A laser array (100) is described herein, wherein the laser array comprises semiconductor lasers (102, 104) that are precisely controlled such that an optical beam output by the laser array has desired shape and direction.

Implementations described herein are related to a diode driver that recirculates residual current from an operating current pulse in an inductor. Such recirculation produces a diagnostic current pulse to a diode array for measuring a voltage drop across a portion of the array. For example, after a controller charges an inductor of a diode driver to deliver operating current pulses to a portion of a diode array for illumination, the controller causes a residual current to remain and recirculate in the inductor. In some implementations, in response to the recirculating current reaching a monitoring threshold, the controller delivers a monitoring pulse to the portion of the diode array to measure a voltage drop across the portion of the diode array. In some implementations, the controller may infer defectivity in the portion of the array from such voltage drop measurements over time.
