A user address is translated into a physical address using modular arithmetic to determine pointers (ysel, esg, psec) for specifying a given Erase Sector (ESec) within a given Erase Sector Group (ESG); a given Erase Sector Group (ESG) within a given Physical Sector (Psec); and a given Physical Sector (PSec) within the array.
