Abstract
Memory devices may include digital-to-analog converters configured to convert digital values to analog read voltages and to apply the analog read voltages to memory cells in different memory planes, and multiplexers to selectively couple a corresponding table to a page buffer for output of a code from an identified code-containing row of the corresponding tables for each of the different memory planes, with each code corresponding to a data state of one of the memory cells.
