An apparatus includes a first data plane, a second data plane, and a sub-access line driver (SAD), all coupled to a local access line. A first portion of the local access line between the SAD and the first data plane includes a first number of access line contacts, a second portion of the local access line between the SAD and the second data plane includes a second number of access line contacts, and the first number of access line contacts are determined by data corresponding to a first function of the first data plane and the second number of access line contacts are determined by data corresponding to a second function of the data plane.
