An LED assembly includes a heat sink and a submount. The heat sink has a top mating surface that is solder wettable, and the submount has a bottom mating surface that is solder wettable. The top and the bottom mating surfaces have substantially the same shape and area. The submount is soldered atop the heat sink. During solder reflow, the molten solder causes the submount to align with the top mating surface of the heat sink. The LED assembly may further include a substrate having a top mating surface, and the heat sink may further include a bottom mating surface. The top and bottom mating surfaces have substantially the same shape and area. The heat sink is soldered atop the substrate. During solder reflow, the molten solder causes the heat sink to align with the top mating surface of the substrate.

Accurate alignment of an LED assembly

A device includes a submount, and a semiconductor light emitting device mounted on first and second conductive regions on a first side of the submount in a flip chip architecture configuration. The submount has third and fourth conductive regions on a second side of the submount. The third and fourth conductive regions may be used to solder the submount to structure such as a board, without the use of wire bonds. The first and third conductive regions are electrically connected by a first conductive layer and the second and fourth conductive regions are electrically connected by a second conductive layer. The first and second conductive layers may be disposed on the outside of the submount or within the submount.
