A search pattern is generated based on an input search word comprising a first sequence of bits. The search pattern comprises a representation of the input search word and a representation of an inverse of the input search word. The search pattern is provided as input to search lines of a ternary content-addressable memory (TCAM) block. A subset of the search lines is set to a logical high state based on a first portion of the input search word being designated as don't-care bits. The search pattern causes at least one string in the CAM block to be conductive and provide a signal in response to a data entry stored on the string comprising a second portion of the input search word that excludes the don't-care bits. A location of the data entry is determined and output.

Methods, systems, and devices for dynamically configuring transmission lines of a bus between two electronic devices (e.g., a controller and memory device) are described. A first device may determine a quantity of bits (e.g., data bits, control bits) to be communicated with a second device over a data bus. The first device may partition the data bus into a first set of transmission lines (e.g., based on the quantity of data bits) and a second set of transmission lines (e.g., based on the quantity of control bits). The first device may communicate the quantity of data bits over the first set of transmission lines and communicate the quantity of control bits over the second set of transmission lines. In some cases, the first device may repartition the data bus based on different quantities of data bits and control bits to be communicated with the second device at a different time.
