The lower connecting part 131 includes a first lower connecting portion 131a and a second lower connecting portion 131b. The light source 10 is electrically connected to the driving circuit board 18 via the first lower connecting portion 131a and the second lower connecting portion 131b. For example, a current provided by the driving circuit board 18 flows through the second lower connection portion 131b and enters the second light emitting component 102, and then the current flows through the upper connecting part 130 and enters the first light emitting component 101. The current flows back to the driving circuit board 18 through the first lower connection portion 131a after passing the first light emitting component 101 so a current loop is formed accordingly. Each of the upper connecting part 130 and the lower connecting part 131 includes one conductive material (e.g., metal). The supporting pillar 11 includes a transparent material (e.g., glass) with a conductive structure penetrating the transparent material and connected to the upper connecting part 130.

The lower connecting part 131 is electrically connected to power contacts 180 on the driving circuit board 18 (referring to FIG. 2B) via the second through holes 160 (referring to FIG. 2A) of the control module board 16. Thus, the driving circuit board 18 is capable of providing a current to the light source 10 via the lower connecting part 131. In one embodiment, there is metal material disposed in the through holes to contact the lower connecting part 131 directly. The supporting pillar 11 extends downwardly to the outside of the housing 12 and passes a third through hole 161 of the control module board 16 to directly contact the light circuit board 18.

The antenna 170 is disposed on the control module board 16. The substrate 163 includes a first upper surface 164 and a first lower surface 165 opposite to the first upper surface 164. The traces 23 on the first upper surface 164 is electrically connected to the control chip 19, antenna 170 and the ejector pins 22. The second through holes 160 and the third through hole 161 penetrate the substrate 163 and the upper connecting part 131 passes the second through holes 160. Thus, the upper connecting part 131 is electrically connected to the driving circuit board 18. Referring to FIG. 1A, the supporting pillar 11 passes the third through hole 161 and thus directly contacts the driving circuit board 18. The control chip 19 is disposed on the first upper surface 164. One of the traces 23 connects the chip 19 and the antenna 170. The control chip 19 receives an external control signal received by the antenna 170 and converts the external control signal to the internal control signal.

In another embodiment, other components (not shown in the drawings), such as a transistor, a resistor or a capacitor, are disposed on the control module board 16. In one embodiment, other traces (not shown in the drawings) and other components (not shown in the drawings) are disposed on the first lower surface 165 so the space is well utilized.

Referring to FIG. 2B, the driving circuit board 18 includes a substrate 183, power contacts 180, a receiving part 181, a driving circuit 21, traces 25 and an ejector pin base 24. The substrate 183 includes a second upper surface 184 and a second lower surface 185 opposite to the second upper surface 184. The driving circuit 21, the traces 25 and the ejector pin base 24 are disposed on the second upper surface 184. The lower connecting part 131 passes the second through holes 160 and thus directly contacts the power contacts 180. The lower connecting part 131 is electrically connected to the driving circuit 21 via the traces 25. The supporting pillar 21 passes the third through hole 161 and thus directly contacts the receiving part 181. The power contacts 180 include a metal part penetrating the substrate 183. The ejector pin base 24 is configured to accommodate the ejector pins 22. The ejector pin base includes a metal layer (not show in the drawings) for contacting the ejector pins 22 and the traces 25 so the ejector pins 22 can be electrically connected to the traces 25 via the metal layer. As a result, the internal control signal generated by the control chip 19 can be provided to the driving circuit 21 via the metal layer of the ejector pin base 24 and the traces 25. In one embodiment, the ejector pin base 24 is fixed on the substrate 183 so the ejector pins 22 can be stably disposed on the second upper surface 184 via the ejector pin base 24. In comparison with connecting the ejector pins 22 and the traces 25 by solder, the ejector pin base 24 lowers the probability of open circuit defects induced by movements during manufacturing so the yield is improved. The driving circuit 21 generates a driving signal based on the internal control signal and provides the driving signal to the light source 10 via the lower connecting part 131 to adjust the optical characteristics of the light provided by the light source 10, such as the luminance, color temperature or a flicker frequency of the light provided by the light source. The driving circuit 21 can adjust a characteristic of the driving signal, such as a current peak value, a current period, a voltage period, a duty ratio or a voltage peak value. The optical characteristics of the light provided by the light source 10 can be adjusted by adjusting the current or the voltage of the driving signal. In one embodiment, the driving circuit 21 includes a bridge rectifier, a transistor, a diode, a resistor, a capacitor and a filter. The transistor can be a high electron mobility transistor (HEMT). The diode can be a Zener diode. In one embodiment, the driving circuit 21 includes other components disposed on the second lower surface 185, such as a resistor or a capacitor. The components on the second lower surface 185 can be electrically connected to the traces 25 on the upper surface 184 via a metal layer penetrating the substrate 183. The driving circuit board 18 can receive power by wires (not shown in the drawings) electrically connected to the connector 14 and the details can be referred to the above descriptions.
Referring to FIGS. 1A-1B and FIGS. 2A-2B, a part of the control module board 16 overlaps the driving circuit board 18. The second through holes 160 overlap the power contacts 180 at a first cross section so the lower connecting part 131 passes the second through holes 160 easily and is connected to the power contacts 180. In other words, the first lower connecting portion 131a and the second lower connecting portion 131b passes different second through holes 160 respectively and are connected to different power contacts 180 respectively. The first lower connecting portion 131a and the second lower connecting portion 131b are not in direct contact to avoid short-circuit. The ejector pin base 24 accommodates the ejector pins 22 so the ejector pins 22 overlap the ejector pin base 24 at a second cross section. The third through hole 161 overlaps the receiving part 181 at a third cross section so the supporting pillar 11 passes the third through hole 161 and thus the supporting pillar 11 contacts or passes the receiving part 181. Therefore, the driving circuit board 18 carries the supporting pillar 11. In one embodiment, an insulation layer is disposed between the control module board 16 and the driving circuit board 18 so the traces 25 and components on the second upper surface 184 of the driving circuit board 18 do not contact the traces on the first lower surface 165 (not shown in the drawings) or components on the first lower surface 165 (not shown in the drawings). Thus, short-circuit is avoided.
