Abstract

A nonvolatile memory includes a memory array having a plurality of memory cells, a select gate driver configured to provide a select gate voltage to a select gate of a first memory cell of the plurality of memory cells, and a control gate driver configured to use the select gate voltage to provide a control gate voltage to a control gate of a second memory cell of the plurality of memory cells.
