Abstract: Described apparatuses and methods relate to erroneous select die access (SDA) detection for a memory system. A memory system may include a memory controller and a memory device that are capable of implementing an SDA protocol that enables selective memory die access to multiple memory devices that couple to a command bus. A memory device can include logic that determines if signaling that conflicts with the SDA protocol is detected. If it is determined that conflicting signaling is detected, the logic may provide an indication of the conflicted signaling. In doing so, the erroneous SDA detection described herein may reduce the likelihood of a memory device erroneously masking memory dice, thereby limiting the memory device from exhibiting unexpected, and in some cases, dangerous behavior.
