| Title: |
Mounting Arrangement For Light Emitting Diodes |
| Abstract: |
A modular light emitting diode (LED) mounting configuration is provided
including a light source module having a plurality of pre-packaged LEDs
arranged in a serial array. The module includes a heat conductive body
portion adapted to conduct heat generated by the LEDs to an adjacent heat
sink. As a result, the LEDs are able to be operated with a higher current
than normally allowed. Thus, brightness and performance of the LEDs is
increased without decreasing the life expectancy of the LEDs. The LED
modules can be used in a variety of illumination applications employing
one or more modules.
