[0045] See also Figure 1The related art provides a laser emitting circuit 100, which includes a laser 210 and an emission driving circuit 220. The laser 210 is used to emit an outgoing laser, and the emission driving circuit 220 is electrically connected to the emission driving circuit 220 to drive the laser 210 to emit an outgoing laser. At present, the laser emitting circuit 100 usually adopts the method of assembling the various discrete electronic components included in the emission driving circuit 220 on a circuit board, and then completing the electrical connection between the various discrete electronic components by the circuit board to complete the assembly of the laser emitting circuit 100. However, the use of discrete electronic components to assemble the laser emitting circuit 100 results in a larger size of the circuit board used to assemble the laser emitting circuit 100.
[0046] It is not conducive to the miniaturization design of the laser distance measuring device. How to reduce the assembly size of the laser emitting circuit 100 has become a problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. In order to solve the technical problem that the laser emitting circuit 100 is assembled with discrete electronic components in the related art, resulting in a large assembly size of the laser emitting circuit 100, such as Figure 2 As shown, the present application provides a laser emission module 300, which has a small assembly size and is convenient for miniaturized design of a laser ranging device.
[0047] See also Figures 2 to 14 As shown, the laser emission module 300 includes a light emitting chip 310, an anode driving chip 330, an anode energy storage element 132, a cathode driving chip 340 and an emission substrate 350. The emission substrate 350 includes a first board surface 351. The light emitting chip 310 is mounted on the first board surface 351 of the emission substrate 350, and a laser array LDm*n is integrated inside. The laser array LDm*n includes m*n light-emitting units 111, m is the number of rows of the light-emitting units 111 included in the laser array LDm*n, n is the number of columns of the light-emitting units 111 included in the laser array LDm*n, m and n are both positive integers, and at least one of m and n is greater than 1, that is, the laser array LDm*n is a one-dimensional array or a two-dimensional array; in the laser array LDm*n, the anodes of the lasers 311 located in the same row are electrically connected and lead to a common anode terminal 311a, and m rows of lasers 311 lead to m common anode terminals 311a in total; the cathodes of the lasers 311 located in the same column are electrically connected and lead to a common cathode terminal 311b, and n columns of lasers 311 lead to n common cathode terminals 311b in total.
[0048] like Figures 2 to 14As shown, the anode drive chip 330 is mounted on the emission substrate 350, and m anode drive circuits 131 are integrated inside. One end of the m anode drive circuits 131 is used to receive the current IL, and the other end is electrically connected to one end of the m anode energy storage elements 132 in a one-to-one correspondence. The number of anode energy storage elements 132 is m, and the m anode energy storage elements 132 are mounted on the emission substrate 350. One end of the m anode energy storage elements 132 is electrically connected to the m anode drive circuits 131 in a one-to-one correspondence, and is also electrically connected to the m common anode terminals 311a derived from the laser array LDm*n in a one-to-one correspondence. The other end of the m anode energy storage elements 132 is grounded GND.
[0049] like Figures 2 to 14 As shown, the cathode driving chip 340 is mounted on the emitting substrate 350, and n cathode driving circuits 140 are integrated inside. One end of the n cathode driving circuits 140 is connected to the n common cathode terminals 311b led out of the laser array LDm*n one by one, and the other end of the n cathode driving circuits 140 is grounded GND.
[0050] Further, m anode drive circuits 131 and n cathode drive circuits 140 are combined to form m*n emission drive channels P1*1~P1*n, ..., Pm*1~Pm*n, wherein the emission drive channel Px*y includes the xth anode drive circuit 131 and the yth cathode drive circuit 140, the xth anode drive circuit 131 is the anode drive circuit 131 connected to the xth common anode terminal 311a, the yth cathode drive circuit 140 is the cathode drive circuit 140 connected to the yth common cathode terminal 311b, x and y are both positive integers, and 1≤x≤m, 1≤y≤n (the same below). The m common anode terminals 311a and the n common cathode terminals 311b are combined to form m*n emission driving terminal combinations G1*1~G1*n,…,Gm*1~Gm*n, wherein the emission driving terminal combination Gx*y includes the xth common anode terminal and the yth common cathode terminal, the xth common anode terminal 311a is the common anode terminal 311a led out of the xth row laser 311, and the yth common cathode terminal 311b is the common cathode terminal 311b led out of the yth row laser 311.
[0051] In this embodiment, m*n emission drive channels P1*1~P1*n, ..., Pm*1~Pm*n are started in sequence according to a preset timing to receive the current IL, and use the electric energy stored in the anode energy storage element 132 to apply a forward bias voltage between the common anode terminal 311a and the common cathode terminal 311b included in the m*n emission drive end combinations G1*1~G1*n, ..., Gm*1~Gm*n in sequence, and then apply a forward bias voltage between the anode and cathode of the m*n lasers 311 in sequence, driving the m*n lasers 311 to emit light in sequence according to a preset timing, so that the outgoing lasers emitted by the m*n lasers 311 traverse the detection area in a scanning manner. For example, when the emission drive channel Px*y is started, the emission drive channel Px*y uses the electrical energy stored in the anode energy storage element 132 to apply a forward bias voltage to the laser 311 located at the (x, y) position, that is, the laser 311 in the xth row and yth column, to drive the laser 311 at the (x, y) position to emit light.
[0052] The "preset timing" refers to the start sequence preset by the control part. The m*n emission drive channels P1*1~P1*n, ..., Pm*1~Pm*n drive the m*n lasers 311 to emit laser light in sequence according to the preset timing, which can be to first drive the laser 311 at the (1, 1) position to start and emit light, then drive the laser 311 at the (1, 2) position to start and emit light... until the laser 311 at the (1, n) position is driven to start and emit light, then start to drive the laser 311 at the (2, 1) position to start and emit light, then drive the laser 311 at the (2, 2) position to start and emit light... drive the laser 311 at the (2, n) position to start and emit light... until the laser 311 at the (m, n) position is driven to start and emit light.
[0053] In the embodiment of the present application, the activation of m*n emission drive channels P1*1~P1*n, ..., Pm*1~Pm*n includes two stages: energy conversion stage and energy release stage. The two stages of the emission drive channel activation are introduced below, taking the emission drive channel Px*y as an example.
[0054] Energy conversion stage: the xth anode drive circuit 131 included in the emission drive channel Px*y is turned on in the direction of the current toward the xth anode energy storage element 132, and the xth anode drive circuit 131 charges the xth anode energy storage element 132 using the received current IL; wherein the xth anode energy storage element 132 is the anode energy storage element 132 connected to the xth anode drive circuit 131;
[0055] Energy release stage: After the energy conversion is completed, the yth cathode driving circuit 140 included in the emission driving channel Px*y is turned on in the direction from the xth common cathode terminal 311b to the ground GND, and the xth anode energy storage element 132 uses the stored electric energy to form a forward bias voltage between the xth common anode terminal 311a and the yth common cathode terminal 311b included in the emission driving end combination Gx*y, and the forward bias voltage drives the laser 311 located at the xth row and yth column to emit light.
[0056] The laser emission module 300 provided in the present application can reduce the area occupied by the anode drive circuit 131 and the cathode drive circuit 140 on the emission substrate 350 by performing chip integration processing on the anode drive circuit 131 and the cathode drive circuit 140, and assembling the anode drive chip 330 and the cathode drive chip 340 obtained after the chip integration processing on the emission substrate 350. Furthermore, by reducing the area of the emission substrate 350, the size of the laser emission module 300 can be reduced, which is convenient for the miniaturized design of the laser ranging device.
[0057] Furthermore, compared with the related art that uses m*n discrete lasers 311 to form a laser array LDm*n, the laser emission module 300 provided in the embodiment of the present application integrates the laser array LDm*n through the light-emitting chip 310, which can also reduce the area occupied by the laser array LDm*n on the emission substrate 350, thereby facilitating the reduction of the area of the emission substrate 350, and further reducing the assembly size of the laser emission module 300.
[0058] In a specific implementation, the light emitting chip 310 is a VSCEL (Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser) array chip.
[0059] like Figure 3 , 6, 8, and 11, the top surface 411 of the light-emitting chip 310 is provided with m common anode terminal bonding points 411a and n common cathode terminal bonding points 411b, the m common anode terminal bonding points 411a are respectively electrically connected to the m common anode terminals 311a led out of the laser array LDm*n integrated inside the light-emitting chip 310 in a one-to-one correspondence, and the n common cathode terminal bonding points 411b are respectively electrically connected to the n common cathode terminals 411b led out of the laser array LDm*n integrated inside the light-emitting chip 310 in a one-to-one correspondence.
[0060] like Figure 3, 6, 9, and 12, the anode driver chip 330 is a bare chip, and the top surface 431 of the anode driver chip 330 is provided with m anode driver bonding points 331a; the m anode driver bonding points 331a are electrically connected one-to-one with the m anode driver circuits 131 integrated inside the anode driver chip 330. The m anode energy storage elements 132 are bonded to the m anode driver bonding points 331a through m first bonding wires 151 to achieve one-to-one electrical connection with the m anode driver circuits 131. The m anode energy storage elements 132 are also bonded to the m common anode terminal bonding points 411a through m second bonding wires 152 to achieve one-to-one electrical connection with the m common anode terminals 311a. Among them, the "bare chip" is the product form after the semiconductor components are manufactured and before packaging. "Bond wire" is a thin metal wire that uses heat, pressure, and ultrasonic energy to tightly weld to the pad to achieve electrical interconnection between the chip and the substrate and information exchange between chips.
[0061] like Figure 3 , 6, 9, and 12, the cathode driver chip 340 is a bare chip, and the top surface 441 of the cathode driver chip 340 is provided with n cathode driver bonding points 341a; the n cathode driver bonding points 341a are electrically connected to one end of the n cathode driver circuits 140 integrated inside the cathode driver chip 340, and are bonded to the n common cathode terminal bonding points 411b through n third bonding wires 153, so as to realize a one-to-one electrical connection between the n cathode driver circuits 140 and the n common cathode terminals 411b.
[0062] Furthermore, the surface 331 of the anode driver chip 330 is also provided with a charging bonding point (not shown), which is electrically connected to the other end of the m anode driver circuits 131 integrated inside the anode driver chip 330 for receiving the current IL. The surface 341 of the cathode driver chip 340 is also provided with a grounding bonding point (not shown), which is electrically connected to the other end of the n cathode driver circuits 140 integrated inside the cathode driver chip 340 for grounding GND.
[0063] Compared with the related art, when discrete electronic components are used to assemble the anode drive circuit 131 and the cathode drive circuit 140 on the circuit board, each discrete electronic component needs to be first bound to the solder joints on the circuit board, and then electrically connected through the solder joints on the circuit board, resulting in more solder joints on the circuit board and a larger area of the circuit board. The laser emission module 300 provided in the embodiment of the present application reduces the solder joints on the emission substrate 350 by performing chip integration processing on the anode drive circuit 131 and the cathode drive circuit 140, and then electrically connecting them with other electronic components through bonding wires, thereby further reducing the area of the emission substrate 350, thereby further reducing the assembly size of the laser emission module 300.
[0064] At the same time, the laser emission module 300 provided in the present application uses bonding wires to directly connect the anode driving chip 330 and the anode energy storage element 132, and between the anode energy storage element 132 and the light-emitting chip 310, so as to shorten the line length from the anode driving circuit 131 to the anode energy storage element 132 and from the anode energy storage element 132 to the common anode terminal 311a, reduce the link impedance, and further reduce the energy loss on the line, thereby improving the light-emitting power and light-emitting efficiency.

[0069] The m1 anode energy storage elements 132 corresponding to the first anode driver chip 331 are arranged between the first anode driver chip 331 and the first side edge 4113a, and are bonded to the m1 anode drive bonding points 331a on the first anode driver chip 331 through m1 first bonding wires 151, so as to realize the one-to-one electrical connection between the m1 anode energy storage elements 132 and the m1 anode drive circuits 131. The m1 anode energy storage elements 132 corresponding to the first anode driver chip 331 are also bonded to the m1 common anode terminal bonding points 411a arranged on the first side edge 4113a through m1 second bonding wires 152, so as to realize the one-to-one electrical connection between the m1 anode energy storage elements 132 and the m1 anode drive circuits 131. The m2 anode energy storage elements 132 corresponding to the second anode driver chip 332 are arranged between the second anode driver chip 332 and the second side edge 4113b, and are bonded to the m2 anode drive bonding points 331a on the second anode driver chip 332 through m2 first bonding wires 151, so as to realize the one-to-one electrical connection between the m2 anode energy storage elements 132 and the m2 anode drive circuits 131. The m2 anode energy storage elements 132 corresponding to the second anode driver chip 332 are also bonded to the m2 common anode terminal bonding points 411a located at the second side edge 4113b of the light-emitting chip 310 through m2 second bonding wires 152, so as to realize the one-to-one electrical connection between the m2 anode energy storage elements 132 and the m2 anode drive circuits 131.
[0070] Furthermore, the first anode driver chip 331 and the second anode driver chip 332 are symmetrically mounted on both sides of the light emitting chip 310 along the row direction AA. In a preferred embodiment, m1=m2=m / 2, which is convenient for mass production of the anode driver chip 330 and assembly of the laser emission module 300.
[0071] like Figures 9 to 12As shown, the third side edge 4113c is provided with n1 common cathode end bonding points 411b, and the fourth side edge 4113d is provided with n2 common cathode end bonding points 411b, n1 and n2 are both positive integers, and n1+n2=n, n1≥1, and n2≥1. The cathode driver chip 340 includes a first cathode driver chip 341 and a second cathode driver chip 342, the first cathode driver chip 341 is provided on a side of the light emitting chip 310 close to the third side edge 4113c, and n1 cathode driver circuits 140 are integrated inside the first cathode driver chip 341, and n1 cathode driver bonding points 341a are provided on the top surface 4411 of the first cathode driver chip 341, and the n1 cathode driver bonding points 341a are electrically connected to the n1 cathode driver circuits 140 integrated inside the first cathode driver chip 341 in a one-to-one correspondence. The second cathode driver chip 342 is arranged on a side of the light-emitting chip 310 close to the fourth side edge 4113d, and the second cathode driver chip 342 has n2 cathode driver circuits 140 integrated therein, and the top surface 3421 of the second cathode driver chip 342 is provided with n2 cathode driver bonding points 341a, and the n2 cathode driver bonding points 341a are electrically connected one-to-one with the n2 cathode driver circuits 140 integrated therein.
[0072] The n1 cathode driving bonding points 341a provided on the surface 3411 of the first cathode driving chip 341 are bonded to the n1 common cathode terminal bonding points 411b located at the third side edge 4133c through n1 third bonding wires 153, so as to realize the one-to-one electrical connection between the n1 cathode driving circuits 140 and the n1 common cathode terminals 311b. The n2 cathode driving bonding points 341a provided on the surface 3421 of the second cathode driving chip 342 are bonded to the n2 common cathode terminal bonding points 411b located at the fourth side edge 4133d through n2 third bonding wires 153, so as to realize the one-to-one electrical connection between the n2 cathode driving circuits 140 and the n2 common cathode terminals 311b.
[0073] Furthermore, the first cathode driver chip 341 and the second cathode driver chip 342 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the light emitting chip 310 along the column direction BB. Preferably, n1=n2=n / 2, which is convenient for mass production of the cathode driver chip 340 and assembly of the laser emission module 300.
[0074] In this embodiment, the laser emission module 100 integrates m anode drive circuits by using the independently arranged first anode drive chip 331 and the second anode drive chip 332, thereby avoiding integrating all anode drive circuits 131 into the same chip, which will increase the processing difficulty and increase the cost. On the other hand, it will also cause the emission substrate 350 to have a larger size in the layout direction of the anode drive chips, such as the column direction BB, thereby increasing the size of the emission substrate 350. At the same time, when the anode driving chip with a larger size is arranged on the side of the light-emitting chip 310, not only will the line between each anode driving bonding point 331a and the corresponding common anode terminal bonding point 4122a be longer, but it will also easily cause the distance between the anode driving bonding point 331a near the edge position and the corresponding common anode terminal bonding point 411a to be much greater than the distance between the anode driving bonding point 331a located in the middle position and the corresponding common anode terminal bonding point 411a, thereby causing a large difference in the line length between the anode driving bonding points 331a at different positions and the corresponding common anode terminal 311a, and the line from the anode driving bonding point 331a at the edge position to the corresponding common anode terminal 311a is longer. On the one hand, the line is longer, and the link impedance corresponding to the line will also be larger. Accordingly, the energy loss when the current is transmitted on the line will also increase, which will lead to a decrease in the light-emitting power of the laser 311 corresponding to the common anode terminal bonding point 411a connected to the anode drive bonding point 331a located at the edge position. On the other hand, the line is longer, and the time for the current to be transmitted on the line will also be correspondingly longer, which will lead to a slower response speed of the laser 311 corresponding to the common anode terminal bonding point 411a connected to the anode drive bonding point 331a located at the edge position.
[0075] At the same time, the laser emission module 100 integrates n anode drive circuits by using the independently arranged first cathode drive chip 341 and the second cathode drive chip 342, thereby avoiding integrating all cathode drive circuits 140 into the same chip, which will increase the processing difficulty and increase the cost. On the other hand, it will also cause the emission substrate 350 to have a larger size in the direction of the cathode drive chip layout, such as the row direction AA, thereby increasing the size of the emission substrate 350. At the same time, when a cathode driving chip with a larger size is arranged on the side of the light-emitting chip 310, not only will the line between each cathode driving bonding point 341a and the corresponding common cathode end bonding point 411b be longer, but it will also easily cause the distance between the cathode driving bonding point 341a near the edge position and the corresponding common cathode end bonding point 411b to be much greater than the distance between the cathode driving bonding point 341a located in the middle position and the corresponding common cathode end bonding point 411b, thereby causing a large difference in the line length between the cathode driving bonding points 341a at different positions and the corresponding common cathode end bonding point 411b. The line from the cathode driving bonding point 341a located at the edge position to the corresponding common cathode end bonding point 411b is longer, and accordingly, the link impedance is larger, which in turn causes an increase in energy loss on the line, thereby reducing the luminous power and luminous efficiency of the laser 311.
[0076] It is understandable that the difference in line length between the anode drive bonding points 331a located at different positions and the corresponding common anode terminal bonding points 411a is relatively large, which will lead to inconsistent light emitting power and response speed between the lasers 311 corresponding to the common anode terminal bonding points 411a connected to the anode drive bonding points 331a at different positions, affecting the light emitting uniformity of the laser emission module 300, and further affecting the ranging performance of the laser ranging device.

In a specific embodiment, the number of the second cathode driver chip 342 is one, and one second cathode driver chip 342 is arranged on the side of the light emitting chip 310 close to the fourth side edge 4113d.

Multiple second cathode driver chips 342 are arranged on the side of the light emitting chip 310 close to the fourth side edge 4113d.
[0079] like Figure 4 and Fig.10As shown, in some optional embodiments, each anode driving bonding point 331a is provided with a first pad 331b; m first anode energy storage element pads 1321 are provided on the emission substrate 350, and the m first anode energy storage element pads 1321 are electrically connected to the m anode energy storage elements 132 in a one-to-one correspondence; each common anode terminal bonding point 411a is provided with a fourth pad 411c; the m first anode energy storage element pads 1321 are connected to the m first pads 331c through m first bonding wires 151. 31b is welded and connected to realize bonding connection with m anode driving bonding points 331a, thereby realizing one-to-one electrical connection between m anode energy storage elements 132 and m anode driving circuits 131; the m first anode energy storage element pads 1321 are also welded and connected to m fourth pads 411c through m second bonding wires 152, so as to realize bonding connection with m common anode terminal bonding points 411a, thereby realizing one-to-one electrical connection between m first anode energy storage elements 132 and m common anode terminals 311a.
[0080] Furthermore, if Figure 4 and 9 As shown, the first anode energy storage element pads 1321 include a second pad 132a and a third pad 132b; the second pad 132a and the third pad 132b are respectively located on both sides of the corresponding anode energy storage element 132, and are electrically connected to the anode energy storage element 132; the second pad 132a is welded to the first pad 331b through the first bonding wire 151 to realize the bonding connection between the anode energy storage element 132 and the anode drive bonding point 311a, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the anode energy storage element 132 and the anode drive circuit 131; the third pad 132b is welded to the fourth pad 411c through the second bonding wire 152 to realize the bonding connection between the anode energy storage element 132 and the common anode terminal bonding point 411a, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the anode energy storage element 132 and the common anode terminal 311a.
[0081] Furthermore, the second pad 132a and the third pad 132b corresponding to each anode energy storage element 132, the first pad 331b corresponding to the anode driving bonding point 331a, and the fourth pad 411c corresponding to the common anode terminal bonding point 411a are arranged along the row direction AA.
[0082] Specifically, the anode energy storage element 132 is an energy storage capacitor. In a preferred embodiment, the anode energy storage element 132 is a ceramic capacitor.
[0083] like Figure 7 and Fig.13As shown, in other optional embodiments, a first pad 331b is provided on each anode drive bonding point 331a; a second anode energy storage element pad 1322 is provided on the surface of each anode energy storage element 132; a fourth pad 411c is provided on each common anode terminal bonding point 411a; m second anode energy storage element pads 1322 are welded and connected to the m first pads 331b through m first bonding wires 151 to achieve bonding connection with the m anode drive bonding points 331a, thereby achieving one-to-one electrical connection between the m anode energy storage elements 132 and the m anode drive circuits 131; the m second anode energy storage element pads 1322 are also welded and connected to the m fourth pads 411c through m second bonding wires 152 to achieve bonding connection with the m common anode terminal bonding points 411a, thereby achieving one-to-one electrical connection between the m first anode energy storage elements 132 and the m common anode terminals 311a.
[0084] Furthermore, the second anode energy storage element pad 1322 corresponding to each anode energy storage element 132 , the first pad 331 b corresponding to the anode driving bonding point 331 a , and the fourth pad 411 c corresponding to the common anode terminal bonding point 411 a are arranged along the row direction AA.
[0085] Specifically, the anode energy storage element 132 uses an energy storage capacitor. In another preferred embodiment, the anode energy storage element 132 uses a silicon capacitor.
[0086] The laser emission module 300 provided in this embodiment uses the second anode energy storage element pad 1322 on the anode energy storage element 132 to directly bond and connect with the anode drive chip 330 and the light-emitting chip 310. There is no need to set the first anode energy storage element pad on the emission substrate 350 to perform electrical connection between the anode energy storage element 132 and the anode drive chip 330 and between the anode energy storage element 132 and the light-emitting chip 310. The solder joints on the emission substrate 350 can be further reduced, and the area of the emission substrate 350 can be reduced, thereby further reducing the assembly size of the laser emission module 300.
[0087] Furthermore, the sum of the lengths of the first bonding wire 151 and the second bonding wire 152 connected to the m anode energy storage elements 132 is equal. Specifically, the sum of the lengths of the first bonding wire 151 and the second bonding wire 152 connected to the first anode energy storage element 132 is equal to the sum of the lengths of the first bonding wire 151 and the second bonding wire 152 connected to the second anode energy storage element 132, until the sum of the lengths of the first bonding wire 151 and the second bonding wire 152 connected to the mth anode energy storage element 132 is equal, which is convenient for controlling the line lengths between each anode drive circuit 131 and the common anode terminal 311a to be consistent, and correspondingly, the link impedance is consistent, which is conducive to ensuring the light emission uniformity of the m*n lasers 311.
[0088] like Figure 3 and 6 As shown, the m anode driving bonding points 331a arranged on the surface 331 of the anode driving chip 330 are arranged at equal intervals along the direction parallel to the column direction BB; the m second anode energy storage element pads 1322 corresponding to the m anode energy storage elements 132 are arranged at equal intervals along the direction parallel to the column direction BB; the m common anode terminal bonding points 411a are arranged at equal intervals along the direction parallel to the column direction BB; Fig. 9 and 12 As shown, the m1 anode driving bonding points 331a arranged on the surface 3311 of the first anode driving chip 331 are arranged at equal intervals along the direction parallel to the column direction BB; the m1 second anode energy storage element pads 1322 corresponding to the m1 anode energy storage elements 132 are arranged at equal intervals along the direction parallel to the column direction BB; the m2 anode driving bonding points 331a arranged on the surface 3312 of the second anode driving chip 332 are arranged at equal intervals along the direction parallel to the column direction BB; the m2 anode energy storage elements 132 corresponding to the m2 second anode energy storage element pads 1322 are arranged at equal intervals along the direction parallel to the column direction BB. The second anode energy storage element pads 1322 are arranged at equal intervals along a direction parallel to the column direction BB; the m2 common anode terminal bonding points 411a are arranged at equal intervals along a direction parallel to the column direction BB; such a design facilitates the realization that the lengths of the first bonding wires 151 connected to the m anode energy storage elements 132 are equal, and the lengths of the second bonding wires 152 connected to the m anode energy storage elements 132 are equal, thereby achieving that the sum of the lead lengths of the first bonding wires 151 and the second bonding wires 152 connected to the m anode energy storage elements 132 are equal.
[0089] like Figure 4 , Fig.10 , Figure 7 and Fig.13 As shown, a sixth pad 341b is provided on each cathode driving bonding point 341a, and a seventh pad 411d is provided on each common cathode terminal bonding point 411b. The sixth pad 341b on each cathode driving bonding point 341a is welded and connected to the seventh pad 411d on the corresponding common cathode terminal bonding point 411b through the third bonding wire 153, so as to realize the bonding connection between the cathode driving bonding point 341a and the corresponding common cathode terminal bonding point 411b, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the cathode driving circuit 140 and the corresponding common cathode terminal 311b.
[0090] Furthermore, the lengths of the third bonding wires 153 connected between the n cathode driving bonding points 341 a and the n common cathode terminal bonding points 411 b are equal. Specifically, the lead length of the third bonding lead 151 between the sixth pad 341b on the first cathode driving bonding point 341a and the seventh pad 411d set between the first common cathode end bonding point 411b is equal to the lead length of the third bonding lead 151 between the sixth pad 341b on the second cathode driving bonding point 341a and the seventh pad 411d set between the second common cathode end bonding point 411b, until the lead length of the third bonding lead 151 between the sixth pad 341b on the mth cathode driving bonding point 341a and the seventh pad 411d set between the mth common cathode end bonding point 411b is equal, which is convenient for controlling the line length between each cathode driving circuit 140 and the common cathode end 311b to be consistent, and accordingly, the link impedance is consistent, which is beneficial to ensure the uniformity of light emission of m*n lasers 311.
[0091] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, n cathode driving bonding points 341a arranged on the surface 341 of the cathode driving chip 340 are arranged at equal intervals along a direction parallel to the row direction AA; n common cathode terminal bonding points 411b are arranged at equal intervals along a direction parallel to the row direction AA; Fig. 9 and Fig.12 As shown, n1 cathode driving bonding points 341a arranged on the surface 3411 of the first cathode driving chip 341 are arranged at equal intervals along a direction parallel to the row direction AA; n1 common cathode end bonding points 411b are arranged at equal intervals along a direction parallel to the row direction AA. n2 cathode driving bonding points 341a arranged on the surface 3411 of the second cathode driving chip 342 are arranged at equal intervals along a direction parallel to the row direction AA; n2 common cathode end bonding points 411b are arranged at equal intervals along a direction parallel to the row direction AA; such a design facilitates the realization of equal lengths of the n third bonding wires 153 connected between the n cathode driving bonding points 341a and the n common cathode end bonding points 411b.
[0092] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 , Fig.11 , Fig.13 and Fig.14As shown, the laser emission module 300 also includes a packaging protective cover 360 and a light-transmitting cover plate 370. The packaging protective cover 360 is disposed on the first board surface 351 of the emission substrate 350, and forms a receiving space 316 with the first board surface 415, which is used to receive the components assembled on the emission substrate 350, including the light-emitting chip 310, the anode driving chip 330, the anode energy storage element 132, and the cathode driving chip 340. The packaging protective cover 360 is provided with a light-transmitting opening (not shown) corresponding to the light-emitting area 3111 of the light-emitting chip 310, and the light-transmitting cover plate 370 is covered on the light-transmitting opening, so as to allow the light emitted by the light-emitting chip 310 to emit out of the laser emission module 100.
[0093] The laser emission module 300 provided in the present application encapsulates the devices assembled on the emission substrate 350 through the packaging protection cover 360, and seals the light-transmitting opening through the light-transmitting cover 370, which can reduce the impact of external water vapor, volatile substances, dust, liquids, solder particles, etc. on the light-emitting chip 310, the anode driving chip 330, the anode energy storage element 132 and the cathode driving chip 340.
[0094] In a specific embodiment, the laser emission module 100 adopts a ball grid array packaging technology (BGA) (such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 , Fig.11 , Fig.13 and Fig.14 In another specific embodiment, the laser emission module 100 adopts a grid array packaging technology (LGA) (such as Fig.15 In other specific embodiments, the laser emission module 100 is packaged using a quad flat no-lead package technology (QFN) (as shown in FIG. Fig.16 As shown); the laser emission module 100 provided in the present application can be packaged into a whole by any one of the three packaging technologies mentioned above.
[0095] Specifically, Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 , Fig.11 , Fig.13 , Fig.14 , Fig.15 and Fig.16As shown, after the laser emission module 100 is packaged, the emission substrate 350 still retains an exposed external solder pad 353, and the external solder pad 353 is used to realize the laser emission module 100 and an external circuit, such as mounting with other circuit boards in a laser ranging device, and realize electrical connection with the mounted circuit board. The emission substrate 350 can receive an external control signal sent by the circuit board through the external solder pad 353, and the external control signal is transmitted to the emission substrate 350 through the external solder pad, and then transmitted to the anode drive chip 330 and the cathode drive chip 340 on the emission substrate 350 through the emission substrate 350, thereby controlling the anode drive chip 330 and the cathode drive chip 340.
[0096] Specifically, the transmitting substrate 350 adopts a printed circuit board, which is used to provide electrical connection, protection, support, heat dissipation, assembly and other functions for the chip, so as to achieve the purpose of multi-pin, reducing the size of the packaged product, reducing the product size, improving electrical performance and heat dissipation, ultra-high density or multi-chip modularization.
[0097] Furthermore, the emitting substrate 350 uses a thermally conductive substrate, which is convenient for dissipating heat from the devices mounted on the emitting substrate 350 and avoiding heat accumulation. The "thermal conductive substrate" can be understood as a plate with a good thermal conductivity. The present application does not limit the specific preparation material of the thermally conductive substrate, and the designer can reasonably select the preparation material of the thermally conductive substrate according to actual needs. Specifically, the thermally conductive substrate uses a ceramic substrate.
[0098] Furthermore, in order to facilitate chip integration of the anode drive circuit 131 and the cathode drive circuit 140, the devices included in the anode drive circuit 131 are all silicon-based devices, and the devices included in the cathode drive circuit 140 are all silicon-based devices.
[0099] like Fig.17 As shown, each anode driving circuit 131 includes an anode addressing switch element Q1, an anode unidirectional conduction element Q2 and an anode reverse bias switch element Q3; the anode addressing switch element Q1, the anode unidirectional conduction element Q2 and the anode reverse bias switch element Q3 are all silicon-based devices; one end of the anode unidirectional conduction element Q2 is connected to the anode addressing switch element Q1 and the anode reverse bias switch element Q3, and the other end is electrically connected to the corresponding common anode terminal 311a; the states of the anode addressing switch element Q1 and the anode reverse bias switch element Q3 are opposite, and the anode unidirectional conduction element Q2 can be controlled to be in a forward conduction state or a reverse biased state; when the anode addressing switch element Q1 is turned on, the anode unidirectional conduction element Q2 is in a conduction state; when the anode reverse bias switch element Q3 is turned on, the anode unidirectional conduction element Q2 is in a reverse biased state.
[0100] like Fig.17As shown, the m anode addressing switch elements Q1 included in the m anode driving circuits 131 are electrically connected to the cathode of a germanium-based diode D; the anode of the germanium-based diode D is used to receive the current IL to charge the m anode energy storage elements 132 .
[0101] Specifically, when the laser 311 at the position (x, y) needs to emit light, in the x-th anode drive circuit 131 corresponding to the laser 311 at the position (x, y), the anode site selection switch element Q1 is turned on, the anode reverse bias switch element Q3 is turned off, and the anode unidirectional conduction element Q2 is in a forward conduction state; the current IL charges the anode energy storage element 132 through the anode site selection switch element Q1 and the anode unidirectional conduction element Q2; at this time, the y-th cathode drive circuit 140 corresponding to the laser 311 at the position (x, y) is turned on, and the anode energy storage element 132-laser 311-cathode drive circuit 140 forms an energy release loop, and the electric energy stored in the anode energy storage element 132 is used to drive the laser 311 at the position (x, y) to emit light. When the laser 311 at the position (x, y) no longer needs to emit light, in the x-th anode drive circuit 131 corresponding to the laser 311 at the position (x, y), the anode addressing switch element Q1 is turned off, the anode reverse bias switch element Q3 is turned on, and the anode unidirectional conduction element Q2 is in a reverse bias state; the current IL stops charging the anode energy storage element 132. At this time, the anode unidirectional conduction element Q2 is in a reverse bias state, so that the laser 311 that no longer needs to emit light will not be crosstalked by the electrical signals of other lasers, thereby improving the isolation between the anode drive circuits 131.
[0102] Specifically, taking the xth anode drive circuit 131 as an example, the anode addressing switch element Q1 includes a first NMOS tube; the anode unidirectional conduction element Q2 includes a second NMOS tube; and the anode reverse bias switch element Q3 includes a third NMOS tube. The source of the second NMOS tube is connected to the source of the first NMOS tube and the drain of the third NMOS tube. The drain of the second NMOS tube is connected to one end of the anode energy storage element 132. The source of the third NMOS tube is grounded GND. The gate of the first NMOS tube is connected to the gate of the second NMOS tube, and receives the anode addressing signal TX_HS_EN_x. The gate of the third NMOS tube receives the inverted anode addressing signal TX_HS_EN__L_x, that is, TX_HS_EN__L_x is opposite in phase to TX_HS_EN_x.
[0103] Specifically, when TX_HS_EN_x is at a high level, the first NMOS tube and the second NMOS tube are turned on, and the current IL charges the anode energy storage element 132 through the turned-on first NMOS tube and the second NMOS tube; when TX_HS_EN_x is at a low level, TX_HS_EN__L_x is at a high level, the third NMOS tube is turned on and the second NMOS tube is in a reverse bias state.
