Abstract
A decoder in an integrated circuit memory device having: a positive section having a first input line; a negative section having a second input line; and an output line connected from both the positive section and the negative section to a voltage driver connected to a memory cell. The positive section and the negative sections are controlled by a polarity control signal. When the polarity control signal indicates positive polarity, the positive section drives the output line according to signals received in the first input line; and when the polarity control signal indicates negative polarity, the negative section drives the output line according to signals received in the second input line.
