An aspect a bit selection path configured to propagate a bit selection signal. The bit selection path includes bit selection delay circuitry defining a bit selection delay. The memory array includes a row selection path configured to propagate a row selection signal. The row selection path includes row selection delay circuitry defining a row selection delay. The memory array includes local selection circuitry. The local selection circuitry is configured to receive the bit selection signal from the bit selection path before the row selection signal from the row selection path according to the bit selection delay and the row selection delay.
