Abstract: Apparatuses and techniques for implementing collision avoidance for bank-shared circuitry that supports usage-based disturbance mitigation are described. A memory device includes bank-shared circuitry coupled to multiple banks. The bank-shared circuitry can support usage-based disturbance mitigation. By using the bank-shared circuitry to service multiple banks, the memory device can have a smaller footprint and can be cheaper to manufacture compared to other memory devices with circuitry dedicated for each bank. To avoid conflicts associated with some sequences of commands that may relate to a same bank or different banks and utilize the bank-shared circuitry, the memory controller applies an appropriate timing offset (or delay) between commands. The timing offset allows the memory device time to finish utilizing the bank-shared circuitry for usage-based disturbance mitigation prior to utilizing the bank-shared circuitry in accordance with a subsequent command.
