FIELD: electricity.
SUBSTANCE: method according to the invention involves parallel arrangement of sets with a given number of series-connected light-emitting elements in a light-emitting array. In the integrated field of the light-emitting array, the sets are arranged vertically parallel to each other and are connected to power buses connected in between an arranged horizontally with alternating polarity. The number of power buses is defined based on the number of light-emitting elements in a set, and the sets lying on the side of the edge of the substrate in a first case without a remainder in the number of sets. In a second case with a remainder in the number of sets, the remaining sets are arranged horizontally between additional power buses. In a third case with a remainder in the number of sets, the sets are arranged randomly, and the remaining unused cells under the light-emitting elements are used as contact pads for connecting power buses using current collectors to external leads of the housing of the light-emitting array of light-emitting elements. For external connection, from the active emitting side of the substrate, of the power bus with leads of the housing of the light-emitting array of light-emitting elements with current collectors, comparable on thickness with the size of the cell of light-emitting elements, a virtual cell of the light-emitting array relative, for example, the left-side and bottom edges of the substrate simultaneously or from one side, is compressed by the field of the cell of light-emitting elements by a value sufficient for an area for forming contact pads in the top and right sides of the substrate, connected to corresponding power buses for connection thereof with current collectors for external leads of the light-emitting array of light-emitting elements. If there are two more remaining cells under the light-emitting elements when forming the light-emitting array, the remaining unused cells under the light-emitting elements are used as contact pads for changing the size of virtual cells. This results in maximum density of arranging sets of light-emitting elements, avoiding crossing of series connections of light-emitting elements in a set, possible multifunctionality of a light-emitting array during separate power connection to the contact pads of the sets of light-emitting elements, and high output of non-defective articles.
EFFECT: increasing density of arrangement, maintaining emission of a light-emitting device during malfunction of one or more sets of the light-emitting array and high percentage output of non-defective articles.
