1. A light source comprising:
- a single, continuous board having a first surface and a second surface which is an opposite side with respect to the first surface, the first and second surfaces being flat;
a plurality of light-emitting diodes mounted on mounting positions of the first surface of the board such that the diodes overlap the board when viewed in a first direction perpendicular to the first and second surfaces of the board; and
a thermal diffusion layer disposed on the second surface of the board and including portions corresponding to the mounting positions of the light-emitting diodes, the thermal diffusion layer having a thickness less than a thickness of the board in the first direction perpendicular to the first and second surfaces of the board,wherein the portions of the thermal diffusion layer overlap the second surface of the board when viewed in a second direction perpendicular to the first and second surfaces of the board, the second direction being opposite to the first direction,wherein elongated spaces are formed between the portions of the thermal diffusion layer and disposed on a second surface side of the board, each of the elongated spaces extending in directions so as to cross imaginary lines that connect adjacent ones of the portions to each other, andwherein the thermal diffusion layer is not formed in the elongated spaces.

Abstract
A lamp includes an outer shell having heat conductivity, a base provided in the outer shell, and a cover provided in the outer shell. The outer shell has a light source support, and a heat radiating surface exposed to the outside of the outer shell. The light source support is formed integral with the heat radiating surface. A light source is supported on the light source support. The light source is heated during lighting, and thermally connected to the light source support. The light source is covered with the cover.

7. A lamp comprising:
-
a light source support; and a light source which is supported on the light source support, the light source comprising; a board having a first surface and a second surface which is an opposite side with respect to the first surface; a plurality of light-emitting diodes mounted on mounting positions of the first surface of the board such that the diodes overlap the board when viewed in a first direction perpendicular to the first and second surfaces of the board; and a thermal diffusion layer disposed on the second surface of the board and including portions corresponding to the mounting positions of the light-emitting diodes, wherein the portions of the thermal diffusion layer overlap the second surface of the board when viewed in a second direction perpendicular to the first and second surfaces of the board, the second direction being opposite to the first direction, wherein elongated spaces are formed between the portions of the thermal diffusion layer on the second surface of the board, each of the elongated spaces extending in directions so as to cross imaginary lines that connect adjacent ones of the portions to each other, and wherein the thermal diffusion layer is not formed in the elongated spaces.
