Method and apparatus for outputting data from a memory array having a plurality of non-volatile memory cells arranged into rows and columns. In accordance with various embodiments, charge is stored in a volatile memory cell connected to the memory array, and the stored charge is subsequently discharged from the volatile memory cell through a selected column. In some embodiments, the volatile memory cell is a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) cell from a row of the cells with each DRAM cell along the row coupled to a respective column in the memory array, and each column of non-volatile memory cells comprises Flash memory cells connected in a NAND configuration.
