A light device may include a printed circuit board having at least one conductive section. An LED may be electrically connected and fixed on a conductive section of the printed circuit board by means of a soldered connection. The printed circuit board may also include a coating-type insulating layer and/or the conductive section has an edge. The fixing region of the LED is connected to a discharge space by means of an outlet, so that during the production process, melted solder can flow off in a defined manner. The arrangement and/or embodiment of the outlet is such that in a preferred direction of movement of the LED is developed in order to position same in a defined manner.

An illumination device for a vehicle is provided, and includes an optical device such as a reflector, with a dome and with a positioning pin. A light emitting assembly is also included with a printed circuit board and a semiconductor light source such as a light emitting diode. The light emitting assembly comprises a bracket with at least one spring for exerting a pretension force on the dome of the optical device. The printed circuit board comprises a positioning hole for receiving the positioning pin and to position the light emitting assembly relative to the optical device.

A lighting system that is part of a headlight module of a motor vehicle includes an array of LED light sources that include no organic materials. Each light source includes a glass lens attached to a phosphor glass converter plate, which itself is attached to an LED die that is flip-chip mounted on a mounting substrate. The converter plate includes phosphor particles embedded in glass. Each lens is disposed laterally over a single LED die. The converter plate is attached to the LED die by a first bonding layer, and the lens is attached to the converter plate by a second bonding layer. Both bonding layers are made of a metal oxide and are thinner than the converter plate. Either each lens does not extend horizontally outside the lateral boundary of each converter plate, or the lens portions centered on each LED die are part of a unitary lens array.
