Abstract: A memory card can include memory and a memory controller. The controller can receive a general command to increase the busy time of any subsequent access command. Subsequently, the controller can receive an access command from a host to access the memory. The controller can then place the memory in a busy state for a time duration based on the general command, such that the memory refrains from processing read or write commands for the time duration. The timeout measure is the busy time between the time when the access command is issued and the host timeout.

Abstract: A processing device of a system receives a request to access a selected sector in a memory component. The selected sector is associated with a sector number. The processing device determines a virtual block corresponding to the selected sector. The virtual block is associated with a misalignment factor and a misalignment counter. The processing device determines if the misalignment counter satisfies a threshold criterion. In response to the misalignment counter satisfying the threshold criterion, the processing device generates an updated sector number by shifting the sector number by the misalignment factor and performs the access to the selected sector using the updated sector number. In response to the misalignment counter not satisfying the threshold criterion, the processing device updates the misalignment counter and performs the access to the selected sector using the sector number.
