Abstract: Wordline driver circuitry drives a plurality of wordlines in a flash EEPROM memory array in a first mode which selects between a positive voltage and ground, and a second mode which selects between a negative voltage and ground. A first supply voltage selector supplies positive voltage during the first mode, and a second mode reference voltage, such as ground, in the second mode. A second supply voltage selector supplies the first mode reference voltage such as ground in the first mode, and the negative voltage during a second mode. An inverting driver has an input which receives a wordline select signal, and an output coupled to the wordline, a first supply voltage input connected to the first supply voltage selector, and second supply voltage input connected to the second supply voltage selector.
