READ COMMAND FAULT DETECTION IN A MEMORY SYSTEM

Methods, systems, and devices for read command fault detection in a memory system are described. For example, a memory device may be configured to set a field of a register with a first value, corresponding to a state where a read command has not been decoded. If the memory device receives and decodes a read command from a host device, the memory device may set the field with a second value. The memory device indicate a value of the field of the register to the host device, which may be used to evaluate whether to process information interpreted over an interface between the host device and the memory device. For example, if the host device receives an indication of the second value, the host device may proceed with processing and, if the host device receives an indication of the first value, the host device may refrain from processing.
