Abstract
Apparatuses and methods for controlling word lines and sense amplifiers in a semiconductor device are described. An example apparatus includes: a plurality of sense amplifier control circuits coupled to a plurality of corresponding sense amplifiers, wherein each sense amplifier control circuit of the plurality of sense amplifier control circuits provides one or more control signals to a corresponding sense amplifier of a plurality of sense amplifiers; and a driver that provides a selection signal to a plurality of word drivers responsive, at least in part, to a first control signal that is responsive to the one or more control signals from the plurality of sense amplifier control circuits.
