Card Memory
Map Information
C.1 Manufacture Block
This is the first data block (block 0) of the first sector (sector 0). It contains the
IC manufacturer data. Because of security and system requirements, this block
is write-protected after having been programmed by the IC manufacturer at
production.
When the Rosslare Mifare
®
reader operation mode is configured to "card serial
number", the Unique ID of the card is read from manufacture block.
C.2 Data Blocks
All sectors contain 3 blocks of 16 bytes for storing data (Sector 0 contains only
two data blocks and the read-only manufacturer block).
The data blocks can be configured by the access bits as:
Read/write blocks (for example, contactless access control)
Value blocks (for example, electronic purse applications – not supported
by AS-B01).
An authentication command must be carried out before any memory
operation to allow further commands. Authentication commands are based on
KeyA, KeyB, and on Access Condition bits. AS-B01 supports programming only
KeyA, thus both Access Bits and KeyB modifications are not supported; their
location in the following diagram is indicated in black.
