package interface synoptic diagram of the LED element 10 of circuit board, and wherein led chip 11 is solid brilliant on package carrier 12, and 12 of its chips 11 and package carriers form solid brilliant interface 13.Gu brilliant interface 13 can comprise as elargol, eutectic alloy or heat-conducting glue etc.LED element 10 comprises chip 11, solid brilliant interface 13 and package carrier 12.Package carrier 12 is assembled on the circuit board 15, forms assembling interface 14 therebetween.By this, in fact relevant with the heat radiation of led chip 11 package interface 16 comprises solid brilliant interface 13 and assembling interface 14.
Measuring principle of the present invention is to utilize the forward voltage values of LED to connect the characteristic that the rising of surface temperature reduces with LED.When LED is passed into this at least one electric current, the PN of LED meets the face place and also can generate heat except luminous, LED connects surface temperature just to begin to rise, the forward voltage values of LED just begins to reduce the voltage difference dv (negative value) that causes the second forward voltage V2 to deduct the first forward voltage V1 rapidly and continues to increase, as shown in Figure 2.Feed under the electric current that equates at identical led chip, the speed that the LED forward voltage values descends is relevant with the ability of the outside conduction of institute's thermal value.When the outside conduction of the heat that LED produced was subjected to hindering, the speed that the LED forward voltage values descends can be accelerated.That is in identical conduction time, the forward voltage difference of the heat conduction of measuring LED energising moment and LED to the package interface, outwards the relatively poor LED of thermal conduction capability will present bigger voltage difference.
It is bad in LED component package processing procedure that solid brilliant interface can screening be come out by the measurement of above-mentioned forward voltage difference.Even when the LED element was assembled into circuit board or thermal conductive metal plate, the formed high thermal resistance interface of bad assembling interface also can utilize the measurement of above-mentioned forward voltage difference to carry out screening.
