A solid state light engine includes a bridge rectifier having a rectified output. At least one light emitting diode (LED) is connected to the bridge rectifier, the at least one LED including a die portion, a layer of phosphor free resin positioned upon the die portion, and a plurality of phosphor particles adhered to the layer of phosphor free resin. A pair of AC power input terminals are electrically connected to the input of the bridge rectifier for use in coupling the bridge rectifier to an AC power source. A pair of DC power input terminals are connected to the rectified output of the bridge rectifier for use in coupling the bridge rectifier to a circuit productive of a DC voltage at the pair of DC power terminals. The layer of phosphor free resin includes a polymeric resin.

Solid state LED bridge rectifier light engine

A solid-state light engine comprised of light emitting diodes (LEDs) configured into a bridge rectifier with a current limiting module coupled to the LED bridge rectifier. The light engine may be packaged for high temperature operation. Optionally, the LEDs comprise wavelength-converting phosphors with a persistence that is a multiple of the peak to peak current period, to smooth and mask ripple frequency pulsation of emitted light.

A display backlight assembly providing improved optical coupling between a solid state light source and a display optical light guide. The assembly includes an optical coupler to couple the solid state light source and display optical light guide together. In addition, the optical coupler may include a light mixing element for improved mixing of the multi-colored or mono-chromatic light produced by the solid state light source.
