Methods and device for a readout circuit according to various aspects of the present invention may operate in conjunction with a storage device selectively coupled to an input signal having a voltage value within a first voltage range. A comparator may compare the voltage value of the input signal to a predetermined threshold voltage. A level-shifting circuit may shift the first voltage value of the input signal to a second voltage value within a second voltage range if the first voltage value of the input signal is greater than the predetermined threshold voltage.
