It contains a 4096-bit user EEPROM. The memory is organized as 128 blocks of 32 bits. The SRI4K is accessed via the 13.56 MHz carrier. Incoming data are demodulated and decoded from the received amplitude shift keying (ASK) modulation signal and outgoing data are generated by load variation using bit phase shift keying (BPSK) coding of a 847 kHz subcarrier. The received ASK wave is 10% modulated. The data transfer rate between the SRI4K and the reader is 106 kbit/s in both reception and emission modes. The SRI4K follows the ISO 14443 part 2 type B recommendation for the radio-frequency power and signal interface. Figure 1. Logic diagram SRI4K Power Supply Regulator 4 Kbit User EEPROM AC1 ASK Demodulator BPSK Load Modulator AC0 AI10878 The SRI4K is specifically designed for short range applications that need re-usable products. The SRI4K includes an anticollision mechanism that allows it to detect and select tags present at the same time within range of the reader. The anticollision is based on a probabilistic scanning method using slot markers. Using the STMicroelectronics single chip coupler, CRX14, it is easy to design a reader and build a contactless system. Table 1. Signal names Signal names Description AC1 Antenna coil AC0 Antenna coil Doc 11605 Rev 5 7/46 Signal description SRI4K The SRI4K contactless EEPROM can be randomly read and written in block mode (each block containing 32 bits). The instruction set includes the following nine commands: ● Read_block ● Write_block ● Initiate ● Pcall16 ● Slot_marker ● Select ● Completion ● Reset_to_inventory ● Get_UID The SRI4K memory is organized in three areas, as described in Figure 3. The first area is a resettable OTP (one time programmable) area in which bits can only be switched from 1 to 0. Using a special command, it is possible to erase all bits of this area to 1. The second area provides two 32-bit binary counters which can only be decremented from FFFF FFFFh to 0000 0000h, and gives a capacity of 4,294,967,296 units per counter. The last area is the EEPROM memory. It is accessible by block of 32 bits and includes an auto-erase cycle during each Write_block command. Figure 2.

AC1 and AC0 must be directly bonded to the antenna. 8/46 Doc 11605 Rev 5 SRI4K Data transfer 3 Data transfer 3.1 Input data transfer from the reader to the SRI4K (request frame) The reader must generate a 13.56 MHz sinusoidal carrier frequency at its antenna, with enough energy to “remote-power” the memory. The energy received at the SRI4K’s antenna is transformed into a supply voltage by a regulator, and into data bits by the ASK demodulator. For the SRI4K to decode correctly the information it receives, the reader must 10% amplitude-modulate the 13.56 MHz wave before sending it to the SRI4K. This is represented in Figure 3. The data transfer rate is 106 Kbits/s. Figure 3. 10% ASK modulation of the received wave DATA BIT TO TRANSMIT TO THE SRI4K 10% ASK MODULATION OF THE 13.56MHz WAVE, GENERATED BY THE READER Transfer time for one data bit is 1/106 kHz AI10880 3.1.1 Character transmission format for request frame The SRI4K transmits and receives data bytes as 10-bit characters, with the least significant bit (b0) transmitted first, as shown in Figure 4. Each bit duration, an ETU (elementary time unit), is equal to 9.44 µs (1/106 kHz). These characters, framed by a start of frame (SOF) and an end of frame (EOF), are put together to form a command frame as shown in Figure 10. A frame includes an SOF, commands, addresses, data, a CRC and an EOF as defined in the ISO 14443-3 Type B Standard. If an error is detected during data transfer, the SRI4K does not execute the command, but it does not generate an error frame. Figure 4.

Retro-modulation is obtained by modifying the SRI4K current consumption at the antenna (load modulation). The load modulation causes a variation at the reader antenna by inductive coupling. With appropriate detector circuitry, the reader is able to pick up information from the SRI4K. To improve loadmodulation detection, data is transmitted using a BPSK encoded, 847 kHz subcarrier frequency ƒs as shown in Figure 7, and as specified in the ISO 14443-2 Type B Standard. Figure 7.

The transmitted frames are made up of an SOF, data, a CRC and an EOF (Figure 10). As with an input data transfer, if an error occurs, the reader does not issue an error code to the SRI4K, but it should be able to detect it and manage the situation. The data transfer rate is 106 Kbits/second. 3.2.2 Answer start of frame The SOF described in Figure 8 is composed of: ● followed by 10 ETUs at logic-0 ● followed by 2 ETUs at logic-1 Figure 8.

This delay allows the reader to switch from Transmission to Reception mode. It is repeated after each frame. After t0, the 13.5 6MHz carrier frequency is modulated by the SRI4K at 847 kHz for a period of t1 = 128/ƒS to allow the reader to synchronize. After t1, the first phase transition generated by the SRI4K forms the start bit (‘0’) of the answer SOF. After the falling edge of the answer EOF, the reader waits a minimum time, t2, before sending a new request frame to the SRI4K. Figure 10.

For further information, please see Appendix A. The initial register contents are all 1s: FFFFh. The two-byte CRC is present in every request and in every answer frame, before the EOF. The CRC is calculated on all the bytes between SOF (not included) and the CRC field. Upon reception of a request from a reader, the SRI4K verifies that the CRC value is valid. If it is invalid, the SRI4K discards the frame and does not answer the reader. Upon reception of an answer from the SRI4K, the reader should verify the validity of the CRC. In case of error, the actions to be taken are the reader designer’s responsibility. The CRC is transmitted with the least significant byte first and each byte is transmitted with the least significant bit first. Figure 11.

A Write_block command will not erase the previous contents of the block as the write cycle is not preceded by an auto-erase cycle. This feature can be used to reset selected bits from 1 to 0. All bits previously at 0 remain unchanged. When the 32 bits of a block are all at 0, the block is empty, and cannot be updated any more.

An auto-erase cycle is added each time the SRI4K detects a Reload command. The Reload command is implemented through a specific update of the 32-bit binary counter located at block address 6 (see “Section 4.2: 32bit binary counters” for details). Figure 14.

The SRI4K uses dedicated logic that only allows the update of a counter if the new value is lower than the previous one. This feature allows the application to count down by steps of 1 or more. The initial value in Counter 5 is FFFF FFFEh and is FFFF FFFFh in Counter 6. When the value displayed is 0000 0000h, the counter is empty and cannot be reloaded. The counter is updated by issuing the Write_block command to block address 5 or 6, depending on which counter is to be updated. The Write_block command writes the new 32-bit value to the counter block address. Figure 16 shows examples of how the counters operate. The counter programming cycles are protected by automated antitearing logic. This function allows the counter value to be protected in case of power down within the programming cycle. In case of power down, the counter value is not updated and the previous value continues to be stored. Figure 15.

Bits b31 to b21 act as an 11-bit Reload counter; whenever one of these 11 bits is updated, the SRI4K detects the change and adds an Erase cycle to the Write_block command for locations 0 to 4 (see the “Resettable OTP area” paragraph). The Erase cycle remains active until a Power-off or a Select command is issued. The SRI4K’s resettable OTP area can be reloaded up to 2 047 times (211-1). 16/46 Doc 11605 Rev 5 SRI4K 4.3 Memory mapping EEPROM area The 121 blocks between addresses 7 and 127 are EEPROM blocks of 32 bits each (484 bytes in total). (See Figure 17 for a map of the area.) These blocks can be accessed using the Read_block and Write_block commands. The Write_block command for the EEPROM area always includes an auto-erase cycle prior to the write cycle. Blocks 7 to 15 can be write-protected. Write access is controlled by the 8 bits of the OTP_Lock_Reg located at block address 255 (see “OTP_Lock_Reg” for details). Once protected, these blocks (7 to 15) cannot be unprotected. Figure 17.

Selected bits can thus be set from 1 to 0. All bits previously at 0 remain unchanged. Once all the 32 bits of a block are at 0, the block is empty and cannot be updated any more.

They control the write access to the 9 EEPROM blocks with addresses 7 to 15 as follows: ● When b24 is at 0, blocks 7 and 8 are write-protected ● When b25 is at 0, block 9 is write-protected ● When b26 is at 0, block 10 is write-protected ● When b27 is at 0, block 11 is write-protected ● When b28 is at 0, block 12 is write-protected ● When b29 is at 0, block 13 is write-protected ● When b30 is at 0, block 14 is write-protected ● When b31 is at 0, block 15 is write-protected. The OTP_Lock_Reg bits cannot be erased. Once write-protected, EEPROM blocks behave like ROM blocks and cannot be unprotected. 4.4.2 Fixed Chip_ID (Option) The SRI4K is provided with an anticollision feature based on a random 8-bit Chip_ID. Prior to selecting an SRI4K, an anticollision sequence has to be run to search for the Chip_ID of the SRI4K. This is a very flexible feature, however the searching loop requires time to run. For some applications, much time could be saved by knowing the value of the SRI4K Chip_ID beforehand, so that the SRI4K can be identified and selected directly without having to run an anticollision sequence. This is why the SRI4K was designed with an optional mask setting used to program a fixed 8-bit Chip_ID to bits b7 to b0 of the system area. When the fixed Chip_ID option is used, the random Chip_ID function is disabled. 18/46 Doc 11605 Rev 5 SRI4K 5 SRI4K operation SRI4K operation All commands, data and CRC are transmitted to the SRI4K as 10-bit characters using ASK modulation. The start bit of the 10 bits, b0, is sent first. The command frame received by the SRI4K at the antenna is demodulated by the 10% ASK demodulator, and decoded by the internal logic. Prior to any operation, the SRI4K must have been selected by a Select command. Each frame transmitted to the SRI4K must start with a start of frame, followed by one or more data characters, two CRC bytes and the final end of frame. When an invalid frame is decoded by the SRI4K (wrong command or CRC error), the memory does not return any error code. When a valid frame is received, the SRI4K may have to return data to the reader. In this case, data is returned using BPSK encoding, in the form of 10-bit characters framed by an SOF and an EOF. The transfer is ended by the SRI4K sending the 2 CRC bytes and the EOF. Doc 11605 Rev 5 19/46 SRI4K states 6 SRI4K SRI4K states The SRI4K can be switched into different states. Depending on the current state of the SRI4K, its logic will only answer to specific commands. These states are mainly used during the anticollision sequence, to identify and to access the SRI4K in a very short time. The SRI4K provides 6 different states, as described in the following paragraphs and in Figure 19. 6.1 Power-off state The SRI4K is in Power-off state when the electromagnetic field around the tag is not strong enough. In this state, the SRI4K does not respond to any command. 6.2 Ready state When the electromagnetic field is strong enough, the SRI4K enters the Ready state. After Power-up, the Chip_ID is initialized with a random value. The whole logic is reset and remains in this state until an Initiate() command is issued. Any other command will be ignored by the SRI4K. 6.3 Inventory state The SRI4K switches from the Ready to the Inventory state after an Initiate() command has been issued. In Inventory state, the SRI4K will respond to any anticollision commands: Initiate(), Pcall16() and Slot_marker(), and then remain in the Inventory state. It will switch to the Selected state after a Select(Chip_ID) command is issued, if the Chip_ID in the command matches its own. If not, it will remain in Inventory state. 6.4 Selected state In Selected state, the SRI4K is active and responds to all Read_block(), Write_block() and Get_UID() commands. When an SRI4K has entered the Selected state, it no longer responds to anticollision commands. So that the reader can access another tag, the SRI4K can be switched to the Deselected state by sending a Select(Chip_ID2) with a Chip_ID that does not match its own, or it can be placed in Deactivated state by issuing a Completion() command. Only one SRI4K can be in Selected state at a time. 6.5 Deselected state Once the SRI4K is in Deselected state, only a Select(Chip_ID) command with a Chip_ID matching its own can switch it back to Selected state. All other commands are ignored. 6.6 Deactivated state When in this state, the SRI4K can only be turned off. All commands are ignored. 20/46 Doc 11605 Rev 5 SRI4K SRI4K states Figure 19.

When known, the Chip_ID is used to select an SRI4K individually, and access its memory. The anticollision sequence is managed by the reader through a set of commands described in Section 5: SRI4K operation: ● Initiate() ● Pcall16() ● Slot_marker(). The reader is the master of the communication with one or more SRI4K device(s). It initiates the tag communication activity by issuing an Initiate(), Pcall16() or Slot_marker() command to prompt the SRI4K to answer. During the anticollision sequence, it might happen that two or more SRI4K devices respond simultaneously, so causing a collision. The command set allows the reader to handle the sequence, to separate SRI4K transmissions into different time slots. Once the anticollision sequence has completed, SRI4K communication is fully under the control of the reader, allowing only one SRI4K to transmit at a time. The Anticollision scheme is based on the definition of time slots during which the SRI4K devices are invited to answer with minimum identification data: the Chip_ID. The number of slots is fixed at 16 for the Pcall16() command. For the Initiate() command, there is no slot and the SRI4K answers after the command is issued. SRI4K devices are allowed to answer only once during the anticollision sequence. Consequently, even if there are several SRI4K devices present in the reader field, there will probably be a slot in which only one SRI4K answers, allowing the reader to capture its Chip_ID. Using the Chip_ID, the reader can then establish a communication channel with the identified SRI4K. The purpose of the anticollision sequence is to allow the reader to select one SRI4K at a time. The SRI4K is given an 8-bit Chip_ID value used by the reader to select only one among up to 256 tags present within its field range. The Chip_ID is initialized with a random value during the Ready state, or after an Initiate() command in the Inventory state. The four least significant bits (b0 to b3) of the Chip_ID are also known as the Chip_slot_number. This 4-bit value is used by the Pcall16() and Slot_marker() commands during the anticollision sequence in the Inventory state. Figure 20. SRI4K Chip_ID description b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0 8-bit Chip_ID b0 to b3: Chip_slot_number ai07668b Each time the SRI4K receives a Pcall16() command, the Chip_slot_number is given a new 4-bit random value. If the new value is 0000b, the SRI4K returns its whole 8-bit Chip_ID in its answer to the Pcall16() command. The Pcall16() command is also used to define the slot number 0 of the anticollision sequence. When the SRI4K receives the Slot_marker(SN) command, it compares its Chip_slot_number with the Slot_number parameter (SN). If they match, the SRI4K returns its Chip_ID as a response to the command. If they do not, the SRI4K does not answer. The Slot_marker(SN) command is used to define all the anticollision slot numbers from 1 to 15. 22/46 Doc 11605 Rev 5 S O F Doc 11605 Rev 5 Time Comment Timing SRI devices Reader PCALL 16 Request E O F No collision t2 E O F <-> Answer Chip_ID X0h <-> S O F > t0 + t1 < Slot 0 S O F Slot Marker (1) E O F t0 + t1 <-> < Answer Chip_ID X1h Collision S Answer O Chip_ID F X1h S O F Slot 1 E O F E O F t2 <-> > S O F Slot Marker (2) E O F t3 > No Answer < < Slot 2 > S O F ... ...

Only SRI4K devices in Inventory state will respond to the Pcall16() and Slot_marker(SN) anticollision commands. A new SRI4K introduced in the field range during the anticollision sequence will not be taken into account as it will not respond to the Pcall16() or Slot_marker(SN) command (Ready state). To be considered during the anticollision sequence, it must have received the Initiate() command and entered the Inventory state. Table 4 shows the elements of a standard anticollision sequence. (See Figure 22 for an example.) Table 4. Standard anticollision sequence Step 1 Init: Send Initiate(). – If no answer is detected, go to step1. – If only 1 answer is detected, select and access the SRI4K. After accessing the SRI4K, deselect the tag and go to step1. – If a collision (many answers) is detected, go to step2. Step 2 Slot 0 Send Pcall16(). – If no answer or collision is detected, go to step3. – If 1 answer is detected, store the Chip_ID, Send Select() and go to step3. Step 3 Slot 1 Send Slot_marker(1). – If no answer or collision is detected, go to step4. – If 1 answer is detected, store the Chip_ID, Send Select() and go to step4. Step 4 Slot 2 Send Slot_marker(2). – If no answer or collision is detected, go to step5. – If 1 answer is detected, store the Chip_ID, Send Select() and go to step5. Step N Send Slot_marker(3 up to 14) ... Slop N – If no answer or collision is detected, go to stepN+1. – If 1 answer is detected, store the Chip_ID, Send Select() and go to stepN+1. Send Slot_marker(15). Step 17 Slot 15 – If no answer or collision is detected, go to step18. – If 1 answer is detected, store the Chip_ID, Send Select() and go to step18. Step 18 All the slots have been generated and the Chip_ID values should be stored into the reader memory. Issue the Select(Chip_ID) command and access each identified SRI4K one by one. After accessing each SRI4K, switch them into Deselected or Deactivated state, depending on the application needs. – If collisions were detected between Step2 and Step17, go to Step2. – If no collision was detected between Step2 and Step17, go to Step1. After each Slot_marker() command, there may be several, one or no answers from the SRI4K devices. The reader must handle all the cases and store all the Chip_IDs, correctly decoded. At the end of the anticollision sequence, after Slot_marker(15), the reader can start working with one SRI4K by issuing a Select() command containing the desired Chip_ID. If a collision is detected during the anticollision sequence, the reader has to 24/46 Doc 11605 Rev 5 SRI4K Anticollision generate a new sequence in order to identify all unidentified SRI4K devices in the field.

On receiving the Initiate() command, all SRI4K devices in Ready state switch to Inventory state, set a new 8-bit Chip_ID random value, and return their Chip_ID value. This command is useful when only one SRI4K in Ready state is present in the reader field range. It speeds up the Chip_ID search process. The Chip_slot_number is not used during Initiate() command access. Figure 23.

On receiving the Pcall16() command, the SRI4K first generates a new random Chip_slot_number value (in the 4 least significant bits of the Chip_ID). Chip_slot_number can take on a value between 0 an 15 (1111b). The value is retained until a new Pcall16() or Initiate() command is issued, or until the SRI4K is powered off. The new Chip_slot_number value is then compared with the value 0000b. If they match, the SRI4K returns its Chip_ID value. If not, the SRI4K does not send any response. The Pcall16() command, used together with the Slot_marker() command, allows the reader to search for all the Chip_IDs when there are more than one SRI4K device in Inventory state present in the reader field range.

The Slot_marker byte code is divided into two parts: ● b3 to b0: 4-bit command code with fixed value 6. ● b7 to b4: 4 bits known as the Slot_number (SN). They assume a value between 1 and 15. The value 0 is reserved by the Pcall16() command. On receiving the Slot_marker() command, the SRI4K compares its Chip_slot_number value with the Slot_number value given in the command code. If they match, the SRI4K returns its Chip_ID value. If not, the SRI4K does not send any response. The Slot_marker() command, used together with the Pcall16() command, allows the reader to search for all the Chip_IDs when there are more than one SRI4K device in Inventory state present in the reader field range.

Until this command is issued, the SRI4K will not accept any other command, except for Initiate(), Pcall16() and Slot_marker(). The Select() command returns the 8 bits of the Chip_ID value. An SRI4K in Selected state, that receives a Select() command with a Chip_ID that does not match its own is automatically switched to Deselected state. Figure 32.

The SRI4K is then locked in this state until a complete reset (tag out of the field range). A new SRI4K can thus be accessed through a Select() command without having to remove the previous one from the field. The Completion() command does not generate a response. All SRI4K devices not in Selected state ignore the Completion() command. Figure 35.

The concerned SRI4K devices are thus resubmitted to the anticollision sequence. This command is useful when two SRI4K devices with the same 8-bit Chip_ID happen to be in Selected state at the same time. Forcing them to go through the anticollision sequence again allows the reader to generates new Pcall16() commands and so, to set new random Chip_IDs. The Reset_to_inventory() command does not generate a response. All SRI4K devices that are not in Selected state ignore the Reset_to_inventory() command. Figure 38.

The address byte gives access to the 128 blocks of the SRI4K (addresses 0 to 127). Read_block commands issued with a block address above 127 will not be interpreted and the SRI4K will not return any response, except for the System area located at address 255.

Data bytes are transmitted with the least significant byte first, and each byte is transmitted with the least significant bit first. The address byte gives access to the 128 blocks of the SRI4K (addresses 0 to 127). Write_block commands issued with a block address above 127 will not be interpreted and the SRI4K will not return any response, except for the System area located at address 255.
