Abstract
A non-volatile memory device includes a substrate, a plurality of memory words, a control block, a first electrically-conducting link, and a plurality of second electrically-conducting links. The substrate includes a substantially planar surface. The memory words include B memory words disposed at the substantially planar surface. The control block includes B control elements disposed at the substantially planar surface. The first electrically-conducting link is disposed in a first plane parallel to the substantially planar surface. The first electrically-conducting link connects one of the B control elements to a memory word of the memory words. The plurality of second electrically-conducting links includes B-1 second electrically-conducting links respectively connecting B-1 remaining control elements to B-1 corresponding memory words of the plurality of memory words. The B-1 second electrically-conducting links are disposed above the first plane and physically extend at least partially over at least two memory words of the memory words.
