Abstract
The present invention relates generally to a photodiode and, in particular, to operating a photodiode in a zero-mode operation, where the photodiode operates at either zero current or zero voltage. Accordingly, there is provided a circuit configured for detecting light, including a photodiode; and a circuit configured for operating the photodiode at zero-mode.
