| 1. An integrated circuit, comprising:
a cell array plane comprising a cell array having a plurality of cells, at least one of the plurality of cells coupled to
an address line;
a signal distribution plane monolithically integrally formed with the cell array plane and comprising a signal line distributing
a signal therealong; and
a switching plane monolithically integrally formed with and coupled between the cell array plane and the signal distribution
plane, the switching plane comprising a first switch having a first port coupled to the signal line in the signal distribution
plane, a second port coupled to the address line in the cell array plane, and a control port controlling a conduction state
of the first switch, the first switch being operable to selectively conduct a signal between the signal line and the address
line.
