Methods, systems, and devices for setting switching for single-level cells (SLCs) are described. A memory system may receive an access command from a host. The access command may correspond to an SLC block or to a multiple-level cell block. If the access command corresponds to an SLC block, the memory system may modify the access command to include one or more bits indicating a setting to use for performing the access operation corresponding to the access command. The setting may define one or more operating parameters for performing the access operation. The memory system may use bits to indicate the setting that are used to indicate a page address for multiple-level cell blocks. The memory system may issue the access command to a memory device, which may perform the access operation using the setting indicated in the one or more bits included by the memory system.

Setting switching for single-level cells

A programmable memory device includes a ROM block to store instructions associated with functionality of the programmable memory device, a memory array having reserved pages to store updates to be performed on the ROM block, and a controller coupled to the ROM block and the memory array. The controller is to, in response to receipt of a remote command from a vendor server via a host system, execute the instructions to perform operations including: executing a set features command to access the set of reserved pages, as an extension to one time programmable mode; programming a set of sub-feature parameters to a specified feature address of the reserved pages, where the set of sub-feature parameters are to trigger operation within a ROM-emulated memory (REM) profile mode; and programming a REM-profiled page of the reserved pages with REM data received from the vendor server via the host system.
