An optoelectronic semiconductor body comprises a semiconductor layer sequence which is subdivided into at least two electrically isolated subsegments. The semiconductor layer sequence has an active layer in each subarea. Furthermore, at least three electrical contact pads are provided. A first line level makes contact with a first of the at least two subsegments and with the first contact pad. A second line level makes contact with the second of the at least two subsegments and with a second contact pad. A third line level connects the two subsegments to one another and makes contact with the third contact pad. Furthermore, the line levels are each arranged opposite a first main face, wherein the first main face is intended to emit electromagnetic radiation that is produced.
