Abstract

A system includes a memory device having one or more planes and a first set of voltage regulators coupled to each plane of the one or more planes, where the first set of voltage regulators is shared by the one or more planes. The system includes a second set of voltage regulators coupled to a plane of the one or more planes configured to supply a respective voltage to one or more conductive lines responsive to a memory access operation request. The system includes a switch, at the plane of the one or more planes, coupled with a first voltage regulator of the first set of voltage regulators, a second voltage regulator of the second set of voltage regulators, and a first conductive line, the switch configured to selectively couple the second voltage regulator of the second set of voltage regulators to the first conductive line.
