Abstract
A control mechanism may be implemented in a back-end of a memory sub-system to refresh rows of a memory device. Rows of the memory device can be refreshed based on a quantity of times the rows have been updated in a duration of time. Rows of the memory device can also be updated based on a duration of time between receipt of the activation command for the row and a pre-charge command for the row. Row of the memory device clan further be updated utilizing a pair of counters that implement a ping pong mechanism to retain data between different consecutive durations of time.
