DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 6B, where the first embodiment of the instant disclosure a light bulb Z using a multichip package structure C, comprising: a base unit 1, an electrical connecting unit 2, a light-emitting unit 3, and a lamp cover unit 4.


Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the base unit 1 includes a base body 10 having a bottom side. For example, the base body 10 may be composed of a heat-dissipating body 101 and a plurality of heat-dissipating fins 102 surrounding the heat-dissipating body 101 and disposed on the outer surrounding peripheral surface of the heat-dissipating body 101, and the heat-dissipating fins 102 can be integrated with the heat-dissipating body 101. However, the base body 10 used in the first embodiment is merely an example and is not meant to limit the instant disclosure.


Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the electrical connecting unit 2 has a top side connected with the bottom side of the base body 10, and the electrical connecting unit 2 includes at least one electrical connecting element 20 disposed on the bottom portion thereof. For example, the electrical connection element 20 may be an electrical connector having a securing screw 200 formed on the external surrounding surface of the electrical connector, thus the electrical connection element 20 of the light bulb Z can be positioned in a power socket (not shown) by rotating to obtain power supply. In addition, the electrical connection unit 2 includes a drive IC module 21 disposed inside the base body 10, and the drive IC module 21 is electrically connected between the electrical connecting element 20 and the light-emitting unit 3 in order to transform voltage from AC (alternating current) into DC (Direct current), thus the instant disclosure can provide DC for the light-emitting unit 3.


Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the light-emitting unit 3 includes a substrate body 30 disposed on the top side of the base body 10, a plurality of blue light emitting groups 31A disposed on the substrate body 30 and electrically connected with the substrate body 30, a plurality of red light emitting groups 31B disposed on the substrate body 30 and electrically connected with the substrate body 30, and a phosphor resin body 32 formed on the substrate body 30 to cover the blue light emitting groups 31A and the red light emitting groups 31B. Moreover, the light-emitting unit 3 further includes a light-reflecting frame 33 disposed on the substrate body 30 and simultaneously surrounding the blue light emitting groups 31A and the red light emitting groups 31B, and the phosphor resin body 32 is surrounded by the light-reflecting frame 33 and contacts the inner surface 330 of the light-reflecting frame 33. In addition, the substrate body 30, the blue light emitting groups 31A, the red light emitting groups 31B, and the phosphor resin body 32 can combined to form the multichip package structure C.


Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, FIG. 3 shows a top, schematic view before covering the light-emitting unit 3 with the phosphor resin body 32. The substrate body 30 has at least two first outer conductive pads 30A electrically connected to the drive IC module 21, and each first outer conductive pad 30A is electrically connected to the blue light emitting groups 31A (each blue light emitting group 31A is defined by the English letter “B” as shown in FIG. 3). The substrate body 30 has at least two second outer conductive pads 30B electrically connected to the drive IC module 21, and each second outer conductive pad 30B is electrically connected to the red light emitting groups 31B (each red light emitting group 31B is defined by the English letter “R” as shown in FIG. 3).


For example, the substrate body 30 may be a circuit substrate having a plurality of conductive tracks (not shown) disposed on the top surface thereof, and the conductive tracks (not shown) can be used as the bridge for electrically connecting each blue light emitting group 31A with the substrate body 30, as the bridge for electrically connecting each red light emitting group 31B with the substrate body 30, as the bridge for electrically connecting each corresponding first outer conductive pad 30A with each corresponding blue light emitting group 31A, and as the bridge for electrically connecting each corresponding second outer conductive pad 30B with each corresponding red light emitting group 31B.


For example, the two first outer conductive pads 30A can be defined as a positive electrode pad and a negative electrode pad, and the two second outer conductive pads 30B can be defined as a positive electrode pad and a negative electrode pad. Hence, when the electric currents are provided to the two first outer conductive pads 30A, the blue light emitting groups 31A can be lighted up at the same time. When the electric currents are provided to the two second outer conductive pads 30B, the red light emitting groups 31B can be lighted up at the same time. In other words, the blue light emitting groups 31A and the red light emitting groups 31B can be selectively lighted up according to different requirement, such as (1) only the blue light emitting groups 31A are lighted up, (2) only the red light emitting groups 31B are lighted up, or (3) the blue light emitting groups 31A and the red light emitting groups 31B are simultaneously lighted up.


Of course, more than two first outer conductive pads 30A can be disposed on the substrate body 30, thus the blue light emitting groups 31A can be selectively lighted up for generating the light-emitting area of different sizes. In other words, the blue light emitting groups 31A can be divided into two illumination units, the two illumination units of the blue light emitting groups 31A can be selectively lighted up simultaneously or respectively for selectively generating the light-emitting area of different sizes. In the same principle, more than two second outer conductive pads 30B can be disposed on the substrate body 30, thus the red light emitting groups 31B can be selectively lighted up for generating the light-emitting area of different sizes. In other words, the red light emitting groups 31B can be divided into two illumination units, the two illumination units of the red light emitting groups 31B can be selectively lighted up simultaneously or respectively for selectively generating the light-emitting area of different sizes. Of course, the blue light emitting groups 31A can be sequentially lighted up, the red light emitting groups 31B can be sequentially lighted up, or the blue light emitting groups 31A and the red light emitting groups 31B can be alternately lighted up, according to different requirements. However, the method for lighting up the blue light emitting groups 31A and the red light emitting groups 31B in the first embodiment is merely an example and is not meant to limit the instant disclosure.


Referring to FIGS. 3 and 6A, FIG. 6A shows a top, schematic view of the single blue light emitting group 31A. Each blue light emitting group 31A includes a first module substrate 310A, a plurality of blue light emitting elements 311A (each blue light emitting elements 311A is defined by the English letter “B” as shown in FIG. 6A) disposed on the first module substrate 310A and electrically connected with each other in series, and at least two first inner conductive pads 312A disposed on the first module substrate 310A and electrically connected to the blue light emitting elements 311A. For example, each first inner conductive pad 312A can be disposed on the top surface of the first module substrate 310A. Each blue light emitting element 311A may be a micro high-voltage blue LED bare chip that can use the high voltage between 40V to 60V, but the high voltage range for each blue light emitting element 311A is not meant to limit the instant disclosure.


Referring to FIGS. 3 and 6B, FIG. 6B shows a top, schematic view of the single red light emitting group 31B. Each red light emitting group 31B includes a second module substrate 310B, a plurality of red light emitting elements 311B (each red light emitting elements 311B is defined by the English letter “R” as shown in FIG. 6B) disposed on the second module substrate 310B and electrically connected with each other in series, and at least two second inner conductive pads 312B disposed on the second module substrate 310B and electrically connected to the red light emitting elements 311B. For example, each second inner conductive pad 312B can be disposed on the top surface of the second module substrate 310B. Each red light emitting element 311B may be a micro high-voltage red LED bare chip that can use the high voltage about 30V, but the high voltage range for each red light emitting element 311B is not meant to limit the instant disclosure.


Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, the light-emitting unit 3 includes a plurality of first conductive elements 34A and a plurality of second conductive elements 34B. Each first conductive element 34A is electrically connected between each corresponding first inner conductive pad 312A and the substrate body 30, and each second conductive element 34B is electrically connected between each corresponding second inner conductive pad 312B and the substrate body 30. For example, each first conductive element 34A may be a metal conductive wire, thus each first conductive element 34A can be electrically connected between each corresponding first inner conductive pad 312A and the substrate body 30 by wire bonding. In addition, each second conductive element 34B may be a metal conductive wire, thus each second conductive element 34B can be electrically connected between each corresponding second inner conductive pad 312B and the substrate body 30 by wire-bonding.


Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, FIG. 5 shows a top, schematic view after covering the light-emitting unit 3 with the phosphor resin body 32. When the phosphor resin body 32 is formed on the substrate body 30 to cover the blue light emitting groups 31A and the red light emitting groups 31B, the phosphor resin body 32 can be surrounded by the light-reflecting frame 33 and contacts the inner surface 330 of the light-reflecting frame 33. For example, the phosphor resin body 32 may be formed by mixing silicone and phosphor powder or by mixing epoxy and phosphor powder. In addition, the substrate body 30, the blue light emitting groups 31A, the red light emitting groups 31B, and the phosphor resin body 32 can combined to form the multichip package structure C.


Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the lamp cover unit 4 includes a light-permitting cover 40 disposed on the top side of the base body 10 to cover the light-emitting unit 3. For example, the bottom portion of the light-permitting cover 40 is mated with the top side of the base body 10, thus the light-permitting cover 40 can be fixed on the base body 10. In addition, the light diffusing particles can be added to the light-permitting cover 40 to increase the luminous uniformity of the light bulb Z.


Second Embodiment

Referring to FIG. 7, the second embodiment of the instant disclosure provides a multichip package structure C. Comparing FIG. 7 with FIG. 5, the difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is as follows: in the second embodiment, each first inner conductive pad 312A is disposed on the bottom surface of the first module substrate 310A, and each second inner conductive pad 312B is disposed on the bottom surface of the second module substrate 310B. For example, each first conductive element 34A may be a solder ball, thus each first conductive element 34A can be electrically connected between each corresponding first inner conductive pad 312A and the substrate body 30 by a flip-chip method. In addition, each second conductive element 34B may be a solder ball, thus each second conductive element 34B can be electrically connected between each corresponding second inner conductive pad 312B and the substrate body 30 by a flip-chip method.


In conclusion, the high-voltage blue light emitting elements (the micro high-voltage blue LED bare chips) and the high-voltage red light emitting elements (the micro high-voltage red LED bare chips) are used in the multichip package structure and the light bulb, thus the light-emitting efficiency of the multichip package structure and the light bulb can be increased.
