Abstract
A photodiode-based detection module may include at least one photodiode for detecting light. The photodiode-based detection module may also include a sensitivity damper configured to temporarily reduce the sensitivity of the at least one photodiode. The photodiode-based detection module may further include a controller configured to trigger the sensitivity damper to reduce a sensitivity of the at least one photodiode to less than a nominal sensitivity threshold.
