20130114174 | ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PROTECTION FOR ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS, DEVICES INCLUDING SUCH PROTECTION AND METHODS FOR MAKING THE SAME - Systems and methods for protecting electrical components such as light emitting diodes are described. In some embodiments, electrical components are protected from high level electrostatic discharge (“ESD”) events by a circuit board that provides an intrinsic level of ESD protection. At the same time, such electrical components are protected against low level ESD events by one or more diodes that are electrically coupled thereto. The one or more diodes may be thin film diodes comprising at least one layer of p-type semiconductive material and at least one layer of n-type semiconductive material. Devices including ESD protection and methods for manufacturing such devices are also described. | 05-09-2013 |
20130313603 | Wavelength Converter for an LED, Method of Making, and LED Containing Same - A wavelength converter for an LED is described that comprises a substrate of monocrystalline garnet having a cubic crystal structure, a first lattice parameter and an oriented crystal face. An epitaxial layer is formed directly on the oriented crystal face of the substrate. The layer is comprised of a monocrystalline garnet phosphor having a cubic crystal structure and a second lattice parameter that is different from the first lattice parameter wherein the difference between the first lattice parameter and the second lattice parameter results in a lattice mismatch within a range of ±15%. The strain induced in the phosphor layer by the lattice mismatch shifts the emission of the phosphor to longer wavelengths when a tensile strain is induced and to shorter wavelengths when a compressive strain is induced. Preferably, the wavelength converter is mounted on the light emitting surface of a blue LED to produce an LED light source. | 11-28-2013 |
20140335635 | ELECTRONIC ASSEMBLIES INCLUDING A SUBASSEMBLY FILM AND METHODS OF PRODUCING THE SAME - Described herein are electronic assemblies including a subassembly film and methods for making the same. In some embodiments, a first subassembly is formed by placing an electronic die at a die placement location on a subassembly film. A second subassembly may be formed by placing the first subassembly at a subassembly placement position on a base layer, such that electrical contacts/traces on the first film overlap with electrical contacts/traces at a subassembly connection point on the base layer. Placement of the die on the subassembly film may be performed with automatic placement machinery that has a placement accuracy that is greater than that required to place the first subassembly on the base layer. As a result, the costly and time consuming manual inspection of die placement may be avoided. | 11-13-2014 |
20150062838 | SYSTEM FOR ATTACHING DEVICES TO FLEXIBLE SUBSTRATES - This disclosure is directed to a system for attaching devices to flexible substrates. A device may be coupled to a flexible substrate in a manner that prevents adhesive from contacting conductive ink while the adhesive is harmful. If conductive epoxy is used to anchor conductive pads in the device to the flexible substrate, conductive epoxy may be applied beyond the edge of the device over which conductive ink may be applied to make electrical connections. Holes may also be formed in the flexible substrate allowing conductive epoxy to be exposed on a surface of the flexible substrate opposite to the device location, the conductive ink connections being made on the opposite surface. The conductive ink may also be applied directly to the conductive pads when extended beyond the device's edge. The flexible substrate may be pre-printed with circuit paths, the conductive ink coupling the device to the circuit paths. | 03-05-2015 |
