A circuit (e.g., for use in a time-of-flight camera projector module) may include a top metal layer having an anode and a cathode, one or more capacitors connected to the anode, a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser connected to the anode and the cathode, and a driver connected to the cathode. The circuit may further include a bottom metal layer connected to ground and arranged below the top metal layer, and a dielectric layer separating the top metal layer and the bottom metal layer. In some implementations, the dielectric layer has a thickness under sixty micrometers and a thermal resistance under fifteen degrees Celsius per watt. Accordingly, a current loop flowing vertically across the dielectric layer has a low self-inductance based on the thickness of the dielectric layer and the bottom metal layer is arranged to dissipate heat generated by the current loop flowing vertically across the dielectric layer.
