A circuit and method for controlling a wordline and/or stabilizing a memory cell comprising a first circuit and a second circuit. The first circuit may be configured to generate a control signal in response to (i) a select signal and (ii) an equalization signal. The second may be configured to generate an output signal in response to (i) the control signal and (ii) a global wordline signal. The output signal may be presented to one or more memory cells of a memory array.
