d measurements in very low light (picoamps to nanoamps) and some reasonable bandwidth like 100 kHz to 1 MHz.
d round the output amp, and as I say, it's shot-noise limited above about 7 nA in a 1-MHz bandwidth (full scale is 1 uA). I could easily make a varian t that's quieter but slower (1 nA at the shot noise in 200 kHz, say), or wi th a bigger PD, or a lens to get more detection area. I might make those sp ecial-order options at first, like the fibre-coupled one.
You know much more about the PD market than I do. Are you going to have a variable gain? (different feedback R's) There is such a huge parameter sp ace for PD's. pA to mA, DC to "the moon" (GHz.) I have no idea where there is big demand .
Some configurable layout, with different options would be nice. I use one PCB for a few different PD's, different sizes, positions, R's and C's in the feedback path. Of course the options mean more traces and added capacitance where you don't want it.
