Power behavior detection in a memory device

A method includes receiving, by a processing device, signaling indicative of a power cycle (PC) to a memory device (MD) having a first signal indicative of a Power On Operation and a second signal indicative of a Power Off Operation, and determining an Average Power On Time (APOT) of the MD based, at least in part, on a quantity of power cycles (n) to the MD over a predetermined time interval (PTI), and for each PC over the PTI, an amount of time between receipt of the first signal and the second signal. A sum of each of the amount of time between receipt of the first signal and the second signal in the PTI provides a total power on time (T) to the MD, and the APOT is equal to T/n. When the APOT is less than (
