Abstract
A horizontal LED die is flip-chip mounted on a mounting substrate to define a gap that extends between the closely spaced apart anode and cathode contacts of the LED die, and between the closely spaced apart anode and cathode pads of the substrate. An encapsulant is provided on the light emitting diode die and the mounting substrate. The gap is configured to prevent sufficient encapsulant from entering the gap that would degrade operation of the LED.
