The output signal (current
) of a reverse biased (with a voltage
) photodiode, on which light is incident, is fed to an amplifier (see figure). The output voltage is digitized by a 10 bit Analog to Digital converter (ADC) which has a reference voltage of 5 V. The smallest current
which can be measured by the circuit in nano-Amperes (rounded off to one decimal place) is _____.
