Abstract

According to one embodiment, an LED package includes a first lead frame, a second lead frame, an LED chip, a wire, and a resin body. The first lead frame and the second lead frame are arranged with a space between each other. The LED chip is provided above the first lead frame and the second lead frame. The LED chip has a first terminal connected to the first lead frame and a second terminal connected to the second lead frame. The wire connects the first terminal to the first lead frame. The resin body covers the LED chip as well as a top surface, a part of a bottom surface, and a part of an edge surface of each of the first lead frame and the second lead frame. A remaining portion of each of the bottom surfaces and a remaining portion of each of the edge surfaces are exposed. A chip side angle formed by a top surface of the LED chip and a direction in which the wire is extracted from the first terminal is smaller than a frame side angle formed by the top surface of the first lead frame and a direction in which the wire is extracted from the first lead frame.
