Abstract:
A nonvolatile memory device may include a memory cell array having a plurality of nonvolatile memory cells arranged in a matrix including a plurality of rows of the nonvolatile memory cells. Each of a plurality of word lines may be coupled with nonvolatile memory cells of a respective row of the matrix. A row decoder may be coupled to the plurality of word lines with the row decoder being configured to disable at least one of the word lines using a row bias having a level that is adjusted responsive to changes in temperature. Such a nonvolatile memory device may operate with reduced standby currents.
