Abstract: A word line regulator provides a write word line voltage for an asserted word line and includes a write replica circuit, a reference current path, and a regulator circuit. The write replica circuit is a replica of a write path for writing from a low to high resistance value of a resistive memory element of a memory cell. The word line regulator regulates the word line voltage at a value during the write operation of a low to high resistance value such that a select transistor of the memory cell is used as a source follower to regulate a first node of a resistive element of the memory cell being written. The first node is at a higher write voltage than a second node of the resistive element during the write operation, and the first node is located in a write path between the select transistor and the second node.
