Abstract
An integrated chip packaging for a LIDAR sensor mounted to a vehicle includes a laser assembly configured to output a beam, an optical amplifier array chip configured to amplify a beam, and a transceiver chip coupled to the laser assembly and the optical amplifier array chip. The transceiver chip may be configured to emit the beam with reference to a first surface of the transceiver chip through an optical window and receive a reflected beam from a target through the optical window. The integrated chip packaging for the LIDAR sensor defines the configuration of optical components for providing a path for the optical signal to travel in and out of the LIDAR sensor and dissipating the heat generated by the optical components for improved performance.
