Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an LED chip insert for a circuit board, a lighting device with an LED chip insert and circuit board, a lighting module using the lighting device, which can also be used in particular in vehicle lights or headlights, and a method for producing the lighting device .
  • LED modules are being used to an increasing extent.
  • high-performance LEDs are also used here.
  • a recently introduced platform that can also comply with the standards provided by the International Technical Commission (IEC) is the eXchangeable LED Signal lamp, or XLS for short.
  • IEC International Technical Commission
  • XLS eXchangeable LED Signal lamp
  • This standard allows uniform designs with the possible variation of lighting equipment, i.e. different combinations and arrangements of LEDs in the module depending on the use and application.
  • Such different applications can be, for example, daytime running lights, indicators, brake lights or additional functions such as fog lights, high beam etc.
  • a particularly relevant point when using high-performance LEDs in such LED modules relates to thermal management.
  • the LEDs are attached to printed circuit boards (PCBs) directly or by means of lead frames.
  • the circuit boards essentially consist of flame-retardant FR-4, which, however, does not itself offer sufficient heat conduction.
  • holes, so-called vias can be provided in the circuit board, which can be filled with copper from the inside. are layered and are connected via superficial copper tracks with the individual or meh eral LEDs having LED chip. The heat can be transported via such vias to the rear surface of the circuit board, where in the case of the XLS modules it is connected to a heat sink via an adhesive layer.
  • LED chips Due to the design and thermal stress, however, it has proven to be unfavorable to place LED chips directly on vias. In special cases, individual LED chips may be inclined, so that the result may be that the emitted light is not radiated in the headlight in accordance with the standards.
  • the object is achieved by an LED chip insert for a circuit board with the features of claim 1, a lighting device with the LED chip insert and a circuit board with the features according to claim 10, a light module with the features according to claim 14 and a Method for producing the lighting device having the features according to patent claim 15.
  • Advantageous developments of the circuit arrangement according to the invention are the subject matter of the dependent claims.
  • the core of one aspect of the invention is an LED chip insert for a printed circuit board. This comprises a lead frame, an injection molding frame and at least one LED chip provided in use.
  • a number of electrically conductive strands are formed with respective ends by punching them, which have bearing surfaces which are intended for attachment to a printed circuit board and which build a common plane.
  • the bearing surfaces can at least partially form contact surfaces.
  • the En can be designed like tabs. However, the contact surfaces do not have to lie flat on the circuit board when the LED chip insert is attached to it.
  • the strands are formed or structured by die cutting, that is, by removing material from the lead frame blank. They can therefore be (electrically) separated from one another in accordance with the exemplary embodiments described here below. But it is just as possible that these are wholly or partially connected to one another. It can also be that there are only two ends in total, which, for example, form contact surfaces on opposite sides of the leadframe.
  • the support surfaces can, but do not have to form electrical connections of the conductor frame for supplying the LED chip with power in individual cases. If they form electrical connections, they are preferably soldered to the circuit board, preferably with conductor tracks, e.g. made of copper, which are formed on the circuit board.
  • the strings are designed according to the desired number, arrangement and function of the LED chips and have corresponding electrical properties. Not every strand has to be assigned an LED chip. Preferably at least two strands are required.
  • the lead frame also has an area formed as a recess opposite the ends.
  • the term "recess" already indicates that the material of the leadframe is formed or shifted out of the reference plane of the ends or their support surface, specifically in a direction in which the support surface of the ends of the strands faces, in the case the assembly of the LED chip insert on a circuit board consequently into the circuit board level.
  • the LED chip insert has an injection molding frame which is formed from an electrically insulating material and surrounds a surface of the lead frame which is exposed within the region of the recess and which faces the ends of the strands (ie, the bearing surfaces) in a ring-like manner and as a result causes an overall trough-like structure.
  • the injection molding frame can be manufactured by injection molding processes known in the technical field. It preferably pours the structure of the lead frame and thus forms the trough, which can be used with particular advantage, for example, for filling with a titanium oxide-based reflective layer around the LED chip, so that this alone saves effort. Conventionally, a wall is to be formed around the LED chip or chips around in an additional step, which is then ver afterwards.
  • the injection-molded frame also has the particular advantage that it mechanically connects the components of the lead frame, ie the strands with one another, and at the same time electrically insulates them, but gives the entire insert mechanical cohesion.
  • At least one LED chip (preferably several LED chips) is provided, which is placed on one or more of the strands in the area of the lead frame designed as a recess and has a first electrical contact connection and a second electrical contact connection, the The first electrical contact connection is connected to a first of the strands and the second electrical contact connection to a second of the strands in an electrically conductive manner.
  • the strings supply the LED chip with the electrical (voltage or current) signals required for operation.
  • the at least one LED chip is connected to the leadframe in the region of the recess directly or at least via an adhesion promoter. He can directly dissipate heat via the strand or strands in question. Since the recess is oriented in the direction of the support surface, the lead frame structure or strand in question extends in the area of the recess through the circuit board in which the LED chip insert is inserted - which is of course only possible if this is a corresponding one Recess in front sees how an aspect of the invention to be described below with regard to a lighting device with circuit board and LED chip insert also provides.
  • the thermally conductive leadframe structure can also contact a cooling body surface arranged below, as is provided in particular in the case of XLS modules (but also other light modules), and to which, for example, the circuit board in the vicinity the recess is glued.
  • the heat from the LED chip can be given off with high efficiency via the strand in the region of the depression directly to a cooling surface in the light module that may be located below.
  • the contact surface i.e. the rear surface of the lead frame and of the injection molding frame, for example, which encapsulates the space between the strands of the lead frame in the region of the recess, is glued to the cooling surface in the light module.
  • MCPCB metal core PCBs
  • additional copper tracks to carry out an effective thermal management and at the same time, as described, the process of dispensing a dam to provide a tank for filling with a titanium oxide containing silicone casting compound with reflective properties for the blue primary radiation makes superfluous.
  • an encircling structure made of silicone that surrounds the conversion light sources (LED) and is raised in relation to the base area is formed for this purpose.
  • the dam is applied by dispensing.
  • the space enclosed by this dam including the spaces between the individual copper strands, is filled with a light-reflecting, Ti02-containing silicone potting compound to such an extent that the ( blue) primary radiation is reflected back to the LED or onto the conversion layer of the LEDs and is thus again available for a conversion of blue radiation into yellow conversion light.
  • this reflective layer comprising titanium oxide is also simplified as a result.
  • the invention enables a spatially very short, direct passage of the heat through pure copper to the heat sink of the light module.
  • the area of the leadframe designed as a recess is formed by stamping of an originally planar leadframe blank that has been stamped out in advance to form the strands.
  • the strands are parallel to each other and only form ends on two opposite sides with contact surfaces for attachment to the (front) upper main surface of the circuit board, it may be that there are no ends on the front sides of the lead frame and the area of the recess in directions perpendicular to the Strand direction (within the plane of the plate) is open.
  • This section is then preferably also covered by the injection molding frame, so that the trough is formed, ie the open end (s) of the recess are closed by the injection molding frame, so that the trough shape is advantageously retained and on to form a reflective layer he required dam can be dispensed with.
  • the trough-like structure within the injection molding frame enclosing the recess in a ring-like manner is filled with a silicone potting compound preferably containing titanium oxide, the upper surface of the layer being at the same level or below an upper light exit surface (Converter layer) of the LED chip is so that it is not wetted by the layer.
  • a silicone potting compound preferably containing titanium oxide
  • the upper surface of the layer being at the same level or below an upper light exit surface (Converter layer) of the LED chip is so that it is not wetted by the layer.
  • the blue light component emerging from the side and therefore hardly usable due to the geometry can be at least partially reflected back onto the conversion layer of the LEDs in the reflective layer and, if necessary, converted into yellow light and emitted from there in the desired direction of radiation, so that efficiency is further increased will.
  • the side surfaces of the tub in the area of the injection molding frame can additionally be coated in order to improve the reflection. For this purpose, they can also have an inclination with respect to the surface normal, i.e. not be perpendicular to the support surface.
  • the injection-molded frame can be designed in such a way that only a minimally necessary area around the LEDs remains free for the reflective layer and the electrical contacting of the individual copper strands. The volume required for the reflective layer can thus be reduced.
  • the area of the lead frame designed as a depression extends essentially along a plane parallel to the support surface.
  • the lead frame in the region of the recess has a flat back surface facing away from the ends of the strands.
  • the rear surface is essentially flush with the lower main surface of the circuit board.
  • This can be easily compensated for by the adhesive between the cooling surface and the back of the circuit board. It is important that the connection between the ends of the lead frame and the soldering pads on the circuit board (if, for example, soldering) is not under mechanical tension. This could be the case if the area of the lead frame containing the recess protrudes beyond the back of the circuit board when these are assembled and the circuit board is glued onto the cooling surface. Therefore, taking into account the manufacturing tolerances, the recess is formed in practice rather cautiously by a small margin compared to the printed circuit board thickness.
  • the leadframe is made of copper, preferably has a thickness of 100 ⁇ m to 150 ⁇ m, and is further preferably coated with a protective film against oxidation that forms an end surface, in particular a film made of ENEPIG (Electroless Nickel Electroless Palladium Immersion gold).
  • ENEPIG Electroless Nickel Electroless Palladium Immersion gold
  • This protective layer is extremely planar and has very good oxidation properties. It is also particularly suitable for gold wire bonding, which is used very advantageously in LEDs.
  • the injection molding frame on the leadframe is made from a plastic, in particular from a thermoplastic such as polyphthalamide (PPA) or polycyclohexylene dimethylene terephthalate (PCT), or from WEMC (White Epoxy Molding Compound).
  • a plastic in particular from a thermoplastic such as polyphthalamide (PPA) or polycyclohexylene dimethylene terephthalate (PCT), or from WEMC (White Epoxy Molding Compound).
  • the at least one LED chip is placed on a first of the strands in the region of the recess and is preferably bonded to this first strand by means of an adhesion promoter with its base area forming the first electrical contact connection.
  • the at least one LED chip is connected via a bond Wire bonded to a second of the strands.
  • This attachment implemented using chip-on-board (COB) technology, proves to be particularly suitable for the application.
  • COB chip-on-board
  • the LED chip can also be placed in SMD technology.
  • a lighting device with the Lei terplatte and the LED chip insert is also provided therein.
  • the circuit board is formed from an electrically insulating material and has an upper main surface with conductor tracks (e.g. made of copper) and a lower main surface opposite to this.
  • a recess extending through the printed circuit board is formed between the main surfaces, as has already been exemplified above.
  • An LED chip insert set up in accordance with one of the above-mentioned aspects and exemplary embodiments is provided, i.e. inserted, therein.
  • the lead frame is attached to the circuit board by resting the ends of the strands of the lead frame forming the bearing surface with this bearing surface on an upper main surface of the circuit board and being attached to it, for example by soldering, such as reflow soldering, or by laser, which is still offers advantages to be described.
  • soldering such as reflow soldering, or by laser, which is still offers advantages to be described.
  • the formed as a recess opposite the plane of the ladder frame mens is now fitted into the recess in the circuit board, it should be noted that at least one tolerance distance between the side walls of the recess, ie the injection molding frame, and the inner edge of the recess of the circuit board is provided is. A contact between the two is not excluded, but also not necessary.
  • the geometry - viewed in the plane of the printed circuit board or the support surfaces of the leadframe - of the recess can also deviate considerably from that of the area of the recess in the leadframe or in the LED chip insert.
  • the term “fitting in” is therefore to be interpreted broadly and relates more to "leading in”.
  • the printed circuit board is made of a poorly thermally conductive material, preferably FR4. Additionally or alternatively, the printed circuit board can be cut in a substantially circular shape. In the latter case, it is particularly suitable for the exchangeable XLS modules, the housing of which is hollow-cylinder-shaped and in which correspondingly circular printed circuit boards are provided on the front side, on which the LED chips are mounted directly or indirectly.
  • LED chips are provided, with one LED chip each placed on one of the strands in the area of the recess and connected via its contact terminals to one and another strand on which an adjacent LED chip is connected is placed in the same way, so that at least a subset of the LED chips are electrically connected in series with one another.
