Techniques and mechanisms to identify an error to a host that controls a memory component based on communications based on a Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) Unified Protocol specification. In an embodiment, the memory component detects an error based on a data frame sent to the memory component from the host. In response to detecting the error, the memory device sends to the host a negative acknowledgment control (NAC) message including a negative acknowledgment identifier and an error code identifying an error type of the detected error. The NAC message is based on a NAC frame structure defined by the MIPI Unified Protocol specification. In another embodiment, the host receives the NAC message and stores error information based on the error code of the NAC message. The stored error information is accessible for purposes such as performance evaluation of the host and debugging. 本文描述了在统协议通信中交换错误信息的装置、方法和系统。公开用于以基于移动产业处理器接口(MIPI)统协议规范的通信为基础向控制存储器组件的主机标识错误的技术和机制。在种实施方式中，存储器组件基于从主机发送给存储器组件的数据帧检测错误。响应于检
