Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for triggering a refresh for non-volatile memory are described. A host system may communicate with a memory system, where the host system and memory system may be included within a vehicle (e.g., an automotive system). The host system may receive an indication that the vehicle is powering down and may enter a power off state in response to the indication. The host system may detect a trigger (e.g., using a time or temperature input) to switch back to a power on state while the vehicle is powered down, the trigger associated with performing a refresh operation at the memory system. The host system may enter the power on state and may transmit a power on command to the memory system. The memory system may perform the refresh operation on one or more memory cells while the vehicle remains in the powered down state.
