Known issues:

On PCB following fixes are needed:

  • U1 is OPA657U
  • U2 is OPA656U
  • R4 is 1G

Improvements:

  • biasing photodiodes to decrease capacitance
  • buffering opamp at analog output
  • 12V digital output (low on pulse detection, high on regular state)
  • 3 photodiodes instead of 2 for better sensitivity
