Abstract
A method includes, in an array of analog memory cells that are arranged in rows associated with respective word lines, reading a first group of the memory cells in a selected word line, including one or more memory cells that store a status of at least one word line in the array other than the selected word line. A readout configuration for a second group of the memory cells is set responsively to the read status. The second group of the memory cells is read using the readout configuration.
