Abstract
Methods and systems for digitally decoding integrated circuit blocks are provided. A method for decoding integrated circuit blocks may include providing a previous block output and an increment value input to a first identification block of a first integrated circuit block, providing the output of the first identification t block and the increment value input to one of a plurality of intermediate identification blocks, and providing an output of the last of the plurality of intermediate identification blocks and the increment value input to a last identification block, wherein the output of the last identification block is indicative of the number of integrated circuit blocks.
