a memory device coupled to the host, wherein the memory device includes an array of memory cells that include:

an error correction code (ECC) plane coupled to a first column plane via a first local access line;

a second column plane coupled to the ECC plane via a second local access line;

a first sub-access line driver (SAD) coupled to the first local access line;

a second SAD coupled to the second local access line;

a first number of access line contacts on a first portion of the first local access line between the first column plane and the first SAD;

a second number of access line contacts on a second portion of the first local access line between the first SAD and the ECC plane;

the first number of access line contacts on a first portion of the second local access line between the column data plane and the second SAD; and

the second number of access line contacts on a second portion of the second local access line between the second SAD and the ECC plane, wherein the first number of access line contacts is determined by data corresponding to a first function of the first column plane and the second column plane, and the second number of access line contacts is determined by data corresponding to a second function of the ECC plane.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the first function has a first importance and the second function has a second importance.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the first importance corresponds to a lower level of importance than the second importance.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the first importance corresponds to a lower number of access line contacts than the second importance.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein increasing the number of access line contacts increases a reliability of data of an access line coupled to the access line contacts.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein increasing the number of access line contacts decreases an error rate of the data of an access line coupled to the access line contacts.

14. The system of claim 8 , wherein a first access line corresponding to the data corresponding to the first function is coupled to the first SAD via the first number of access line contacts.

15. The system of claim 8 , wherein a second access line corresponding to the data corresponding to the second function is coupled to the second SAD via the second number of access line contacts.

16. An apparatus, comprising:

an array of memory cells, including:

a data core;

a local access line coupled to the data core;

an error correction code (ECC) core coupled to the local access line; and

a sub-access line driver (SAD) coupled to the local access line, wherein:

a first portion of the local access line between the SAD and the data core includes a first access line contact, wherein the first access line contact has a first size;

a second portion of the local access line between the SAD and the ECC core includes a second access line contact, wherein the second access line contact has a second size; and

the first size of the first access line contact is determined by data corresponding to a first function of the data core and the second size of the second access line contact is determined by data corresponding to a second function of the ECC core.

17. The apparatus of claim 16 , wherein increasing the second size of the second access line contact increases a reliability of data travelling through an access line coupled to the second access line contact.
