An example apparatus includes: a first voltage source, a first amplifier having a noninverting input adapted to be coupled to a photodiode anode and coupled to the first voltage source, an inverting input adapted to be coupled to a photodiode cathode, and an output, a first resistor coupled to the first amplifier inverting input and to the first amplifier output, a first capacitor coupled to the inverting input of the first amplifier and the first amplifier output, and a second voltage source different from the first voltage source. There is a second amplifier having a noninverting input, an inverting input and an output. The noninverting input is coupled to the output of the first amplifier, the inverting input is coupled to the second voltage source, and there is a second resistor coupled to the inverting input and the output of the second amplifier.
