Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to an alternating current (AC) light emitting diode (LED) structure with overload protection, which comprises an AC LED, a heat dissipating unit and an overload protecting unit. The AC LED is thermally connected with the heat dissipating unit, and the overload protecting unit is connected in series between the AC LED and a power source. Thus, when an overload current is inputted to the AC LED structure, the temperature of the overload protecting unit will rise to disconnect the AC LED from the power source. In this way, an open-circuit status can be produced timely in the AC LED structure to block the power input into the AC LED for purpose of protection against overload.
