COMPACT LED LAMP
First Claim
1. An illumination assembly comprising:
- a substrate having a plurality of light emitting areas disposed on said substrate, said plurality of light emitting areas being separated by at least a first distance, wherein each light emitting area of said plurality of light emitting areas has a plurality of semiconductor dies directly mounted on said substrate, each semiconductor die of said plurality of semiconductor dies being separated by at least a second distance, wherein said first distance is substantially greater than said second distance, further wherein direct mounting of said semiconductor dies on said substrate reduces at least one of a thermal resistance and a height of said illumination assembly; and
a single piece optic element disposed over said plurality of light emitting areas on said substrate, said single piece optic element being configured to direct light emitted from said plurality of light emitting areas in a cone of light.

Abstract
The invention provides an illumination assembly and an illumination assembly based lamp. The illumination assembly includes a substrate that has a plurality of light emitting areas, such that each of the light emitting area includes a group of two or more semiconductor dies that are directly mounted on the substrate. Further, a light emitting area is separated by a first distance from another light emitting area and each semiconductor die in a light emitting area is separated by a second distance from another semiconductor die in the same light emitting area, such that the first distance is substantially greater than the second distance. Furthermore, the illumination assembly also includes a single piece optic element disposed over the plurality of light emitting areas, such that the single piece optic element is configured to direct light emitted from all the light emitting areas in a cone of light.
