Abstract: An electronic device is couplable to a plurality of laser diodes and includes a control switch having a drain coupled to a drain metallization and having a source coupled to a first source metallization that is electrically couplable to cathodes of the laser diodes. Each of a plurality of first switches has a drain coupled to the drain metallization and a source coupled to a respective second source metallization that is couplable to an anode of the laser diodes. The second source metallizations are aligned with one another in a direction of alignment, overlie, in a direction orthogonal to the direction of alignment, the respective sources of the first switches, and can be aligned, in a direction orthogonal to the direction of alignment, to the respective laser diodes. At least one of the sources of the first switches can be aligned, in a direction orthogonal to the direction of alignment, to the respective laser diode.
