Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices related to techniques for saturating a host interface are described. A set of data stored at a first memory device may be communicated over an interface during a read operation performed in response to receiving a read request associated with the set of data. A control component may determine if the interface entered an idle state during portions of the read operation. Based on detecting an idle state of the interface, the control component may transfer the set of data from the first memory device to a second memory device. After receiving a second read request for the set of data, the memory device may access the set of data from the second memory device and communicate the set of data over the interface, where the interface may remain in a saturated state throughout the second read operation.
