INITIALIZATION TECHNIQUES FOR MEMORY DEVICES

Methods, systems, and devices for initialization techniques for memory devices are described. A memory system may include a memory array on a first die and a controller on a second die, where the second die is coupled with the first die. The controller may perform an initialization procedure based on operating instructions stored within the memory system. For example, the controller may read a first set of operating instructions from read-only memory on the second die. The controller may obtain a second set of operating instructions stored at a memory block of the memory array on the first die, with the memory block indicated by the first set of operating instructions. The controller may complete or at least further the initialization procedure based on the second set of operating instructions.
