A carrier of one or more light sources for a lighting and/or signaling module especially for an automotive vehicle, comprising: a substrate having at least one aperture and electrical tracks on at least one side; and at least one light-emitting diode (LED) having a body and electrical connection leads lateral to the body. The LED or at least one of the LEDs is placed through a respective aperture of the substrate, and the connection leads make contact with respective electrical tracks. The substrate is a rigid molded part having a three-dimensional shape possibly providing an optical function such as that of a reflector. In this case, the LEDs are directly supported by the optical part.

Carrier of one or more light-emitting diodes (LEDS) for a signaling module

A support for light source(s) for a lighting and/or light signaling module for a motor vehicle, comprising a substrate of thermally conductive material, preferentially of metallic material, at least one light source of the light-emitting or laser diode type with a face for mounting on the substrate, in thermal contact therewith and an electrical power supply circuit for the light source or sources. The power supply circuit is linked electrically with the light source or sources by means of metal wires soldered on the surface by the technology commonly referred to by the expression 'wire bonding'. The measures of the invention make it possible to define at least one reception plane for the light sources oriented in such a way as to avoid having components in the vicinity of the light sources casting shadows thereon.
