Abstract
A light emitting device array comprises a plurality of light emitting diode (LED) strings connected in parallel to each other, each of which includes a plurality of light emitting devices connected in series. A sum of forward voltages (Vf) of a plurality of light emitting devices included in at least one LED string among the plurality of LED strings is less than that of forward voltages of a plurality of light emitting devices included in a different LED string. The at least one LED string includes a voltage compensation unit, to compensate for a difference in forward voltage levels between the at least one LED string and the different LED string.
