Abstract

A programmable memory device includes a read only memory (ROM) block to store instructions associated with functionality of the programmable memory device. The device includes a memory array having a set of reserved pages to store updates to be performed on the ROM block. The device includes a controller coupled to the ROM block and the memory array. The controller is to execute the instructions to: execute a set features command; program, in execution of the set features command, a set of sub-feature parameters to a specified feature address of the set of reserved pages, wherein the set of sub-feature parameters are to trigger operation within a ROM-emulated memory (REM) profile mode; and program a REM-profiled page of the set of reserved pages with REM data received from a host system.
