Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily avoid the electrostatic breakdown, by providing a support board for supporting terminal conductors, making the support board of a resistive material having a lower resistivity than that of air, and specifying the resistance value of the support board between the terminal conductors. SOLUTION: A light emitting diode 1a has a light emitting diode chip 2 as a semiconductor chip, rod-like metal leads 3, 4 as a first and a second terminal conductors and light-permeable resin seal 5, first and second thin metal lead wires 14, 15, and a resistive support board 17 as an envelope. The support board 17 has a low conductivity, resistance of 50 kΩ-50 MΩ between the leads 3, 4 and a resistivity less than that of the air and seal 5. This prevents a high energy from breaking the diode chip 2 and protects it from the electrostatic charge.

By the way, when a charged object such as a human body comes into contact with the lead 3 or 4, the chip 2 of the light emitting diode 1 may be electrostatically damaged. This means that the first and second electrodes 1 of the light-emitting diode chip 2 are arranged close to each other and are open.
This occurs because a high voltage of static electricity is applied between 0 and 11, and as a result, a high voltage is applied to the pn junction of the semiconductor substrate 9. This destruction due to static electricity is particularly likely to occur in GaN light emitting diodes, but may also occur in other semiconductor devices.
