Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for bias control for a memory device are described. A memory system may store indication of whether data is coherent. In some examples, the indication may be stored as metadata, where a first value indicates that the data is not coherent and a second value or a third value indicate that the data is coherent. When a processing unit or other component of the memory system processes a command to access data, the memory system may operate according to a device bias mode when the indication is the first value, and according to a host bias mode when the indication is the second value or the third value.
