Abstract
Light emitting die () comprising a plurality of light emitting elements (310A, 310B), each having a pair of bond pads (NPand NP), wherein at least two diagonally opposite bond pads of adjacent light emitting elements on a die have their facing corners truncated () to enable a direct diagonal coupling of a complementary pair of diagonally opposite bond pads when the die is monted on a substrate on which an interconnection pattern is formed. By enabling diagonal as well as lateral coupling of the bond pads of multiple light emitting elements of a die, the multiple light emitting elements may be arranged in a variety of series and/or parallel configurations, thereby facilitating the use of the same die at different nominal operating voltages with a single interconnect layer on the substrate upon which the die is mounted.
