First Claim
Patent Images
1. A light-emitting diode comprising:
- a light-emitting diode die for emitting light and having a first terminal and a second terminal, a lead frame comprising a first lead frame portion and a second lead frame portion, the first lead frame portion being electrically coupled to the first terminal and the second lead frame portion being electrically coupled to the second terminal, a reflector cup comprising a body made of a plastic material having an inner surface facing the light-emitting diode die and an outer surface facing outwards from the light-emitting diode die, the reflector cup being arranged to reflect light emitted from the light-emitting diode die away from the light-emitting diode die, and a dome encapsulating at least the light-emitting diode die and the reflector cup, the dome being made of a material which is at least partially transparent for light emitted from the light-emitting diode die.

15. A light-emitting diode comprising:
-
a light-emitting diode die for emitting light and having a first terminal and a second terminal, a lead frame comprising a first lead frame portion and a second lead frame portion, the first lead frame portion being electrically coupled to the first terminal and the second lead frame portion being electrically coupled to the second terminal, a reflector comprising a body having an inner surface facing the light-emitting diode die and an outer surface facing off the light-emitting diode die, the reflector being arranged to reflect light emitted from the light-emitting diode die, and a dome encapsulating at least the light-emitting diode die and the reflector, the dome being made of a material which is at least partially transparent for light emitted from the light-emitting diode die, wherein the body of the reflector is made of a plastic material, and the outer surface of the body of the reflector is coated with a reflective coating and shaped so that the reflective coating coated thereon reflects light emitted from the light-emitting diode die away from the light-emitting diode die.
