  • 2. Description of the Related Art
  • In general, various light emitting units such as a light emitting diode (LED) are mounted on a substrate, and when they are driven as a light-emitting body, heat is generated due to light emission, and the heat needs to be effectively dissipated to increase the lifespan and efficiency of the light emitting units.

Here, not only are the functions of the LED package of protecting the LED and providing a connection to a light emitting device important, but heat dissipation performance of the LED package for dissipating heat from the LED is also an important evaluation standard for evaluating LED packages.
  • Since a contact surface of a LED with a substrate is the largest, and heat may preferably be dissipated through the substrate, and various heat dissipation structures for dissipating heat through a substrate are being developed.
  • The most effective way of dissipating heat of a light emitting unit is to include a metal substrate so that heat generated in the light emitting unit is dissipated through the metal substrate to the outside, and accordingly, various researches are being conducted into a heat dissipating substrate which may increase performance and lifetime of a LED, by simplifying a structure of the heat dissipating substrate and improving heat dissipation performance thereof.

  • DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
  • Hereinafter, the technical configuration of the light emitting diode package according to the present invention and the effects thereof will be clearly understood from the detailed description below with reference to the accompanying drawings in which exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown.
  • First, FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a heat dissipating substrate 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
  • As illustrated in FIG. 1, the heat dissipating substrate 100 may include a substrate 110 formed of a metal material, an insulating layer 120 formed on a surface of the substrate 110, a coating layer 130 formed on an inner wall surface of a via hole 111 formed in the substrate 110, a metal pattern 150 formed on the insulating layer 120 formed on the surface of the substrate 110, a metal layer 140 formed on the coating layer 130, and a filling material 160 filled in inner portions of the metal layer 140.
  • The substrate 110 may be formed of a metal such as an aluminum (Al) which is a representative metal having excellent thermal conductivity, and at least one via hole 111 may be formed on the substrate 110.
  • The via hole 111 may be formed by CNC drilling or etching. Also, the via hole 111 may be used as an electrical connection portion that electrically connects metal patterns 150 formed on upper and lower surfaces of the substrate 110 which will be described below.
  • The insulating layer 120 may be formed on the entire surface of the substrate 110 including the inner wall surface of the via hole 111. The insulating layer 120 may be formed on the substrate 110, which is formed of aluminum, using an oxide coating layer (Al2O3) by anodizing. The anodizing may be performed by using an organic acid, a sulfuric acid, or a mixture thereof.
  • Aluminum used to form the substrate 110 is a metal which is easily obtainable at relatively low price, and has excellent thermal conductivity, and an oxide coating layer formed on a surface of the substrate 110 may also be formed using a thin insulator that has a relatively high thermal conductivity of about 10 to 30 W/mK by anodizing, thereby providing low thermal resistance.
  • Accordingly, compared to copper or ceramics which is used to form a substrate according to the related art, not only has the substrate 110 formed of aluminum excellent heat dissipation performance but also the substrate 110 may be anodized relatively easily, and thus the costs and time for processing may be reduced.
  • The coating layer 130 is formed on the inner wall surface of the via hole 111, and the coating layer 130 may be formed of a conductive material such as a metal or a non-conductive material such as epoxy or polymer.
  • When the coating layer 130 is formed of a conductive material, the coating layer 130 may be formed by plating, and when the coating layer 130 is formed of a non-conductive material, the via hole 111 may be filled with a non-conductive material so as to completely fill the via hole 111, and then a through hole is formed by drilling or laser processing so that the coating layer 130 is formed only on the inner wall surface of the via hole 111.
  • Also, the metal patterns 150 are electrically separated from adjacent metal patterns on the insulating layer 120, and a portion on the metal patterns 150 where a light emitting unit such as a LED is to be mounted may be formed as an electrode portion. The metal patterns 150 may be extended inwardly into the via hole 111 and be formed as the metal layer 140 on the coating layer 130. The metal patterns 150 may perform the function as an electrode and the function of heat dissipation at the same time.
  • The metal patterns 150 may be formed on the insulating layer 120 as illustrated in FIG. 1, or alternatively, a portion of the insulating layer 120 may be removed and the metal patterns 150 may be formed on an exposed portion of an upper surface of the substrate 110. In this case, a lower surface of the metal pattern 150 directly contacts the upper surface of the substrate 110, and a LED is mounted on an upper surface of the metal pattern 150, thereby further enhancing the effects of heat dissipation of the LED.
  • As described above, the insulating layer 120, the coating layer 130, and the metal layer 140 extended from the metal patterns 150 may be sequentially formed in the via hole ill, and a through hole is formed between portions of the metal layer 140 so as to fill a filling material 160 in the through hole. The filling material 160 may be epoxy or polymer formed of a non-conductive material, and the metal layer 140 formed on inner portions of the via hole 111 is shorted by the filling material 160 to thereby prevent a short circuit between the metal patterns 150.
  • Also, as described in the objective of the present invention, as the insulating layer 120, the coating layer 130, and the metal layer 140 are sequentially formed in the via hole 111 which is formed to have a relatively large size by drilling or punching due to characteristics of the metal substrate 110, a diameter of the via hole 111 may be reduced, and the filling material 160 may be injected into the reduced via hole 111.
  • Consequently, when heat is dissipated through the substrate 110 which is formed of a metal material, due to the characteristics of a metal substrate, the via hole 111 is constricted or expanded by the heat, and here, by reducing the diameter of the via hole 111 by using the coating layer 130 formed on the inner wall surface of the via hole 111, variation in the diameter of the via hole 111 due to thermal deformation of the substrate 110 may be minimized.
  • Various types of light emitting units may be mounted on a heat dissipating substrate having the above-described structure according to the present invention, and a structure in which a LED is mounted as a light emitting unit will be briefly described as an example below.
  • FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of a heat dissipating substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention, on which a light emitting unit is mounted.
  • At least one via hole 111 is formed so that a light emitting unit 200, for example, a LED (hereinafter referred to as a LED chip 200) may be mounted on a substrate 110 which is formed of a metal material and on upper and lower surfaces of which metal patterns 150 are formed.
  • The LED chip 200 is a LED chip having a vertical electrode structure, and one electrode (not shown) formed on the LED chip 200 is directly connected to the metal patterns 150, and the other electrode (not shown) may be electrically connected to the metal patterns 150, on which the LED chip 200 is not mounted, via a wire 210. Here, the metal patterns 150 connected to the LED chip 200 via the wire 210 may be extended up to the lower surface of the metal substrate 110 via the metal layer 140 that is extended to an inner portion of the via hole 111.
  • Also, a molding unit 220 that covers the LED chip 200 and the wire 210 may be formed on the substrate 110. The molding unit 220 may be formed to a desired form by using a silicon resin, an epoxy resin, or an epoxy molding compound (EMC) or the like and by using a method using an injection molding method, a transfer molding method, or a pin gate molding method.
  • Hereinafter, a method of manufacturing the heat dissipating substrate having the above-described structure will be described.
