Abstract

A light emitting module includes a circuit board, a reflective layer, at least one light emitting chip and at least one metal wire. The circuit board has at least one connecting pad. The reflective layer is disposed on the circuit board and has at least one first opening exposing the connecting pad and at least one second opening exposing the circuit board. The light emitting chip is located in the second opening. The metal wire has a first end portion connecting to the connecting pad and a second end portion extending from the first end portion and crossing above the reflective layer and electrically connecting to the light emitting chip in the second opening. Consequently, the reflective layer can extend close to the light emitting chip and maximize the covered area of the reflective layer, and thus increase the light emitting efficiency of the light emitting module.
