Abstract
The present invention relates to a lighting device (). The lighting device comprises a light source (), a circuit board () configured to control the light source, and a circuit board frame () comprising a slot (). Further, an edge () of the circuit board is mounted in the slot such that the circuit board is in thermal contact with the circuit board frame, thereby enabling heat to be conducted from the circuit board to the circuit board frame. The present invention is advantageous in that the thermal performance of the lighting device is improved and manufacturing costs are reduced.
