- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide an LED arrangement which arranges individual LEDs as compactly as possible in the simplest possible way
- An LED arrangement according to the invention has a substrate, an electrically conductive first current connection region arranged on the substrate, one on the substrate

- a respective LED group can have at least one LED which is arranged on an edge region of the entirety of the LED groups. Then there is no further adjacent LED of the LED arrangement on this LED located at the edge region, at least on one side.
- a respective transition area is the
- LEDs is electrically conductively connected and, apart from the second power connection region, a respective transition region can be electrically conductively connected to a second LED contact region of one of the LEDs arranged at the edge region of an adjacent LED group, so that the plurality of LED groups are connected in series ,
- An LED group can generally comprise only a single LED or several LEDs. According to the LED arrangement according to the invention, all LEDs of a common LED group have the same potential, since they are all arranged on the same coating area. The respective ones are now advantageous Coating areas spatially separated from each other
- connection can also be made in a contact trench running within the LED arrangement
- This advantageous arrangement principle of the LEDs or the LED groups provided by the invention advantageously also provides an arrangement pattern which can be scaled as desired, so that depending on the application and requirement
- the invention enables particularly small current-to-voltage ratios to be achieved, even with a very large number of LEDs, which is why such an LED arrangement can also be provided in a particularly simple and cost-effective manner, since the individual conductor tracks and other components required can be designed for significantly lower currents.
- the invention can be a special one compact LED arrangement can be provided in a particularly simple and inexpensive manner.
- the LEDs can be any organic light emitting diode
- micro LEDs for example, micro LEDs, QLEDs, organic light-emitting diode
- the LEDs are preferably designed at least in such a way that the first contact area is arranged on an underside of the LED, while the second
- the arrangement can be made available in a particularly compact and optimized manner. It is particularly advantageous if the LEDs are high-current LED chips, since they enable particularly high luminance levels to be provided. Even those
- High-current LEDs usually have the first contact area on a lower side, while the second contact area on the upper side opposite the lower side
- a power supply for the LED arrangement can be provided via the first and the second power connection area.
- the second power connection area which represents one of the transition areas, should be understood such that this transition area is quasi an excellent or
- transition areas that can be coupled to a power connector in any way.
- a further one that is spatially separated from the coating areas can also be used
- an electrically conductive connection for example a wire, a line, bond wires, or the like
- Transition area can be connected.
- this one is also determined in this case Transition area referred to as the power connection area, in particular as the second power connection area.
- These two power connection areas preferably represent the only power connection areas via which the LED arrangement can be supplied with current. This is particularly advantageous for applications in which individual LEDs or LED groups are not intended to be separately controllable, but are sufficient if only all LEDs of the arrangement can be controlled simultaneously and in the same way, ie can be switched on and off or dimmed in the same way. This allows the structure to be greatly simplified and, above all, the effort involved in cable routing and contacting is enormous
- Power connection areas are arranged, in particular made of an electrically insulating material for
- Example comprising aluminum nitrite, aluminum oxide, etc.
- a so-called FR4 circuit board can also be used as the substrate, which consists of a heavy
- Glass fiber fabric can be formed. Alternatively, as
- Printed circuit board can also be a printed circuit board with a metal core or “metal core (MC)”
- Coating areas and the power connection areas can be provided in a simple manner, for example, by a metallic coating on the substrate.
- an LED group which is closest in relation to a predetermined direction of rotation, ie viewed, for example, clockwise or counterclockwise.
- an LED group can only have a single LED.
- each of the LED groups has a plurality of the LEDs.
- LED arrangements with a particularly large number of LEDs can advantageously be provided, which enables very high luminance levels in an extremely small installation space.
- the second LED contact areas of all LEDs of a respective common LED group are preferably also connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner. This means that the first LED contact areas of all LEDs of a respective common LED group are now above those assigned to this LED group
- each LED group has the same number of LEDs. This allows all LEDs to be supplied with the same current in a simple manner, which provides a homogeneous and uniform appearance.
- all LEDs of a respective common LED group are arranged in a row.
- Such a linear arrangement advantageously makes it possible to enormously simplify the contacting of the second LED contact areas and thereby also to achieve a very flat structure, which will be explained in more detail later.
- the LED groups are arranged in several rows and / or in several columns with respect to one another. This means that an LED matrix can be created
- At least the transition regions different from the second connection region are angled so that they each have a first partial region that extends away from the edge region, and an angle to the first partial region, in particular at a right angle,
- the distance to be bridged by a corresponding contacting element between the second LED contact area of the LED and the relevant transition area, to which the second LED contact area is electrically conductively connected, can be minimized as a result and the contacting can thus be provided in a particularly simple manner.
- the connection effort can thus advantageously be further reduced.
- At least the transition areas different from the second connection area are all angled in the same direction, for example all clockwise or all counterclockwise with respect to a top view of the LED arrangement.
- the respective LED groups can be specified in a particularly simple manner
- the two power connection areas are assigned to two LED groups which are arranged adjacent to one another. This allows a particularly simple construction to be implemented and, in particular, to ensure that conductor tracks do not cross.
- the series connection can then, for example, start from the first power connection area against the
- Power connection area represents the closest counterclockwise neighbor to the second power connection area. If this is reversed, the series connection can be started from the first power connection area clockwise around the entirety of the LED groups to the second
- connection area in an equally simple way.
- the LEDs of the respective LED group located at the edge area which are electrically conductively connected to the transition area of the coating area assigned to the adjacent LED group, are arranged in such a way that at least part of the respective second LED contact area is arranged at the edge area.
- the second LED contact areas of all LEDs of a respective common LED group are connected to one another by an electrically conductive flat element which has a height which is less than its length and at most as large as its width or less than its width.
- an electrically conductive flat element which has a height which is less than its length and at most as large as its width or less than its width.
- the flat element is the flat element as
- the height can be one or even several orders of magnitude lower
- Wires or strands can also be used to connect the contact areas, as is described in more detail below.
- their height is at least smaller, in particular by orders of magnitude, than their length, and can in particular be as large as their width. This enables a particularly flat structure to be achieved for the entire LED arrangement. In particular, this allows
- the electrically conductive flat element is designed such that it extends in a straight line over all second contact areas of the LEDs of the common LED group. It is also advantageous if the flat element is also at the edge area in the direction of
- Transition area of the coating area runs and is connected to it in an electrically conductive manner, which is assigned to one of the adjacent LED groups.
- Flat element can thus advantageously not only be used to make contact with the second LED contact areas, but also to establish the connection between the second contact area of the outer LED of an LED group and the corresponding transition area. In this way, too, bond wires can advantageously be avoided again in order to produce this contacting, and a particularly flat structure can be realized.
- Transition area of the adjacent LED group bond wires, i.e. corresponding bond wires by wire bonding
- the second LED contact areas of the LEDs of at least one common LED group are electrically conductively connected to one another by at least one strand which extends essentially in a straight line over all second contact areas of the LEDs of the common LED group.
- Several, for example parallel, strands can also be used to contact these second LED contact areas. Due to their straight course, in turn
- the contact areas of the LEDs are particularly easy to implement.
- the respective flat elements and / or strands together with the LEDs are preferably integrated in one step
- Coupling of the light emitted by the LED arrangement can be achieved in a subsequent optics.
- a flat structure of the LED arrangement allows a particularly small distance between a light emission surface of the LEDs and a light coupling surface of the optics, which has advantages with regard to the amount of light that can be collected by the optics.
- the bridging connections are to be covered
- the bridging connections are preferably made in such a way that the respective connection lengths are as short as possible and do not exceed a maximum length of approximately 3 mm.
- connection can also be made indirectly by placing and contacting the connection on the closer LED and then continuing and contacting the more distant LED.
- the connection can also be made indirectly by placing and contacting the connection on the closer LED and then continuing and contacting the more distant LED.
- transition regions which are part of the conductive coating regions, are mutually arranged in the contacting trench for the respective LED group.
- Contact trench is preferably less than 0.7 mm, better less than 0.6 mm or 0.5 mm wide and should therefore only make up a fraction of the LED dimensions.
- the LED arrangements according to the present invention are particularly suitable for generating monochromatic light. Relevant wavelength ranges can be in the
- the light source can be a white light source.
- Imaging optical systems in which a high luminance is required. These can be projection applications or general applications where light has to be focused on a small area.
- Other applications are curing or curing applications (e.g. 3D printing, light distribution via DMD) and lithography with low resolution e.g. for the production of PCBs (e.g. light distribution via DMD).
- the special one is a curing or curing applications (e.g. 3D printing, light distribution via DMD) and lithography with low resolution e.g. for the production of PCBs (e.g. light distribution via DMD).

- Fig. 2 shows
- the LED 10 has one
- the LED 10 has an electrically conductive first LED contact area 12 and an electrically conductive second LED contact area 14. These two LED contact areas 12, 14 are arranged on the opposite side of the LED 10, the second LED contact area 14 in particular being on the side of the LED 10 on which the light-emitting area 10a is also located, while the first LED contact area 12 is arranged on the underside of the LED 10, ie the side opposite the light-emitting region 10a. This first led The contact area 12 preferably extends over the entire underside of the LED 10.
- the second LED contact area 14 extends only over a partial area of the top of the LED 10, for example as shown here in strip form on an edge area of the light-emitting area 10a, or for example in another area, such as only in a corner area of the LED 10, or the like.
- the LED 10 is preferably a high-current LED chip, since such a
- High-current LED chip can provide particularly high luminance levels, which is particularly advantageous for the preferred application areas of these LED arrangements 22.
- the LEDs 10 can each be any LED
- FIG. 3 shows a schematic representation of a top view of an electrically insulating but preferably thermally highly conductive substrate 16 with a substrate 16 arranged thereon
- Coating areas 18 and two power connection areas 20a, 20b for an LED arrangement 22 according to one
- the LED arrangement 22 comprises a plurality of LED groups 24.
- a respective LED group 24 in this case comprises at least one LED 10, in this example three LEDs 10 each.
- Exactly one coating area 18 is assigned to a respective LED group 24.
- the LED arrangement 22 comprises six coating regions 18 made of an electrically conductive material that are spatially separated from one another.
- a respective coating area 18 is further divided into a contact area 18a and a transition area 18b.
- the LEDs 10 of a respective LED Group 24 are associated with their respective first LED contact areas 12 in contacting manner on the contact area 18a of their respective LED group 24
- transition regions 18b of the coating regions 18 themselves are thus arranged so as to protrude beyond an edge area 26 of the entirety of the LED groups 24, this edge area 26 being illustrated in FIG. 3 by a dashed line, that is to say the totality of the arrangement of all LEDs 10 of the LED arrangement 24 in FIG illustrated top view of the
- the LED arrangement 24 also comprises two current connection regions 20a, 20b, namely a positive first current connection region 20a, which is different from the others
- Coating areas 18 is also spatially separated, and a second negative power connection area 20b, which is also a transition area 18b one of the
- Transition areas 18b should be understood to mean that this is only in any way with a
- Power connection can be coupled. For this can be
- second power connection area 20b ' (Further) second power connection area 20b '(see FIG. 4) can be provided, which then determines this electrically via an electrically conductive connection 28', for example a wire, a line, bond wires, or the like
- Transition area 18b, 20b can be connected.
- this particular transition area 18b is also used in this case as the power connection area 20b,
- a respective LED group 24 also has at least one LED 10, which is arranged on the edge region 26.
- the contacting can thus be carried out in a simple manner via this LED 10 to the adjacent LED group 24 or the first
- connection area 20a The interconnection of the LEDs with one another is also shown in particular in FIG. 4. These contacting connections are designated 28 in FIG. 4. On the one hand, such connections 28 connect the second LED contact areas 14 of the LEDs 10 of a common LED group 24 to one another in an electrically conductive manner, and on the other hand, via such a connection 28, the second LED contact area 14 of the LED 10 arranged at the edge area 26 is also one respective LED group 24 with that assigned to an adjacent LED group 24
- Transition area 18b connected which is the case for all LED groups 24 except for one in which the at least one LED 10 arranged on the edge area 26 is connected to the first
- Power connection area 20a is connected.
- the LEDs 10 can be constructed as described in relation to FIGS. 1 and 2 and in this case have their second LED contact area 14 arranged opposite the substrate 16, for reasons of clarity only one such second LED contact area 14 being provided with a reference symbol is.
- Such an LED arrangement 22 can be used
- Common LED groups 24 are connected in parallel to one another, since both their respective first LED contact areas 12 are connected to one another by way of their coupling via the respective contact areas 18a of the respective coating areas 18, and their respective second LED contact areas 14 are connected via the connections 28, and thus have the same potential.
- the series connection or series connection of the individual LED groups 24 advantageously advantageously significantly reduces the total current required to operate the LEDs 10, in particular
- an LED 10 has a current of 3 A (amperes), and if each LED group 24, as is shown, for example, in FIG. 4, has three LEDs 10, the total current required for this entire LED arrangement results 22 of 9 A. If, for example, more or fewer than the six LED groups 24 shown here are provided, the total current required would not change.
- the invention and its refinements thus advantageously make it possible to also operate LED arrangements 22 with a very high number of LEDs 10 with relatively low total currents. This has the great advantage that the LED arrangement 22 can be designed in a significantly simpler and more cost-effective manner, since, for example, all current-carrying lines and coatings can be designed for significantly lower currents, as well as optional further ones that are coupled or coupled to the LED arrangement 22 connectable electrical or electronic components.
- Another particularly great advantage of the invention and its refinements lies precisely in the fact that this arrangement makes it possible, despite the series connection of the respective LED groups 24, to arrange the individual LEDs 10 extremely compactly with respect to one another. This is made possible above all by contacting the LED groups 24
- Edge area 26 or extending beyond it and all around is realized, in particular by the transition areas 18b arranged around the arrangement of the LEDs 10, so that advantageously such contacting areas do not have to be arranged between the individual LEDs.
- the individual LEDs 10 can thus be arranged very close to one another, ideally even in an impact.
- this arrangement concept can be expanded, reduced and modified in any way, depending on the situation
- This LED matrix 30 now has several rows and columns, in particular n rows and m columns.
- the rows extend in the direction labeled R, while the columns extend in the direction labeled S.
- the arrangement of the coating areas 18 and the power connection areas 20a, 20b on the substrate 16 associated with this LED matrix 30 is shown in FIG. 6.
- the LED matrix 30 thus has eight LED groups 24, with a respective LED group 24 each having three LEDs 10. Two LED groups 24 are arranged side by side in a respective row.
- the total current I required for this arrangement results from the number of LEDs 10 per LED group 24, multiplied by the current 10 for a single LED 10. Since in this arrangement a respective LED group 24 therefore has exactly half as many LEDs 10 as arranged in a row, the total current I required is as follows:
- the required total voltage U results from the required voltage U0 for a single LED 10
- This arrangement can also be extended in any direction in the direction R of the rows A. This can
- each LED row then comprises exactly two LED groups 24, but then a respective LED group 24 then has, for example, four LEDs 10 or five LEDs 10 or six LEDs 10, etc.
- the formulas for calculating the total current I and the total voltage U remain unchanged and continue to apply.
- This scheme therefore offers any expansion options and thus a particularly high degree of flexibility.
- Power connection areas 20a, 20b for an LED arrangement 22 according to a further exemplary embodiment of the invention.
- Power connection areas 18, 20a, 20b are suitable, for example, for the LED matrix 30 shown in FIG. 5.
- the arrangement of these LEDs 10 according to this LED matrix 30 shown in FIG. 5 on the respectively assigned coating areas 18 is shown schematically in FIG. 7 in a top view. For reasons of clarity, only one is shown in FIG. 7 Individual LED 10 is provided with a reference symbol, and also only a single connection 28. Moreover, this LED arrangement 22 is designed as described in relation to FIG. 4, except for the difference that it is shown in FIG. 7
- Example, the LED arrangement 22 now has eight LED groups 24, each with three LEDs 10, while the LED arrangement 22 is off
- LED groups 24 each with three LEDs 10.
- the series connection of the individual LED groups 24 is also advantageously implemented in this example shown in FIG. 7 via the transition regions 18b surrounding the arrangement, each of which has an edge region 26
- LEDs 10 are one
- common LED group 24 are arranged so that their respective second LED contact areas 14 lie on a straight line, since this is the contacting of the LEDs 10
- a respective LED group has 24 only a single LED 10 on.
- Six LED groups 24, each with exactly one LED 10, are thus provided. For the rest, the contact can also be made here again as described above.
- FIG. 10 shows a schematic illustration of a plan view of a substrate 16 with arranged thereon
- the formation of the contact areas 18a without such cutouts 32 makes it possible to arrange the respective LEDs 10 of a respective group 24 in a floating manner on the respective coating areas 18 and thereby to further minimize the distances between the respective LEDs 10.
- these can also be arranged in an abutting manner, that is to say that they even touch at least in part.
- each LED group 24 can comprise any number of LEDs 10. However, it is preferred that each LED group 24 has the same number of LEDs. The possible embodiments are therefore not limited to the examples shown here. Any of these
- Fig. 12 shows a schematic and perspective
- connections 28 are realized, which in this example are designed as two rectilinear, electrically conductive strands 36.
- these connections 28 can provide a particularly flat structure, in particular in contrast to the use of bond wires.
