1. Introduction
1.1
Description
The CryptoRF® family integrates a 13.56 Mhz RF interface with CryptoMemory® security features. This product line is ideal for RF tags and contactless smart cards that can benefit from
advanced security and cryptographic features. The device is optimized as a contactless secure
memory for secure data storage without the requirement of an internal microprocessor.
For communications the RF interface utilizes the ISO/IEC 14443–2 and –3 Type B bit timing and
signal modulation schemes, and the ISO/IEC 14443-3 Slot-MARKER Anticollision Protocol.
Data is exchanged half duplex at a 106k bit per second rate, with a two byte CRC_B providing
error detection capability. The RF interface powers the other circuits, no battery is required. Full
compliance with the ISO/IEC 14443 –2 and –3 standards results in anticollision interoperability
with the AT88RF020 2 Kbit RFID EEPROM product and provides both a proven RF communication interface, and a robust anticollision protocol.
The seven products in this family contain 1 Kbits to 64 Kbits of User Memory plus 2 Kbits of Configuration Memory. The 2 Kbits of Configuration Memory contains read/write password sets,
four crypto key sets, security access registers for each user zone, and password/key registers
for each zone.
The CryptoRF command set is optimized for a multicard RF communications environment. A
programmable AFI register allows this IC to be used in numerous applications in the same geographic area with seamless discrimination of cards assigned to a particular application during
the anticollision process.

1.5
Conventions
ISO/IEC 14443 nomenclature is used in this specification where applicable. The following
abbreviations are utilized throughout this document. Additional terms are defined in Annex A.
• PCD: Proximity Coupling Device – is the reader/writer and antenna.
• PICC: Proximity Integrated Circuit Card – is the tag/card containing the IC and antenna.
• RFU: Reserved for Future Use – is any feature, memory location, or bit that is held as
reserved for future use by the ISO standards committee or by Atmel.
• $xx: Hexadecimal Number – denotes a hex number “xx” (Most Significant Bit on left).
• xxxxb: Binary Number – denotes a binary number “xxxx” (Most Significant Bit on left).
Each command / response exchange between the PCD and PICC is formatted as shown in Figure 1-2. The bytes are shown in the order in which they are transmitted, with PCD transmissions
in the left column, and PICC transmissions in the right column.
Each byte contains one or more fields as indicated by lines drawn vertically within the byte. The
field in the left half of the byte is the upper nibble of the byte, and the field to the right is the lower
nibble of the byte. In Figure 1-2, five fields contain values ($1D, $00, $F, $51, $0), four fields
contain field names (“Addr”, “XX”, “CID”, “Data”), and four fields contain error detection codes
(CRC1, CRC2).

Operation
The “Request B” (REQB) and “Wake-Up B” (WUPB) commands are used to probe the RF field
for Type B PICCs as the first step in the anticollision process. The response to an REQB or
WUPB command is the “Answer to Request B” (ATQB). PICCs in the Active State are not permitted to answer this command.
4.2.2
Command Field Descriptions
AFI: The Application Family Identifier (AFI) is used to select the family and sub-family of cards
which the PCD is targeting. Only PICCs with a matching AFI code are permitted to answer an
REQB or WUPB command. Table 4-3 describes the AFI matching criteria. An AFI of $00 activates all Type B PICCs.

Operation
Slot MARKER is an optional command used to perform ISO/IEC 14443-3 Type B anticollision
using the timeslot approach. Immediately after an REQB or WUPB command with “N” greater
than 1 is issued, and the ATQB response (if any) is received, the PCD will transmit Slot
MARKER commands with slot values “S” of 2 to “N” to define the start of each timeslot for anticollision. If the random number “R” selected by the PICC matches “S” then the PICC responds
with ATQB. PICCs in the Active State are not permitted to answer this command.
4.3.2
Command Field Descriptions
S: The slot number “S” is encoded within the command byte as shown in Table 4-7.

PUPI: PseudoUnique PICC Identifier. This is the card ID used for anticollision, stored in the
System Zone.
Param: ISO/IEC 14443 communication capabilities reported to the PICC. The contents of
Param Bytes 1, 2, and 3 are not used by the CryptoRF family.
TBmax: A parameter sent by the PCD reporting the receive buffer size of the PCD. Default
value is $0.
CID: The Card ID Number (CID) in ATTRIB Param Byte 4 and in the ATTRIB Response is
encoded as shown in Table 4-8. Each PICC is assigned a unique CID when it is placed in the
Active State. CryptoRF Active State commands use the assigned CID to direct the commands
to the desired PICC.

Response Format
The response to each Active State command consists of five bytes or more. The first byte of the
response is the command byte echoed back to the PCD. The second byte is the ACK/NACK
byte which reports success or failure of the command execution. The final two bytes of the
response are always the CRC bytes. The CRC bytes are preceded by a STATUS byte which
reports error codes or PICC status codes. Any data bytes returned by the command are located
between the ACK/NACK and STATUS bytes.

Operation
Before reading and writing data to the user memory, the host must select a User Zone with this
command. Only one User Zone may be selected at a time. At the time the zone is selected the
host also chooses whether anti-tearing should be active for this zone. If anti-tearing is activated, then all writes to the User Zone will utilize anti-tearing until a new Set User Zone
command is received. Only PICCs in the Active State are permitted to answer this command.
4.7.2
Command Field Descriptions
CID: The Card ID assigned by the ATTRIB command.
PARAM: Selects the User Zone and sets anti-tearing on or off. When the anti-tearing bit (bit 7)
is set to 1b then anti-tearing is enabled, when set to 0b normal writes are selected.

Operation
The Write User Zone command writes data in the device's currently selected User Zone. As
each byte is clocked in to the memory the lower bits of the address are internally incremented.
The upper address bits are not incremented, so the page address remains constant.
Write operations cannot cross page boundaries; a Write User Zone command can only write
data bytes within a single physical memory page. Attempts to write beyond the end of the page
boundary will wrap to the beginning of the same page. Only PICCs in the Active State are permitted to answer this command.

4.13.1
Operation
The Read System Zone command reads from the devices configuration memory. The data byte
address is internally incremented as each byte is read from the memory. If the data byte
address increments into a segment where read access is forbidden, the “fuse byte” is transmitted in place of the forbidden data.
Depending on the value of the PARAM byte, the host may read the data in the configuration
memory, the fuses, or a checksum. Only PICCs in the Active State are permitted to answer this
command.

ADDR: The starting address of the data to read.
L: The number of bytes to read minus 1. L cannot exceed 240 bytes.
Reading more than 64 bytes in a single operation is not recommended. In a typical application
environment, optimal transaction time is achieved by reading no more than 32 bytes in a single
operation.
CRC: Communication error detection bytes.
4.13.3
Response Field Descriptions
CID: The PICC transmits it’s assigned card ID in the response.
DATA: The data bytes read from the configuration memory.
Since access rights vary throughout the system zone, the host may provide an authorized starting address, but a length that causes the device to reach forbidden data. In this case, the device
will transmit the authorized bytes, but unauthorized bytes will be replaced by the "fuse byte". An
“Access Denied" status code $BA or $BC will be returned to indicate that some of the bytes
returned were replaced by the “fuse byte”.

To read or write data in User Zones that require a password for access the host must carry out a
password validation operation. The host uses the Check Password command to send the password for validation against the password selected with the Password Index byte. Only PICCs in
the Active State are permitted to answer this command.
If the Check Password is successful, the Password Attempts Counter (PAC) is cleared and the
ACK response is issued. Only one password is active at any time. If the Check Password fails,
the PAC is incremented and a NACK response is issued. The Check Password success or failure is memorized and active until the PICC is powered down, removed from the Active state, or
until a new Check Password is received. If the password trials limit is reached, subsequent
Check Password commands will be rejected.

In a typical CryptoRF transaction the host performs anticollision, selects a User Zone, and reads
or writes the user memory. When a User Zone requires a password, authentication, or encryption the host performs the required security operation before accessing the User Zone. Note
that the Set User Zone command may be sent before or after the security operation.

6. Absolute Maximum Ratings*
* NOTICE: Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at
these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods
may affect device reliability.
Absolute Maximum Rating
Operating Temperature (junction)
-40°C to +85°C
Storage Temperature (ambient)
-65°C to +150°C
HBM ESD (Antenna Pins only)
2000V minimum
The maximum temperature ratings in this section are applicable to CryptoRF in wafer form.
When assembled into a package the CryptoRF temperature ratings may be reduced to reflect
the limitations of the package. However the CryptoRF absolute maximum ratings should not be
exceeded for any package.

CryptoRF is fabricated with Atmel’s high reliability CMOS EEPROM manufacturing technology.
The write endurance and data retention EEPROM reliability ratings apply to each byte of the
user and configuration memory.
The optional CryptoRF anti-tearing functions use a single anti-tearing EEPROM buffer memory.
Every anti-tearing write operation utilizes the same buffer. The anti-tearing write endurance
specification is a limitation in the total number of anti-tearing write operations that can be performed by each die.

Annex D: Configuration Memory Maps
The Configuration Memory contains all of the system information used to configure the User
Zones, plus 27 bytes of OTP memory that the customer can use to store data of any kind. The
data in the Configuration Memory is locked by programming fuses during the personalization
process so that the PICC configuration cannot be changed by the end user.

Access rights to the Configuration Memory are fixed in logic and are controlled by the security
fuses. See Annex F for access control and fuse information. The Read System Zone and Write
System Zone commands are used to access the Configuration Memory.
The contents of the Configuration Memory registers affect the functionality of CryptoRF and
should be changed from their default configuration only after careful consideration. Incorrect or
invalid settings can disable the device or prevent it from communicating with the PCD.
Configuration Memory registers marked as “Reserved” or RFU must not be changed and cannot
be used for customer data. Only 27 bytes of OTP memory are available for general customer
use, all other registers have assigned functionality. The 27 bytes of OTP memory available for
customer use are described in Annex E: on page 69.

Annex E: Device Personalization
CryptoRF is delivered with the user memory filled with $FF data and with all security features
disabled. Before issuing a CryptoRF PICC to the end user, it is personalized with initial data and
the security settings. The last step in the personalization process is to program the security
fuses.

E.1
User Memory Initialization
The user memory is initialized by using the Set User Zone command to select a User Zone, and
writing the initial data with Write User Zone commands. The data is then verified with Read User
Zone commands. Each User Zone is programmed in this manner.
E.2
Polling Response and OTP Memory Personalization
After initializing the user memory, the Configuration Memory is programmed with the polling
response and OTP data. Figure E-2 shows the polling response registers in blue, OTP memory
in green, and access control registers in gray. The Lot History Code register is factory programmed and cannot be changed.
There are 27 bytes of OTP memory available for customer use; these registers are shown in
green in Figure E-2 and are described below. See Annex J for detailed information on configuration of the polling response registers. See Annex G for detailed information on configuration of
the access control registers.

Memory Test Zone (MTZ)
The MTZ is a 2 byte register with open read/write access for testing basic functionality of the
PICC. Data written in the MTZ cannot be protected from being rewritten; this field should not be
used for application data.
Card Manufacturer Code (CMC)
This 32-bit register, defined by the customer during personalization, is often used to store card
manufacturer lot codes. This OTP register may contain any value; it is an information field that
does not affect functionality.
Lot History Code
This 64-bit register is defined by Atmel. This code contains manufacturing traceability data and
cannot be modified.

Security Fuse Programming
Three security fuses are programmed at the end of the personalization process to lock the PICC
configuration. The Write Fuse Byte option of the Write System Zone command is used to program the fuses. A fourth fuse, SEC, is already programmed by Atmel before CryptoRF leaves
the factory. The fuses can only be programmed in the specified order.
The security fuse programming sequence is as follows:
1. Send Write System Zone command with: PARAM = $01, ADDR = $06, L = $00, DATA =
$00 to program the FAB fuse.
2. Send Write System Zone command with: PARAM = $01, ADDR = $04, L = $00, DATA =
$00 to program the CMA fuse.
3. Send Write System Zone command with: PARAM = $01, ADDR = $00, L = $00, DATA =
$00 to program the PER fuse.
The response to each Write System Zone command should be ACK, and the fuse byte contents
will be returned in the STATUS byte. After all three fuses are programmed, the device configuration is locked and personalization is complete.
71
5276A–RFID–07/08
Annex F: Security Fuses
There are four fuses which control access to the Configuration Memory. One fuse (SEC) is programmed by Atmel before CryptoRF leaves the factory; the remaining three fuses are
programmed during the personalization process. Once a fuse is programmed, it can never be
changed.
These fuses do not control access to the user memory; user memory access rights are defined
in the Access Registers. The security fuses are used to lock the state of the Access Registers,
passwords, and other configuration data during the personalization process so that they cannot
be changed after a card is issued.
F.1
Reading the Security Fuses
To read the fuses send the Read System Zone command with PARAM = $01, ADDR = $FF, L =
$00. The CryptoRF response will contain one data byte, the fuse byte. A value of 0b indicates
the fuse has been programmed. Bits 4 to 7 of this byte are not used as security fuses and are
reserved by Atmel.

Programming the Fuse Bits
Three security fuses are programmed at the end of the personalization process to lock the PICC
configuration. The Write Fuse Byte option of the Write System Zone command is used to program the fuses. A fourth fuse, SEC, is already programmed by Atmel before CryptoRF leaves
the factory. The fuses can only be programmed in the specified order.
The security fuse programming sequence is as follows:
4. Send Write System Zone command with: PARAM = $01, ADDR = $06, L = $00, DATA =
$00 to program the FAB fuse.
5. Send Write System Zone command with: PARAM = $01, ADDR = $04, L = $00, DATA =
$00 to program the CMA fuse.
6. Send Write System Zone command with: PARAM = $01, ADDR = $00, L = $00, DATA =
$00 to program the PER fuse.
The response to each Write System Zone command should be ACK, and the fuse byte contents
will be returned in the STATUS byte. After all three fuses are programmed, the device configuration is locked.
F.3
Configuration Memory Access Control
Table F-1 shows the Configuration Memory access conditions for each of the security fuse settings. The left column contains the name of the register area in the Configuration Memory map.
The next column indicates if that row applies to Read System Zone commands or Write System
Zone commands. The four columns to the right show the security fuse names.
The default state of the fuses when CryptoRF leaves the factory is SEC = 0b and the remaining
three fuses set to 1b. The SEC fuse column in Table F-1 shows the access conditions for this
fuse state. The FAB fuse column shows the access conditions for FAB = 0b. The CMA fuse col-

The register access conditions in Table F-1 are color coded. Open access is indicated by green.
No access permitted is indicated by magenta. If access is restricted, then the field is yellow.
For registers with restricted access, the requirement to gain access is indicated by the text. The
text “Transport PW” indicates that if the Transport Password is validated using the Check Password command, then access is granted. The text “Write PW” indicates that if the Write
Password of a password set is validated using the Check Password command, then access is
granted to the PAC registers and password registers for that password set only.

Annex G: Configuration of Password and Access Control Registers
There are two types of configuration registers in CryptoRF, User Zone access control registers,
and device configuration registers. The User Zone access control registers set the access
requirements for a single User Zone. The Device Configuration Register (DCR) selects optional
behaviors for the PICC. Both types of registers are described in this annex.
G.1
User Zone Configuration Options
Access to each User Zone in the CryptoRF user memory is controlled by two registers in the
Configuration Memory. The Access Register controls the access conditions for the User Zone.
The Password Register controls the password set assigned to the User Zone. The default setting for these registers sets the security requirement to open access, no security features active,
for all User Zones.
Each set of User Zone access control registers has a name matched to the User Zone name.
For example, User Zone 1 is controlled by AR1 and PR1, User Zone 2 is controlled by AR2 and
PR2. User Zone i is controlled by ARi and PRi.
G.1.1
Access Registers (AR)
There is one Access Register for each User Zone in the user memory. The default state of this
register is $FF, which disables all of the optional security features.

immediately.
PM: Password Mode selection bits.
The PM0 and PM1 bits control the password requirements for the User Zone as shown in Table
G-1 below. By default, no password is required for access to the User Zone. If PM = 10b, then
write password verification is required for write access; read access does not require any password. If PM = 01b or 00b, then write password verification is required for read/write access and
read password verification is required for read-only access. The password set assigned to the
zone is specified in the Password Register.

WLM: Write Lock Mode control.
By default the Write Lock Mode is disabled. If WLM = 0b then Write lock Mode is enabled and
the user zone is effectively divided into 8 byte pages with the first byte of each page controlling
write access to all 8 bytes. Figure G-2 shows an example of WLM on two contiguous pages.

The first byte of each virtual 8 byte page is called the Write Lock Byte. Each bit of the Write
Lock Byte controls the locked status of one byte in the page. Write access is forbidden to a byte
if its associated lock bit is set to 0b. Bit 7 controls byte 7, bit 6 controls byte 6, etc. Note that
when WLM is enabled, Write User Zone commands are restricted to a length of one byte.
MDF: Modify Forbidden mode control.
By default the Modify Forbidden mode is disabled. If MDF = 0b then Modify Forbidden mode is
enabled and no write access is allowed to the User Zone. The User Zone effectively becomes
Read Only Memory (ROM).
PGO: Program Only mode control.
By default the Program Only mode is disabled. If PGO = 0b then data within the User Zone may
be changed from 1b to 0b, but never from 0b to 1b. Note that when PGO is enabled, Write User
Zone commands are restricted to a length of one byte.
G.1.2
Password/Key Registers (PR)
There is one Password/Key Register for each User Zone in the user memory. The default state
of this register is $FF.

Device Configuration Options
There are a few configuration options which affect the overall behavior of the CryptoRF PICC.
These options are contained in the Device Configuration Register (DCR).

SME: Supervisor Mode Enable control.
By default the Supervisor Mode is disabled. If SME = 0b then Supervisor Mode is enabled and
Password Write 7 becomes the Supervisor Password. Successful verification of the Supervisor
Password grants read and write access to all passwords and Password Attempt Counters
(PACs), allowing the passwords to be changed and PACs to be reset.
ETA: Extended Trials Allowed control.
By default the Extended Trials Allowed option is disabled. If this option is enabled by setting
ETA = 0b then the maximum number of password trials is increased to permit a maximum of
eight password verification attempts before a password is locked. If ETA is disabled then only
four password attempts are permitted.
EGTL: Extra Guard Time Length control.
By default the Extra Guard Time Length option is disabled, which maximizes RF communication
speed. This option controls the Extra Guard Time (EGT) for all data transmitted by the PICC.
The default setting of EGTL = 0b selects zero ETUs of EGT. Setting EGTL = 1b selects two
ETUs of EGT for all transmissions. The EGTL option does not affect EGT requirements for data
transmitted by the reader. See annex L for information about EGT.
77
5276A–RFID–07/08
Annex H: Using Password Security
CryptoRF contains security options that can be enabled by the customer at personalization. By
default no security is enabled, allowing CryptoRF to operate as a simple RFID EEPROM memory. Enabling password security on a User Zone restricts access to the data to users with
knowledge of the password.
H.1
Communication Security
Communication between the PICC and reader operates in three security modes. The Normal
mode allows communication of all types of data in the clear. Authentication mode encrypts only
passwords. Encryption mode encrypts both user data and passwords. The default communication mode is Normal mode.

H.2
Transport Password
The Transport Password protects the Configuration Memory contents on all CryptoRF devices
from accidental changes. All CryptoRF devices are shipped from Atmel with a Transport Password stored in password register Write 7. No changes to the Configuration Memory are
permitted unless the Transport Password has been verified using the Check Password command.

The Password and PAC Registers
Each password set, along with it’s associated Password Attempt Counters is stored in an 8 byte
segment in the Password section of the Configuration Memory. Figure H-1 illustrates password
set “z” in the Configuration Memory map. The Write Password and Write Password PAC are
stored in the lower four bytes, while the Read Password and Read Password PAC are stored in
the upper four bytes.

The Password Attempt Counters contain a value which indicates how many unsuccessful password verification attempts have been made using the Password Index of the corresponding
password. Table H-3 and Table H-4 show coding of the PAC register. DCR register bit ETA
selects the number of password attempt that are permitted; the default configuration allows four
attempts, ETA = 0b allows eight attempts. If the PAC reaches the maximum count, then the corresponding password is locked and all subsequent Check Password commands will fail.
H.4
Password Security Options
Password security for a User Zone is enabled by programming the Access Register for the
zone. A Password Set is assigned to the User Zone by programming the Password/Key Register for the zone. Configuration of the registers is described in annex G.

Table H-5 shows the available password security options. The default setting of PM=00b disables password security. The remaining two options enable password security for either writes
only, or for both reads and writes.
If PM = 10b, then the Write Password is required to be verified before a Write User Zone command will be accepted. Data reads are not restricted in this configuration.
If read and write password security is enabled by setting PM = 01b or PM = 00b, then verification
of the Read Password allows access to data with the Read User Zone command; however no
write access is permitted. Verification of the Write Password allows access to the data with
either Read User Zone or Write User Zone commands.
H.5
Password Verification
A password is sent for verification using the Check Password command as shown in figure H-2.
The Password Index identifies the Password Register that the password will be compared
against. If the passwords match, then the PICC will latch the verification status as PASS along
with the Password Index in an internal register, write the PAC to $FF, and return an ACK in the
response.
The internal password security status register maintains it’s contents until the PICC is reset or
some other event causes them to be changed. For example, sending another Check Password
command will update these registers to reflect the success or failure of the new password verification event. Note that only one password is active at any time, and only the status of the most
recent password verification event is stored in the PICC.
If multiple User Zones are assigned the same Password Set, then a single Check Password
command will provide access to all of these User Zones. Note that it does not matter if the Set
User Zone command is sent before or after a Check Password command. The currently
selected User Zone is stored in a register that is independent of the password security status
register.

A Check Password response NACK can be coded two different ways, depending on the reason

failed attempts. This special NACK will contain one of the following values: $11, $21, $31, $41,
$51, $61, $71, $81. The upper nibble of the NACK byte is the number of failed attempts (1 to 8
failures), while the lower nibble is the NACK code $1.
H.6
Changing Passwords
To change a password after the personalization procedure is complete and the card configuration has been locked by programming the security fuses, it is necessary to successfully verify the
Write Password of a password set using the Check Password command. The Read Password
and Write Password registers and PACs can then be written using a Write System Zone command, and verified using the Read System Zone command.
81
5276A–RFID–07/08
If the PAC for the Write Password has reached the attempt count limit, then the Write Password
will be locked and it is not possible to change the passwords or PACs in this set. However if the
optional Supervisor Mode has been enabled, then the Supervisor Password can be used to
enable write access to the passwords unless the Supervisor Password is also locked.
H.7
Supervisor Password
Supervisor Mode is an optional feature that can be enabled by programming SME = 0b in the
DCR register. In Supervisor Mode a Supervisor Password is enabled that grants read and write
access to all of the password sets and PACs. Password Write 7 is the Supervisor Password if
SME = 0b.
If the Supervisor Password is successfully verified, then it is possible to write any of the passwords and PACs. This allows passwords to be easily changed in the field, and for PACs to be
reset to $FF (no unsuccessful attempts) by writing the registers using the Write System Zone
command.
When a PICC is configured with SME = 0b, it is recommended that Password Set 7 be reserved
for the Supervisor Password. User Zones using password security should be configured to use
other password sets. If a PICC is configured in this manner, then it is unlikely that the PAC for
Password Write 7 will accidentally become locked (due to too many unsuccessful attempts). If
the PAC for Password Write 7 is locked, then all subsequent attempts to verify the Supervisor
Password will fail.
Supervisor Mode changes the Configuration Memory access requirements for the Password
section of the memory only. Enabling Supervisor Mode does not change the access requirements for any other configuration registers.

Annex I: Understanding Anti-Tearing
Anti-tearing is an optional feature that protects a write operation from being corrupted due to
PICC power loss during the write operation. This feature can be enabled as needed by the PCD
during a transaction, it is not controlled by a configuration register.
I.1
Tearing Explained
A tearing attack on a Smartcard transaction involves quickly removing a card from the reader
before a transaction has been completed. The object of a tearing attack is to remove the card
from the reader after the Host application has granted access to a product, but before the cost of
the product has been deducted from the value stored on the card.
Both contact and contactless Smartcard transactions may be attacked in this manner. A tearing
attack often results in corruption of a portion of the data stored in the Smartcard.
Tearing attacks can be prevented from succeeding by careful application software development;
if access to a product is not granted until after a Smartcard value debit has occurred, then the
attacker cannot achieve his objective. However data corruption can occur if any Smartcard
transaction is interrupted due to power loss.
I.2
CryptoRF Anti-Tearing
CryptoRF is designed with an anti-tearing feature that prevents data corruption in the event a
memory write operation is interrupted. Activating the anti-tearing feature impacts both the transaction time and the memory write endurance of the PICC, so if should be activated only for
critical data write operations.
Figure I-1 illustrates how a CryptoRF PICC performs an anti-tearing write. A CryptoRF anti-tearing write is a four step process. The data is written to a buffer EEPROM memory before being
written to the final EEPROM memory location. The EEPROM Anti-Tearing Flag indicates if an
anti-tearing write is in progress, or is completed.
The Anti-Tearing Flag is checked each time the PICC is powered up. If the flag indicates a write
was in progress, then the anti-tearing write will be completed before the PICC is allowed to
accept any commands.
The memory address and data are written to a buffer EEPROM in step 1, followed by writing the
Anti-Tearing Flag in Step 2. In step 3 the data in the buffer EEPROM is written to the address
sent with the write command (the final EEPROM memory location). The Anti-Tearing flag is
cleared in step 4, and the ACK response is returned to the PCD.
If power is interrupted before step 2 is completed, then the write operation fails; the EEPROM
contents are unchanged, and the Anti-Tearing Flag is not set to indicate an anti-tearing write is
in progress. If power is interrupted after step 2 is complete, then the Anti-Tearing flag is set;
when the PICC is next powered up, the anti-tearing write will be completed as part of the POR
process. If power is interrupted during step 3 or 4, the Anti-Tearing Flag will be set and the write
will be completed on the next POR.

Table I-1 shows the consequences of a tearing attack occurring at each step during an anti-tearing write. The EEPROM contents at the address being written will either remain unchanged, or
will be written with the new data. The EEPROM is not corrupted by power interruption during an
anti-tearing write operation.

Performance Impact of Anti-Tearing
Anti-tearing impacts the CryptoRF write transaction time in two ways. First, the maximum length
of a write command is limited to 8 bytes when anti-tearing is active. Second, the response time
of a write command is increased by approximately four times due to additional EEPROM memory writes which occur when anti-tearing is active.
If anti-tearing is used to write 8 bytes of data, the net result is an increase in the transaction time
of only 5 milliseconds. When large amounts of data are written, the increase in transaction time
is significant. Writing the entire 128 byte User Zone on AT88SC0404CRF takes 147 milliseconds with anti-tearing, but only 41 milliseconds without anti-tearing. Writing the entire 256 byte
User Zone on AT88SC3216CRF takes 292 milliseconds with anti-tearing, but only 54 milliseconds without anti-tearing.

Each byte of the CryptoRF EEPROM user memory and configuration memory is rated for 100k

out any of the EEPROM memory bits.

All anti-tearing write commands sent to a PICC are processed in a single buffer EEPROM memory before being written to the final EEPROM memory location. As a result, the write endurance
for anti-tearing writes is a per-unit specification, not a per-byte specification. A minimum of
50,000 anti-tearing write commands can be processed without wearing out any of the buffer
EEPROM bits, or the EEPROM Anti-Tearing Flag bits.
I.5
Activating Anti-Tearing
Anti-Tearing can be used for either User Zone or Configuration Memory writes. Activation of this
optional feature is described in this section.
The Set User Zone command is used to activate the anti-tearing feature when writing the user
memory. To turn anti-tearing on, send a Set User Zone command with bit 7 in the PARAM byte
set to 1b. Any Write User Zone command that is received following anti-tearing activation will
automatically use the anti-tearing write process. To turn anti-tearing off, send a Set User Zone
command with bit 7 in the PARAM byte set to 0b. All subsequent Write User Zone commands
will automatically use the normal write process.

When writing the Configuration Memory the anti-tearing function is controlled by the PARAM

Annex J: Personalization of the Anticollision Registers
There are several registers that define the polling response of CryptoRF, which are written during the personalization process. The ISO/IEC 14443 Part 3 requirements must be considered
when programming these registers. Incorrect personalization of these registers may cause
readers to reject cards or to become confused and unable to complete the transaction. This
annex describes the requirements for programming the polling registers for operation with
ISO/IEC 14443 compliant readers and systems.
J.1
Anticollision Procedure
The RF reader (PCD) searches for Type B cards by issuing REQB or WUPB polling commands.
These commands contain an AFI (Application Family Identifier) code to poll for only cards with a
matching AFI code. Applications supporting multiple cards may also poll using the Slot
MARKER command. See Annex K for a detailed description of the anticollision procedures.
The answer to any of these polling commands is called the ATQB response. This response contains a card serial number (PUPI), which is used to select a specific card during the anticollision
process, along with three protocol bytes. The protocol bytes tell the PCD what communication
capabilities and options the card supports, and are used by the reader to configure itself for optimum communications with the card.
J.2
Anticollision Registers
The ATQB response of CryptoRF contains several values that are located in registers in the anticollision section of the System Zone (see Figure J-1). The values stored in the following
registers are used during anticollision: PUPI, APP, RBmax, AFI.

The definitions of the polling configuration registers in the System Zone are listed below along
with any restrictions which ISO/IEC 14443 Part 3 places on the register values.
Pseudo Unique PICC Identifier (PUPI)
PUPI is a 32 bit serial number defined by the customer during personalization; the PUPI is usually unique. This code is transmitted as part of the ATQB response during anticollision. PUPI
may be set to any value.
Application Data (APP)
APP is an additional 32 bits of information transmitted as part of the ATQB response. This field
is defined by the customer during personalization. The fourth byte is programmed by Atmel at
the factory with a memory density code (see Figure J-1); this byte can be redefined by the card
manufacturer if desired. APP may be set to any value.

Receive Buffer Max Code (RBmax)
This 8-bit register is transmitted as Protocol 2 byte of the ATQB response. This register is programmed by Atmel with the receive buffer maximum frame size code. This field can be
reprogrammed by the customer during personalization if desired. The value of this protocol byte
is restricted by ISO/IEC 14443 Part 3 to the values $00, $10, $20, $30, $40, $50, $60, $70, or
$80 only. Use of an unapproved value in this register is likely to cause PCDs to malfunction.
The Protocol 2 byte of the ATQB response is defined in ISO/IEC 14443 Part 3, section 7.9 . This
byte contains the Part 4 compliance code in the lower 4 bits and the code for the maximum
frame size supported by the card in the upper 4 bits. CryptoRF must return a value of $0 in the
Part 4 compliance bits to indicate the PICC does not support the optional ISO/IEC 14443 Part 4
Active State protocol. The coding of the card maximum frame size bits is shown in Figure J-2.

reject invalid ATQB responses and will not send invalid ATTRIB commands.

Application Family Identifier (AFI)
This 8 bit register identifies the application family and subfamily. This field is defined by the card
manufacturer and is used during the anticollision process to determine which cards will respond
to an REQB or WUPB polling command. This value is expected to be a single fixed value for all
cards used in a particular system.
The upper 4 bits are the application family and the lower 4 bits are the sub-family. The ISO/IEC
14443 Part 3 Type B application family definitions are shown in Figure J-6. The AFI register will
accept any code, however only family codes of $0 to $F and subfamily codes of $1 to $F should
be used. AFI Register values of $00, $10, $20, $30, $40, $50, $60, $70, $80, $90, $A0, $B0,
$C0, $D0, $E0, and $F0 are prohibited and may cause PCDs to malfunction. Values defined as
RFU are reserved for future definition by ISO and may not be supported by all readers. A card
using an RFU value for the AFI is not compliant with ISO/IEC 14443 Part 3.

Summary
The CryptoRF anticollision registers provide customers with the capability to customize the
response of a CryptoRF PICC to the polling commands. This polling response is used by the
PCD to perform anticollision and to determine the communication capabilities of the PICC. Intelligent RF readers will reconfigure themselves based on the contents of the protocol bytes in
ATQB and may malfunction if invalid values are returned by the card. For this reason, the values of the CryptoRF anticollision registers must be carefully selected using the guidelines in this
annex.
91
5276A–RFID–07/08
Annex K: Understanding Anticollision
This section of the specification and the flow chart in Figure K-1 describe the Anticollision procedure for the CryptoRF family. The command and response definitions are detailed in the
“Anticollision Command Definitions” section of this specification. For additional information on
the anticollision command coding see section 7 of ISO/IEC 14443 Part 3 or Atmel Application
note Understanding the Requirements of ISO/IEC 14443 for Type B Proximity Contactless Identification Cards.
When the PICC enters the 13.56 Mhz RF field of the host reader (PCD) it performs a power on
reset (POR) function and waits silently for a valid Type B polling command. The CryptoRF
PICC processes the anti-tearing registers as part of the POR process.
The PCD initiates the anticollision process by issuing an REQB or WUPB command. The
WUPB command activates any card (PICC) in the field with a matching AFI code. The REQB
command performs the same function, but does not affect a PICC in the Halt State. The REQB
and WUPB commands contain an integer “N” indicating the number of Slots assigned to the
anticollision process.
If “N” = 1 then all PICCs (with a matching AFI) respond with the ATQB response. If “N” is greater
than one, then the PICC selects a random number “R” in the range of 1 to “N” ; if “R” = 1 then the
PICC responds with ATQB. If “R” is greater than 1, then the PICC waits for a Slot MARKER
command where the slot number “S” is equal to “R”, then it responds with ATQB. The PCD polls
all of the slots to determine if any PICC is present in the field.
The ATQB response contains a PUPI card serial number which is used to direct commands to a
specific PICC during the anticollision process. When the PCD receives an ATQB response, it
can respond with a matching HLTB command to Halt the PICC, or it can respond with a matching ATTRIB command to assign a Card ID Number (CID) and place the PICC in the Active State.
Once placed in the Active State the PICC is ready for transactions using the CryptoRF Active
State commands. A PICC in the Active State ignores all commands that do not contain a CID
number which matches the CID assigned by the ATTRIB command. A PICC in the Active State
ignores all REQB, WUPB, Slot MARKER, ATTRIB, and HLTB commands.
When the PCD receives an ATQB response with a CRC error, then a collision is assumed to
have occurred. Typically the PCD will complete transactions with any other PICCs in the field,
and then place them in the Halt State using a DESELECT command. The PCD will then issue a
new REQB command, causing each PICC in the field (with a matching AFI) that has not been
Halted to select a new random number “R”. This procedure resolves the conflict between the
previously colliding PICCs, allowing the PCD to communicate with them.
The anticollision process continues in this manner until all PICCs in the field have completed
their transactions. Any command received by the PICC with a CRC error is ignored.
Note that ISO/IEC 14443 Part 3 describes two anticollision options for Type B PICCs; the
Timeslot option has been implemented in the CryptoRF family.

Annex L: The ISO/IEC 14443 Type B RF Signal Interface
L.1
RF Signal Interface
The CryptoRF communications interface is compliant with the ISO/IEC 14443 part 2 and part 3
requirements for Type B. Type B signaling utilizes 10 % amplitude modulation of the RF field for
communication from the reader to the card with NRZ encoded data. Communication from card
to reader utilizes BPSK load modulation of an 847.5 khz subcarrier with NRZ-L encoded data.
The RF field is continuously on for Type B communications.
L.2
Data Format
Data communication between the card and reader is performed using an LSB first data format.
Each byte of data is transmitted with a 0b start bit and a 1b stop bit as shown in Figure L-1. The
stop bit, start bit, and each data bit are each one elementary time unit (ETU) in length (9.4395
microseconds).
Each byte transmission consists of a start bit, 8 data bits (LSB first), and a stop bit. Each byte
may be separated from the next byte by extra guard time (EGT). The EGT may be zero or a
fraction of an ETU. EGT cannot exceed 57 microseconds for data transmitted by the PCD.
EGT for data transmitted by the CryptoRF PICC is programmed to either zero or 2 ETUs using
the EGTL bit of the Device Configuration Register (DCR). The position of each bit is measured
relative to the falling edge of the start bit.

Despite the fact that data transmissions occur LSB first, all of the commands, data, and CRC
bytes in ISO/IEC 14443 and in this specification are listed in the conventional manner, with MSB
on the left and LSB on the right.
L.3
Frame Format
Data transmitted by the PCD or PICC is sent as frames. The frame consists of the start of frame
(SOF), several bytes of information, and the end of frame (EOF). The SOF and EOF requirements are shown in Figure L-2.

Reader Data Transmission
The unmodulated 13.56 Mhz carrier signal amplitude which is transmitted when the reader is
idle is defined as logical “1”, while the modulated signal level is defined as logical “0”. A frame
transmitted by the reader consists of SOF, several bytes of data, a 2 byte CRC_B, and the EOF.

Card Data Transmission
The CryptoRF PICC waits silently for a command from the PCD after being activated by the RF
field. After receiving a valid command from the PCD, the PICC is allowed to turn on the subcarrier only if it intends to transmit a complete response frame. The PICC response consists of
TR1, SOF, several bytes of data followed by a 2 byte CRC_B, and the EOF. The subcarrier is
turned off no later than 2 ETUs after the EOF. Figure L-4 shows the PICC frame format
When the subcarrier is turned on it remains unmodulated for a time period known as the synchronization time (TR1). The phase of the subcarrier during TR1 defines a logical one and
permits the reader demodulator to lock on to the subcarrier signal. The subcarrier remains on
until after the EOF transmission is complete. The TR1 transmitted by CryptoRF is 10 to 11
ETUs in duration for all responses.

Response Timing
After the PICC receives a command from the PCD, it is not permitted to transmit a subcarrier
during the guard time (TR0). The minimum guard time is 8 ETUs for all command responses.
The maximum guard time is defined by the frame waiting time (FWT), except for the ATQB
response (response to REQB or Slot MARKER polling commands) which has a maximum TR0
of 32 ETUs.

Response
The FWT is the maximum time that a PICC requires to begin a response. The PICC transmits a
parameter in the ATQB response to the polling command that tells the reader the worst case
FWT. Typical response times for the CryptoRF are listed in Annex N of this specification. See
Annex M for signal timing specifications.
The PCD is not permitted to modulate the RF field while waiting for a PICC to respond to a command. Modulation of the RF field during a memory read or write operation may corrupt the
operation or cause reset of the PICC.
L.7
CRC Error Detection
A 2 byte CRC_B is required in each frame transmitted by the PICC or PCD to permit transmission error detection. The CRC_B is calculated on all of the command and data bytes in the
frame. For encrypted data the encryption is performed prior to CRC_B calculation. The SOF,
EOF, start bits, stop bits, and EGT are not included in the CRC_B calculation. The two byte
CRC_B follows the data bytes in the frame.
Figure L-6.

EOF
The CRC_B polynomial is defined in ISO/IEC 14443 and ISO/IEC 13239 as x16 + x12 + x5 + x0.
This is a hex polynomial of $1021. The initial value of the register used for the CRC_B calculation is all ones ($FFFF). When receiving information from the reader, the PICC computes the

CRC on the incoming command, data, and CRC bytes. After the last bit has been processed the
CRC register should contain $0000.
In the example illustrated in Figure L-6, the CRC_B is calculated on the “K” bytes of data and
then appended to the data. CRC1 is the least significant byte and CRC2 is the most significant
byte of the CRC_B. If the CRC_B was calculated as $5A6B, then CRC1 is $6B and CRC2 is
$5A.
L.8
Type A Tolerance
The RF Interface is designed for use in multi-protocol applications. It will not latch or lock up if
exposed to Type A signals and will not respond to them. The PICC may reset in the presence of
Type A field modulation, but is not damaged by exposure to Type A signals.
In a typical multi-protocol application the reader will poll for Type B cards and complete all transactions with any Type B cards present in the field. The reader will then poll for Type A cards and
complete all transactions with them. The reader alternates between the two types of modulation
and protocols.

Annex M: RF Specifications and Characteristics
The ISO/IEC 10373-6 Test Methods standard contains the test requirements for characterizing
ISO/IEC 14443 devices. ISO/IEC 10373-6 utilizes PICCs in the ID-1 credit card size format for
all tests. These test methods and the RF signal interface requirements of ISO/IEC 14443 contain PICC and PCD performance requirements that are dependent on the physical size of the
PICC antenna.
The ISO/IEC 14443 set of standards do not differentiate PCD and PICC requirements that are
PICC antenna size dependent from those that are not. In this Annex all of the RF requirements
are summarized, and antenna size related parameters are identified.
M.1
Electrical Characteristics
ISO/IEC 14443 devices, including the CryptoRF family, have their performance specified in
terms of the RF interface of the PICC and/or the PCD (Reader). Both components of the RF
interface must perform within the specified limits for communications to occur. An ISO/IEC
14443 PICC is not expected to operate with PCDs operating outside the specifications.

The magnetic field limits of ISO/IEC 14443 are measured using a calibration coil defined in
ISO/IEC 10373-6 section 6.1. This calibration coil integrates the field strength over the 3000
mm2 area of a typical ID-1 antenna. The Hmin and Hmax limits of 1.5 and 7.5 A/m rms define
the expected operating volume of a PCD with an ID-1 size PICC. The PCD is not allowed to
generate a magnetic field strength exceeding 7.5 A/m rms. An ID-1 PICC is required to survive
exposure to a 10 A/m rms magnetic field without damage; this non-operating specification guarantees a robust PICC RF interface circuit.
The Load Modulation Amplitude is measured over the full operating magnetic field strength
range using an apparatus defined in ISO/IEC 10373-6 section 7.1. This apparatus uses sense
coils to detect the signal generated by a PICC transmitting a message to the PCD. The sense
coils are optimized to detect a signal generated by an ID-1 PICC. The ISO/IEC 14443 Load
Modulation Amplitude requirements apply to this test apparatus only.

Specifications for Other Antenna Sizes
The specifications in Table M-3 cannot be applied directly to PICCs with larger or smaller antennas. The characteristics in Table M-1 and Table M-2 are applicable to a PICC with any antenna
dimensions.
Load Modulation Amplitude measurements on larger or smaller PICCs would require the design
and characterization of a new test apparatus. These measurement results would be dependent
on the apparatus and cannot be extrapolated from the existing ISO/IEC 14443 specifications.
A reasonable estimate of the Operating Magnetic Field range for a PICC can be made for any
PICC antenna size as follows: Determine the area of the PICC antenna by measuring the outside dimensions of the loop antenna. The Magnetic Field strength operating range is inversely
proportional to the PICC antenna area (use 3000 mm2 as the ID-1 antenna area). Note however that PCD magnetic field strength must be evaluated with a calibration coil similar in area to
the PICC antenna, or the measurement result will not be accurate.
Example 1. Guidelines for operation of a 6000 mm2 PICC Antenna. 3000/6000 = 0.5 The minimum Operating Magnetic Field (Hmin) is 1.5 x 0.5 = 0.75 A/m rms. The maximum Operating
Magnetic Field (Hmax) is 7.5 x 0.5 = 3.75 A/m rms. This PICC can be expected to survive exposure to a Non-Operating Magnetic Field of 10 x 0.5 = 5.0 A/m rms.
Example 2. Guidelines for operation of a 1000 mm2 PICC Antenna. 3000/1000 = 3.0 The minimum Operating Magnetic Field (Hmin) is 1.5 x 3.0 = 4.5 A/m rms. The maximum Operating
Magnetic Field (Hmax) is 7.5 x 3.0 = 22.5 A/m rms. This PICC can be expected to survive exposure to a Non-Operating Magnetic Field of 10 x 3.0 = 30.0 A/m rms.
Warning: Exposure to magnetic field strengths in excess of 30 A/m rms may be hazardous to
your health.
M.5
Modulation Index
The Modulation Index of the PCD generated magnetic field is measured by placing a calibration
coil or wire loop near the PCD antenna. Connect this loop to a high impedance oscilloscope
probe and measure the amplitude modulation (ASK) waveform as shown in figure M-1. The
PCD amplitude Modulation Index is defined in ISO/IEC 14443 part 2 as the M.I. = (A - B) / (A +
B). For Type B operation the PCD modulation index is required to be between 8 % and 14 %.
If the PCD modulation is insufficient then the PICC receiver will not successfully decode the
transmissions. Excessive modulation reduces the power available to the PICC and may cause it
to reset.

What is an ID-1 PICC Antenna ?
ISO/IEC 7810 defines the mechanical requirements for plastic identification cards, including
smartcards. The nominal ID-1 card dimensions are 85.6 mm by 53.98 mm, and 0.76 mm thick.
There are no antenna dimension requirements in ISO/IEC 7810.
Typical antenna dimensions for ID-1 PICCs are described in ISO/IEC 10373-6 section 6.3 as a
“Reference PICC” antenna. The outer dimensions of this reference antenna are 72 mm x 42
mm with four concentric turns. The antenna trace width and spacing are both 0.5 mm with a tolerance of +/- 20 %. This is a test antenna, the number of turns required on a real antenna may
be more or less than four turns.
Additional guidance regarding ID-1 PICC antenna dimensions is provided in amendment 4 to
ISO/IEC 10373-6 in the form of a “Class 1” PICC antenna definition. A “Class 1” PICC has it’s
antenna located entirely within a zone defined by two rectangles centered in the ID-1 dimensions. The external rectangle is 81 mm by 49 mm. The internal rectangle is 64 mm x 34 mm,
with a 3 mm corner radius. All antenna turns must be located between these rectangles.
Any antenna falling within the “Class 1” dimensions is considered an ID-1 antenna for the purpose of this specification.
M.7
Other Characteristics Impacting Performance
The ISO/IEC 14443 standards do not guarantee that any compliant PCD will operate with any
compliant PICC. A reliable RFID system uses PICCs and PCDs matched to the application, with
appropriately sized antennas. Discussion of the numerous factors impacting the performance of
RFID systems is beyond the scope of this document.

Lot History Code Register Contents
The format of the Lot History Code Register at addresses $10 thru $17 of the Configuration
Memory has been changed to contain a Unique Serial Number for each die. The first five bytes
of the register contain the Unique Serial Number, while the other three bytes contain additional
lot history information. Since this is a read-only register, these five bytes can be used by customers to uniquely identify a particular die for anti-collision, authentication key diversification, or
any other purpose required by the application.
