Zusammenfassung: | In some implementations, a driver circuit may include a source to provide an electrical input, and an array of optical emitters arranged in one or more rows and one or more columns. The array may include an optical emitter associated with a row and a column. The driver circuit may include a first switch having an open state and a closed state, and an inductive element connected to the row. The first switch in the closed state may cause current to charge the inductive element. The driver circuit may include a second switch having an open state and a closed state. The second switch in the closed state may select the column. The first switch transitioning from the closed state to the open state may cause the inductive element to discharge current through the row, and through the column when the second switch is in the closed state. |
