Abstract
Semiconductor devices, methods, and memory systems for managing logic units are provided. In one aspect, a semiconductor device includes a logic unit associated with an identifier (ID). The logic unit includes a control logic and a reporting unit coupled to the control logic. The semiconductor device also includes a control interface coupled to the reporting unit. The control logic is configured to: receive, from the control interface, an enumeration command in an iteration; drive, using the reporting unit, one or more bits of the ID to the control interface; and in response to determining that a received bit from the control interface mismatches a driven bit of the ID, stop driving one or more additional bits of the ID to the control interface.
