A Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) sensor system for a vehicle includes a light source to emit a beam, a first optical component to direct the beam emitted by the light source, an optical isolator to allow the beam directed by the first optical component to pass through the optical isolator in a first direction and to prevent light from being reflected back into the light source through the optical isolator in a second direction, a second optical component to direct the beam after having passed through the optical isolator, an optical chip assembly including a plurality of chips to receive the beam after having been directed by the second optical component and to emit the beam toward an object in an environment of the vehicle, and a receiver to receive a reflected beam from the object.
