Abstract
The column multiplexer is for a memory matrix having memory cells arranged in rows and columns. The multiplexer includes input lines for input signals, a plurality of output lines for electrical connection to the columns of the matrix, a selective connection device for selecting, in a first operation mode, at least one output line of the plurality of output lines in such a way as to connect it selectively to the input lines. In the first operation mode, the selective connection device selects a first group of output lines among the plurality of output lines, including at least three first lines.
