LED backlight device with deviated LED pitch
First Claim
1. A backlight unit for use in a liquid crystal display, comprising:
- a substrate;
a first plurality of light emitting elements positioned on the substrate, whereinthe first plurality of light emitting elements are arranged in a plurality of rows, such that two neighboring rows define a first pitch therebetween; and
a second plurality of light emitting elements positioned on the substrate and arranged in a row such that the row of the second plurality of light emitting elements is separated from the closest neighboring row of the first plurality of light emitting elements by a second pitch;
wherein the first pitch is less than the second pitch.
