A storage device includes a solid-state storage medium having a plurality
of cells adapted to store data and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC)
coupled to at least one cell of the plurality of cells. The ADC includes
a first operating mode having a first number of quantization levels to
determine a value stored in the at least one cell based on a number of
possible values represented by the at least one cell. The ADC further
includes a second operating mode having a second number of quantization
levels to determine the value stored in the at least one cell, where the
second number of quantization levels is greater than the first number of
quantization levels. The ADC selectively enables the first or the second
operating mode as a selected operating mode and determines a signal
representative of the value stored in the at least one cell using the
selected operating mode.
