Abstract:
Memory devices, and methods of operating similar memory devices, include an array of memory cells comprising a plurality of access lines each configured for biasing control gates of a respective plurality of memory cells of the array of memory cells, wherein the respective plurality of memory cells for one access line of the plurality of access lines is mutually exclusive from the respective plurality of memory cells for each remaining access line of the plurality of access lines, and a controller having a plurality of selectively-enabled operating modes and configured to selectively operate the memory device using two or more concurrently enabled operating modes of the plurality of selectively-enabled operating modes for access of the array of memory cells, with each of the enabled operating modes of the two of more concurrently enabled operating modes utilizing an assigned respective portion of the array of memory cells.
