ERROR TYPE INDICATION

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for error type indication are described. A memory device may detect an error while performing an error detection procedure for a codeword. The memory device may transmit to a host device one or more bits, which may be one or more error flags, that indicate the type of error detected by the memory device. By transmitting the one or more bits to a requesting device, for example a host device, the memory device may indicate the detected presence of a particular type of error in the set of data that is returned to the requesting device.
