An example apparatus for memory addressing can include an array of memory cells. The apparatus can include a memory cache configured to store at least a portion of an address mapping table. The address mapping table can include a number of regions corresponding to respective amounts of logical address space of the array. The address mapping table can map translation units (TUs) to physical locations in the array. Each one of the number of regions can include a first table. The first table can include entries corresponding to respective TU logical address of the respective amounts of logical address space, respective pointers, and respective offsets. Each one of the number of regions can include a second table. The second table can include entries corresponding to respective physical address ranges of the array. The entries of the second table can include respective physical address fields and corresponding respective count fields.
