ABSTRACT:
A light emitting diode (LED) assembly has a printed circuit board, multiple conductors and multiple light emitting diodes (LEDs). The printed circuit board has multiple mounting holes. The conductors are mounted on the PCB and serve respectively as positive electrode conductors and negative electrode conductors. Each conductor has a contact pin and at least one through hole with an inner edge. Each LED is mounted on the positive electrode conductor and the negative electrode conductor and has a die and two contact tabs. Each contact tab has a through hole having an inner edge and multiple hooks extending from the inner edge of the through hole in the contact tab and hooking the inner edge of the at least one through hole in the conductor. Consequently, neither solder nor welding is required to assemble the LED assembly.
