An apparatus and method for current peak detection. The apparatus includes a pulse laser diode array, a sense resistor, a capacitive voltage divider (CVD) electrically coupled to the pulse laser diode array, a first current rectifier, a second current rectifier, a first current peak detector, a second current peak detector, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) operable to convert the analog outputs from each current peak detector to a digital output signal, and a digital signal processing (DSP) unit operable to detect, from the digital output signal, a current peak pulse at the top and the bottom of the sense resistor. |
