Abstract
A disclosed lighting apparatus includes a flex-circuit, a frame, and a light-diffusive panel. The flex-circuit includes a power bus having first and second portion of opposite polarity disposed parallel to outer edges of the flex-circuit, and solid-state lighting (SSL) elements disposed and connected between the portions of the power bus. A first side of the frame includes a first surface to which a portion of the flex-circuit having the first portion of the power bus is attached, a second surface to which a portion of the flex-circuit having the SSL elements is attached, and a third surface to which a portion of the flex-circuit having the second portion of the power bus is attached. A face of the light-diffusive panel abuts the first surface of the frame, and side of the light-diffusive panel faces the second surface of the frame and light emitting portions of the SSL elements.
