Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for improved implicit ordered command handling are described. For instance, a memory device may receive, from a host device, a first command and a second command. The memory device may determine whether a first memory operation associated with the first command and a second memory operation associated with the second command are to be performed in an order relative to each other based on a first time when the first command is received relative to a second time when the second command is received. The memory device may select whether to perform a first memory access procedure or a second memory access procedure based on whether the first memory operation and the second memory operation are a same type of memory operation and on whether the first memory operation and the second memory operation are to be performed in the order relative to each other.
