Methods, systems, and devices for memory clock management and estimation procedures are described. A host device may determine a quantity of clock cycles associated with a duration for accessing a memory cell of a memory array based on truncating a value of a first parameter associated with another duration for a clock to perform a clock cycle. The host device may estimate a value of a second parameter related to (e.g., inversely proportional) to the truncated value of the first parameter and related to (e.g., directly proportional) to a correction factor, and may adjust (e.g., truncate) a third parameter to determine the quantity of clock cycles. Additionally or alternatively, the host device may adjust (e.g., perform a ceiling operation on) the second parameter to determine the quantity of clock cycles. The host device may access the memory cell based on the quantity of clock cycles.
