Zusammenfassung:Systems and/or methods that facilitate accessing data in a memory are presented. The memory can be flash memory that includes a plurality of sectors in an array that can be associated with a decoder component that includes a regulator component, which facilitates performing read operations within a desired period of time. Each sector can be associated with a decoder subcomponent and associated regulator subcomponent. Parasitic resistance and capacitance elements can increase the further in distance a sector and associated decoder component are from a booster component, which is utilized to increase the voltage at a boost-strap node within each decoder subcomponent to facilitate performing read operations. To counter the parasitic elements, each regulator subcomponent can include one or more capacitors, where the number of capacitors and total capacitance value can be determined based on the distance the associated decoder subcomponent is from the booster component.
