Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure configure a system component, such as a memory sub-system controller, to provide a configurable buffer device. The configuration buffer device is coupled between a processing device and a set of memory components. The configurable buffer device can be configured based on configuration data to couple a first quantity of front-side channels to a second quantity of back-side channels. The configuration data can be received from an external source, such as the processing device, or can be stored in a configuration register at manufacture. The configuration data can also be generated or determined based on one or more pins of the buffer device that control how many font-side channels and how many back-side channels to enable/disable.
