Abstract
A machine memory includes multiple memory cells. Word lines, each with at least one word line driver, are coupled to the memory cells along rows. The word line drivers of at least some adjacent pairs of the word lines are coupled together by a pull-down transistor, in a manner that reduces read disturb of the memory cells.
