| 摘要 | A storage device includes a storage array having a group of storage elements. Each storage element can written to a discrete set of physical states. A read circuit selects one or more storage elements and generates, for each selected storage element, an analog signal representative of the physical state of the selected storage element. A signal processing circuit processes the analog signal to generate a plurality of outputs, with each output representing a degree of an association of the selected storage element with a different subset of one or more of the discrete set of physical states. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A storage device comprising: a storage array including a plurality of storage elements, each storage element operable to be written to one of a discrete set of physical states; a read circuit for selecting one or more storage elements and generating, for each selected storage element, an analog signal representative of the physical state of the selected storage element; and an analog signal processing circuit for processing the analog signal to generate a plurality of outputs, each output representing a degree of an association of the selected storage element with a different subset of one or more of the discrete set of physical states. | ||
