Claim 5:
6. The system of claim 1, wherein the overvoltage detector circuit comprises a peak detector, a sample and hold device, a comparator, and a core circuit, wherein the peak detector is configured to monitor a voltage at the anode of the laser diode, wherein the peak detector and the sample and hold device are configured to determine when the voltage at the anode of the laser diode has reached the peak voltage, in response to determining when the voltage at the anode of the laser diode has reached the peak voltage, sending a value indicating the peak voltage to the comparator, wherein the comparator determines if the peak voltage is greater than the predetermined voltage, the comparator and the core circuit configured to generate the digital input value for controlling the bleed current.
