Abstract

Apparatuses and methods are provided for reversing data stored in memory. An example apparatus comprises an array of memory cells, a first plurality of sensing components corresponding to a respective first plurality of columns of the array, a second plurality of sensing components corresponding to a respective second plurality of columns of the array, and a plurality of shared input/output (I/O) lines (which may be referred to as SIO lines). Each one of the plurality of SIO lines can be selectively coupled to a respective subset of the first plurality of sensing components and to a respective subset of the second plurality of sensing components. The apparatus can include a controller configured to control reversing a logical sequence of data stored in a group of memory cells coupled to a first access line of the array by performing a plurality of transfer operations via the plurality of SIO lines.
