    [0025] The LED lighting apparatus also includes a metal piece 7 and an edge line 8. The metal piece 7 is pin-shaped and is configured to pass through the head body 2. The outer wall of the head body 2 is provided with external thread, thus the metal piece 7 may be electrically connected to an external power source so as to supply the current to the composite printed circuit board 4. The metal piece 7 may directly connect to terminals on the composite printed circuit board 4 (not shown) when the length of the metal piece 7 is long enough, such that the metal piece 7 is electrically connected to the composite printed circuit board 4.

    [0026] In one embodiment, the edge line 8 is arranged on the surface of the composite printed circuit board 4 facing away from the bulb body 3. The edge line 8 electrically connects to the head body 2 via the main body 1.

    [0027] In one embodiment, the bottom of the main body 1 is configured with a protrusion 11 extending from an edge of the bottom toward the edge line 8. The protrusion 11 is provided with a socket 12 for engaging with the edge line 8. That is, the composite printed circuit board 4 electrically connects to the head body 2 via the metal piece 7 and the edge line 8.

    [0028] In one embodiment, when the length of the metal piece 7 is not long enough for the metal piece 7 to reach the composite printed circuit board 4, a resistance line 9 may be configured on one surface of the composite printed circuit board 4 facing toward the metal piece 7, and the resistance line 9 electrically connects to the metal piece 7. In one embodiment, a central area of the composite printed circuit board 4 is provided with a through hole 43 or an opening. The resistance line 9 operates as a fire wire to pass through the through hole 43 or the opening of the head body 2 so as to electrically connect to the metal piece 7. The composite printed circuit board 4 is subjected to wave soldering together with the edge line 8 and the resistance line 9. Afterward, the resistance line 9 and the edge line 8 are connected to the composite printed circuit board 4 by solder paste.

    [0029] Referring to FIGS. 1, 3, 4 and 5, the composite printed circuit board 4 is of single-layer. The communication module 6 and the LED module 5 are welded on the composite printed circuit board 4. That is, the communication module 6 and the LED module 5 are welded on the surface of the composite printed circuit board 4 facing toward the bulb body 3.

    [0030] An internal wall of the main body 1 is configured with a ring-shaped stage 131. The composite printed circuit board 4 engages with the ring-shaped stage 131. The composite printed circuit board 4 is a composite board made by a metal substrate and an insulating substrate.

    [0031] The composite printed circuit board 4 includes a first sub-board 41 and a second sub-board 42. The communication module 6 is arranged on the first sub-board 41, and the LED module 5 is arranged on the second sub-board 42. The first sub-board and the second sub-board are different substrates. For instance, the first sub-board 41 is an insulating substrate, and the second sub-board 42 is a metal substrate.

    [0032] At least one surface of the first sub-board 41 and the second sub-board 42 includes an insulating layer (not shown) and a conductive layer (not shown). That is, both of the first sub-board 41 and the second sub-board 42 includes the insulating layer and the conductive layer. The conductive layer electrically connects the first sub-board 41 with the second sub-board 42. The insulating layer is configured for insulating the composite printed circuit board 4 and the conductive layer.

    [0033] Referring to FIG. 3, the first sub-board 41 is embedded within the second sub-board 42 so as to form the composite substrate. As the first sub-board 41 and the second sub-board 42 are on the same plane, the communication module 6 and the LED module 5 are also on the same plane. As all components of the communication module 6 and the LED module 5 are on the same plane, such configuration may save space.

    [0034] The first sub-board 41 and the second sub-board 42 both include the conductive layer. The resistance line 9 is arranged in the central area of the composite printed circuit board 4, that is, the resistance line 9 is arranged on the first sub-board 41 for providing power supply to the communication module 6. On the other hand, the LED module 5 may operate in accordance with the signals from the communication module 6. With such configuration, the feedback route of the signals from the communication module 6 to the LED module 5 may be easily configured.

    [0035] Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, in an example arrangement not forming part of the claimed invention, the communication module 6 and the LED module 5 may not be on the same plane- -The communication module 6 further includes an antenna 61, a radio frequency circuitry 62 coupled to the antenna 61 for receiving wireless signals, and a radio frequency power circuitry 63 for providing power to the radio frequency circuitry 62.

    [0036] Referring to FIG. 4, the radio frequency circuitry 62 and the antenna 61 may be integrated as a module to be welded on the composite printed circuit board 4. Specifically, the first sub-board 41 includes a first layer 411 and a second layer 412 stacked together. The first layer 411 and the second layer 412 are on the same plane. The radio frequency power circuitry 63 is arranged on the first layer 411, and the antenna 61 and the radio frequency circuitry 62 are arranged on the second layer 412. That is, the radio frequency power circuitry 63 and the LED module 5 are on the same plane. To avoid signal interference, the second layer 412 is disposed away from the radio frequency power circuitry 63.

    [0037] Referring to FIG. 5, - the antenna 61 may be configured externally, and the radio frequency circuitry 62 and the radio frequency power circuitry 63 may be separately arranged. Specifically, the first sub-board 41 includes the first layer 411, the second layer 412, and a third layer 413. The first layer 411 and the second sub-board 42 are on the same plane, and the radio frequency power circuitry 63 is arranged on the first layer 411. The radio frequency circuitry 62 is arranged on the second layer 412, and the antenna 61 is arranged on the third layer 413. The second layer 412 is disposed away from the radio frequency power circuitry 63, and the third layer 413 is disposed away from the radio frequency circuitry 62 and the radio frequency power circuitry 63 so as to avoid the signals interference.

    [0038] Referring to FIG. 7, in some embodiments, the radio frequency circuitry 62 further includes a radio frequency integrated circuit 621 and an antenna impedance matching circuitry 6214 electrically connected to the antenna 61. The radio frequency integrated circuit 621 further includes a filter circuitry 6211, a crystal oscillator 6212 and a flash memory 6213.

    [0039] Referring to FIG. 6, in one embodiment, the filter circuitry 6211, the crystal oscillator 6212 and the flash memory 6213 may be located outside the radio frequency integrated circuit 621.

    [0040] In some embodiments, the antenna 61 is a unipolar antenna disposed on the first sub-board 41. The unipolar antenna may be a single wire only occupying very small space. In another example, the antenna 61 may be configured to be strip-shaped or at least one of a zigzag shape, a spiral shape, a stage shape or a ring shape according to the shape of the first sub-substrate 41. As such, the length of the antenna 61 can be flexibly adjusted to match different operating frequencies. The material of the antenna 61 may be at least one of gold, silver, copper, palladium, platinum, nickel, and stainless steel. In a specific application, different materials and different shapes of the antenna 61 may be configured according to different scenarios.

    [0041] Referring to FIGS. 1-5, the LED module 5 includes at least one first LED 51 and a driver circuitry 52. The driver circuitry 52 electrically connects to the LED 51 so as to drive the LED 51. The driver circuitry 52 is arranged on the composite printed circuit board 4, that is, the driver circuitry 52 and the LED 51 are circuit-fused together. Such configuration is feasible for Driver on Board (DOB) lamp, which is usually referred to as "de-energizing," that is, the conventional AC/DC (AC to DC) rectifier is removed. The LED driving circuit and the LED string circuit are combined. The DOB uses high-voltage LEDs plus a streamlined high-voltage driving circuit, which can be directly driven by the main voltage, without the need of additional components such as inductors, electrolytic capacitors, and transformers. As such, the size and cost of the lamp may be reduced. In one embodiment, when there are many LEDs 51, the LEDs 51 may be configured to surround the second sub-board 42 so as to provide uniform light.

    [0042] Referring to FIG. 8, in one embodiment, the power may be supplied to the LED 51 by the path described below. The alternating current of the external power source reaches the first sub-board 41 through the metal piece 7 and the resistance line 9 of the head body 2. The alternating current is then transmitted to the second sub-board 42 through the wires on the first sub-board 41, and then supplied to the LED 51 through the driver circuitry 52. Afterward, the alternating current is transmitted to the main body 1 through the edge line 8, and back to the head body 2 to form a complete circuit.

    [0043] The power may be supplied to the antenna 61 by the path described below. The alternating current of the external power source is transmitted to the first sub-board 41 via the metal piece 7 and the resistance line 9 of the head body 2 so as to provide the power to the radio frequency power circuitry 63. The alternating current is then supplied to the radio frequency circuitry 62 through the radio frequency power circuitry 63. The radio frequency circuit 62 then supplies the power to the antenna 61.

    [0044] The signals may be provided to the radio frequency circuitry 62 by the path described below. The antenna 61 receives the signals and transforms the signals into electronic signals. The electronic signals are then transmitted to the radio frequency circuitry 62 via the wires on the first sub-board 41.

    [0045] The LED module 5 may be driven by the communication module 6. In one example, the radio frequency circuitry 62 controls the driver circuitry 52 in accordance with the control signals so as to drive the LED 51.

    [0046] The assembly process of the lamp will be described in detail below. First, the assembled composite printed circuit board 4, the resistance line 9, and the edge line 8 are applied with the wave soldering process. After the wave soldering process, the resistance line 9, the edge line 8, and the composite printed circuit board 4 are fixed together with solder paste.

    [0047] Next, the resistance line 9 of the composite printed circuit board 4 is aligned with the middle of the main body 1, and the edge line 8 is aligned with the socket 12 at the bottom of the main body 1. The composite printed circuit board 4 is placed on the ring-shaped stage 131 inside the main body 1, and the composite printed circuit board 4 is riveted and connected together via the jig. The interference fit between the two is between 0 and 0.1 mm. In a specific application, the interference gap may be 0, 0.05 mm or 0.1 mm. After the head body 2 and the metal piece 7 are assembled, the head body 2 is riveted to meet the requirements of the torsion and bending moment. In this way, the head body 2 is prevented from falling off. Lastly, a ring of silicone adhesive or the like is applied to the other end of the main body 1, and the bulb body 3 is assembled. After the silicone glue dries, the bulb body 3 may be fixed on the main body 1.

    [0048] The foregoing description, for purpose of explanation, has been described with reference to specific embodiments. However, the illustrative discussions above are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations are possible in view of the above teachings. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the techniques and their practical applications. Others skilled in the art are thereby enabled to best utilize the techniques and various embodiments with various modifications as are suited to the particular use contemplated.

    [0049] Although the disclosure and examples have been fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings, it is to be noted that various changes and modifications will become apparent to those skilled in the art. Such changes and modifications are to be understood as being included within the scope of the disclosure and examples as defined by the claims.
