Abstract
A memory device is provided and includes a memory block that has a plurality of memory cells that are arranged in a plurality of word lines. The memory device also includes a plurality of word line switch transistors that are electrically coupled with the plurality of word lines. Some of the word line switch transistors have a first width and some of the word line switch transistors have a second width that is different than the first width. By providing the word line switch transistors with different widths, the size of a word line switch area in the memory device can be optimized.
