Abstract
Circuit for the regulation of the word line voltage in a memory, including a voltage regulator suitable to generate an output regulated voltage to be supplied to one or more word lines of the memory when said one or more word lines are being selected, and charge accumulation means that are selectively connectable with the output of the voltage regulator and suitable to accumulate a compensation charge for a voltage drop that takes place on said regulated voltage upon the selection of said one or more word lines of the memory.
