Apparatuses and methods for separate write enable for single-pass access of data, metadata, and parity information

A method comprising:

• activating a first write enable signal and a second write enable signal responsive to a write operation, wherein the second write enable signal has a first state or a second state based on a column address;
• writing data to selected bit lines in a first column plane responsive to the first write enable signal;
• and
• writing metadata to a first portion or a second portion of selected bit lines in a second column plane responsive to the state of the second write enable signal.

An apparatus comprising:

• a first column plane comprising:
• a first local input/output (LIO) line coupled to a first read/write transfer gate;
• a second LIO line coupled to a second read/write transfer gate;
• a second column plane comprising:
• a third LIO line coupled to a third read/write transfer gate;
• a fourth LIO line coupled to a fourth read/write transfer gate;
• and
• a column decoder configured to provide a first write enable signal to the first column plane and a second write enable signal to the second column plane, wherein the first and the second read/write transfer gate are activated by the first write enable signal and the third or the fourth read/write transfer gate are activated by the second write enable signal.
