Techniques are used to store information in a medium such as the memory cells of an integrated circuit, and also retrieval of information from the medium. The integrated circuit includes nonvolatile memory cells ( 416 ) capable of multilevel or analog voltage level storage. The integrated circuit may store or record information in analog or digital form, or both. Information is stored in and retrieved from the integrated circuit using a user-selected sampling frequency. The user's selection of the sampling frequency is stored within the integrated circuit. |
