1. A system, comprising:
- a data location; and
a quantizing circuit coupled to the data location and configured to read a data value from the data location, wherein the quantizing circuit comprises;
a comparator configured to compare a first reference parameter with a first data location parameter measured from the data location, and to compare a second reference parameter with a second data location parameter measured from the data location, wherein the first reference parameter is utilized to generate the first data location parameter and the second reference parameter is utilized to generate the second data location parameter.

Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices for obtaining data from a data location. The method may include generating a first value by sensing a data location under a first condition and generating a second value by sensing the data location under a second condition. The method may further include combining the first value with the second value to identify data conveyed by the data location.

12. A system, comprising:
-
a data location; an analog-to-digital converter coupled to the data location, wherein the analog-to-digital converter comprises a delta sigma modulator; a digital filter coupled to the analog-to-digital converter; an interfuser coupled to the digital filter, wherein the interfuser is configured to receive a first value from the digital filter and a second value from the digital filter and combine the first value with the second value to identify data conveyed by the data location; and a controller coupled to the data location, wherein the controller is configured to vary a parameter of the analog-to-digital converter, wherein the controller is configured to vary a parameter of the delta-sigma modulator, wherein the interfuser is configured to combine the first and the second values when a parameter of the data location is varied and receive a third value when the parameter of the delta-sigma modulator is varied.
