Summary:A memory device includes a memory sector including a memory sector, a row of select transistors and a number of drivers. The memory sector includes a plurality of word lines each couples to a plurality of memory cells. The row of select transistors select the memory sector and separate the memory sector from an immediately adjacent memory sector in the memory device. Each of the number of drivers is coupled to one of the plurality of word lines. A first one of the drivers is coupled to a first one of the word lines to receive a first control signal to conduct the first word line and a voltage source, and a second one of the drivers is coupled to a second one of the word lines to receive a second control signal to disconnect the second word line from the voltage source.
