Description

Light Emitting Diode Lamp with Built-in Converter {LED lamp}

LEDs have high efficiency for converting power into light, and are widely used for displays and indicators. Recently, due to the development of a blue LED and a white LED that can supply white light by using a fluorescent material having an emission spectrum corresponding to red and green, research on the use of the LED as an illumination is being actively conducted.

Compared to incandescent lamps and fluorescent lamps, which are currently used, the efficiency of light is much higher than that of unit power, and the economic efficiency is excellent. Moreover, the amount of light can be obtained even at low voltage. It is a trend.

In particular, with the development of white LEDs, the luminous brightness represented by the unit output is gradually improved, which solves the problem of lack of brightness, and white luminous LEDs whose luminous brightness exceeds the luminous brightness of traditional incandescent light bulbs have already been commercialized. The commercialization of white light LEDs will soon be realized.

However, even when using LEDs for lighting, there is a limit to the amount of light that can be obtained through one LED, and thus it is difficult to obtain enough light as desired. Therefore, a large number of LEDs are needed to obtain enough light for lighting. The lamp should be used. In this case, it is more economical to use as few LEDs as possible by flowing more current per unit LED since the more economically the more LEDs are used, the lower the economics are.

In addition, while the LED has a high efficiency of converting power to light, the light emitting part is made of a semiconductor device, which is relatively weak to heat compared to light emitting devices such as incandescent lamps using filaments or fluorescent lamps using cathode rays. In other words, the LED is easily degraded due to thermal stress caused by its own heat generated from the light emitting device when the LED is used for a long time, thereby degrading its performance. Therefore, in order to send a large amount of current to the LED, a heat dissipation structure for effectively dissipating heat generated therefrom becomes a very important factor. Therefore, the poor heat radiation effect is an important problem of the current LED for use in lighting.
