A light detection and ranging sensor system includes a laser source configured to output a source beam; a modulator configured to receive a modulation signal and modulate the source beam based on the modulation signal to produce a modulated beam; an amplifier configured to amplify the modulated beam; and a protection circuit configured to detect, by evaluating at least one of the modulation signal or a parameter of the modulated beam, a condition associated with the modulated beam; and control input of the modulated beam to the amplifier in response to detecting the condition.
