Abstract
An apparatus includes a control circuit and a plurality of non-volatile memory cells arranged in a plane of a memory die. The plane includes a first word line including a first word line portion coupled to a corresponding first group of the non-volatile memory cells, and a second word line including a second word line portion coupled to a corresponding second group of the non-volatile memory cells, the second word line different from the first word line. The control circuit is configured to apply a first voltage to the first word line portion and apply a second voltage to the second word line portion to concurrently read the first group of the non-volatile memory cells and the second group of the non-volatile memory cells. The first group of the non-volatile memory cells and the second group of the non-volatile memory cells each store less than a page of data.
