Abstract
Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having a CMOS-containing base containing wordline-driver-circuitry. The wordline-driver-circuitry is subdivided amongst horizontally-extending sub-wordline-driver (SWD) units. Memory cells are over the base, and are arranged in vertically-extending rows. Each of the memory cells includes an access device and a storage element coupled with the access device. Wordlines extend vertically along the rows. Each of the SWD units is associated with at least two of the wordlines and is configured to simultaneously activate the associated wordlines.
