Abstract
A packaged light emitting device 100 that allows enhanced light cutoff in lighting applications to better control glare and optimize lumen output. Packaged device 100 includes both a reflective dam region 34 and a non-reflective dam region 36 to increase output of useful light while mitigating reflection of light that can cause glare. An array 4, preferably linear, of light-emitting diodes 3 is formed on printed circuit board (PCB) 1, and surrounded by dam 30 which bounds encapsulant 40. A first circuit board portion 20 of PCB upper surface 2 enclosed within dam 30 disposed forward of LED array 4 and adjoining non-reflective dam portion 36 is non-reflective, such as being black. A second circuit board portion 22 is reflective, such as being white. Packaged device 100 is suited for automotive headlights and fog lights.
