摘要:
A word line decoder comprises a plurality of driver circuits, a plurality of word lines provided at respective outputs of the driver circuits, and a plurality of primary input lines coupled to the driver circuits and oriented in a first direction. The word line decoder also comprises a plurality of secondary input lines coupled to the driver circuits and oriented in the first direction. The word line decoder also comprises a local decode line coupled to each of the primary input lines. The word line decoder also comprises a decode line coupled to the local decode line and oriented in the first direction. A cluster decode line is coupled to the decode line. The word line decoder is configured to select at least one of the word lines based on signals provided by the cluster decode line and the secondary input lines.
