Abstract

A flash memory capable of utilizing one driving voltage output circuit to drive a plurality of word line drivers. The flash memory has a row driver for driving a predetermined word line to approach a predetermined voltage level. The row driver has a plurality of word line drivers, and each word line driver has a plurality of driving units and a driving voltage output circuit. The driving voltage output circuit is used for determining operating voltage levels of a plurality of driving voltages according to a plurality of second decoded signals without utilizing a plurality of first decoded signals, and for outputting a predetermined driving voltage to drive the predetermined word line to approach the predetermined voltage level when a driving unit electrically connected to the predetermined word line is turned on for connecting the predetermined word line and the driving voltage output circuit.
