Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for status check using chip enable pin are described. An apparatus may include a memory device, a pin coupled with the memory device, and a driver coupled with the pin and configured to bias the pin to a first a voltage or a second voltage based on a status of the memory device. The status may indicate, for example, whether the memory device is available to receive a command. The driver may bias the pin to a first voltage based on a first status of the memory device indicating that the memory device is busy. Additionally, or alternatively, the driver may bias the pin to a second voltage based on a second status of the memory device indicating that the memory device is available to receive the command. In some cases, the pin may be an example of a chip enable pin.
