A memory includes a plurality of word line drivers with each driver controlling the voltage of a word line and the voltage of a select line during a memory operation. The driver operates to couple the select line to a first voltage setting terminal when the word line is asserted and couple the select line to a second voltage setting terminal when the word line is not asserted.
