Hi Mallesh,

Normally you will get voltages around 3 to 4 volts only. Make sure that you are not using IR photodiodes. I’ve never tried with a laser beam but I think there can’t be any difference between sensing normal light and laser.

Please post your circuit diagram with the part number of the photodiode you are using.
