The SRIX4K is a contactless memory, powered by an externally transmitted radio wave. It
contains a 4096-bit user EEPROM. The memory is organized as 128 blocks of 32 bits. The
SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K and the reader is 106 Kbit/s in both reception and emission modes.
The SRIX4K follows the ISO 14443-2 Type B recommendation for the radio-frequency
power and signal interface.
Figure 1.Logic diagram
The SRIX4K is specifically designed for short range applications that need secure and reusable products. The SRIX4K 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. The SRIX4K provides an anticlone function which allows its authentication. Using the STMicroelectronics single chip
coupler, CRX14, it is easy to design a reader with the authentication capability and to build a
system with a high level of security.

The SRIX4K contactless EEPROM can be randomly read and written in block mode (each
block containing 32 bits). The instruction set includes the following ten commands:
●Read_block
●Write_block
●Initiate
●Pcall16
●Slot_marker
●Select
●Completion
●Reset_to_inventory
●Authenticate
●Get_UID
The SRIX4K memory is organized in three areas, as described in Figure 12. 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.

3.1 Input data transfer from the reader to the SRIX4K (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 SRIX4K’s
antenna is transformed into a supply voltage by a regulator, and into data bits by the ASK
demodulator. For the SRIX4K to decode correctly the information it receives, the reader
must 10% amplitude-modulate the 13.56 MHz wave before sending it to the SRIX4K. This is
represented in Figure 3. The data transfer rate is 106 Kbits/s.
Figure 3.10% ASK modulation of the received wave
3.1.1 Character transmission format for request frame
The SRIX4K transmits and receives data bytes as 10-bit characters, with the least
significant bit (b
(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 SRIX4K does not execute the
command, but it does not generate an error frame.

3.2 Output data transfer from the SRIX4K to the reader (answer
frame)
The data bits issued by the SRIX4K use retro-modulation. Retro-modulation is obtained by
modifying the SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K. To improve
load-modulation detection, data is transmitted using a BPSK encoded, 847 kHz subcarrier
frequency ƒ

3.4 CRC
The 16-bit CRC used by the SRIX4K is generated in compliance with the ISO 14443 Type B
recommendation. 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 SRIX4K verifies that the CRC value is valid.
If it is invalid, the SRIX4K discards the frame and does not answer the reader.
Upon reception of an Answer from the SRIX4K, 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.

4.1 Resettable OTP area
In this area contains five individual 32-bit Boolean words (see Figure 13 for a map of the
area). 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. See Figure 14 and Figure 15 for
examples of the result of the Write_block command in the resettable OTP area.
Figure 13. Resettable OTP area (addresses 0 to 4)
Figure 14. Write_block update in Standard mode (binary format)
The five 32-bit blocks making up the resettable OTP area can be erased in one go by adding
an auto-erase cycle to the Write_block command. An auto-erase cycle is added each time
the SRIX4K 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: 32-
bit binary counters for details).

4.2 32-bit binary counters
The two 32-bit binary counters located at block addresses 5 and 6, respectively, are used to
count down from 2
32
(4096 million) to 0. The SRIX4K 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 17 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.

The counter with block address 6 controls the Reload command used to reset the resettable
OTP area (addresses 0 to 4). Bits b
to b21 act as an 11-bit Reload counter; whenever one
31
of these 11 bits is updated, the SRIX4K detects the change and adds an Erase cycle to the
Write_block command for locations 0 to 4 (see Section 4.1: Resettable OTP area). The
Erase cycle remains active until a Power-off or a Select command is issued. The SRIX4K’s
resettable OTP area can be reloaded up to 2,047 times (2

-1).
4.3 EEPROM area
The 121 blocks between addresses 7 and 127 are EEPROM blocks of 32 bits each (484
bytes in total). (See Figure 18 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 Section 4.4.1: OTP_Lock_Reg for
details). Once protected, these blocks (7 to 15) cannot be unprotected.

This area is used to modify the settings of the SRIX4K. It contains 3 registers:

A Write_block command in this area will not erase the previous contents. Selected bits can
thus be set from 1 to 0. All bits previously at 0 remain unchanged. Once all the 32 bits of a

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 SRIX4K is provided with an anticollision feature based on a random 8-bit Chip_ID. Prior
to selecting an SRIX4K, an anticollision sequence has to be run to search for the Chip_ID of
the SRIX4K. 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 SRIX4K
Chip_ID beforehand, so that the SRIX4K can be identified and selected directly without
having to run an anticollision sequence. This is why the SRIX4K was designed with an
optional mask setting used to program a fixed 8-bit Chip_ID to bits b
to b0 of the system
7
area. When the fixed Chip_ID option is used, the random Chip_ID function is disabled.
Doc 8887 Rev 919/48
SRIX4K operationSRIX4K
5 SRIX4K operation
All commands, data and CRC are transmitted to the SRIX4K as 10-bit characters using ASK
modulation. The start bit of the 10 bits, b
SRIX4K at the antenna is demodulated by the 10% ASK demodulator, and decoded by the
internal logic. Prior to any operation, the SRIX4K must have been selected by a Select
command. Each frame transmitted to the SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K (wrong command or CRC error), the memory does not
return any error code.
When a valid frame is received, the SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K sending the 2 CRC bytes and the
EOF.

SRIX4KSRIX4K states
6 SRIX4K states
The SRIX4K can be switched into different states. Depending on the current state of the
SRIX4K, its logic will only answer to specific commands. These states are mainly used
during the anticollision sequence, to identify and to access the SRIX4K in a very short time.
The SRIX4K provides 6 different states, as described in the following paragraphs and in
Figure 20.
6.1 Power-off state
The SRIX4K is in Power-off state when the electromagnetic field around the tag is not strong
enough. In this state, the SRIX4K does not respond to any command.
6.2 Ready state
When the electromagnetic field is strong enough, the SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K.
6.3 Inventory state
The SRIX4K switches from the Ready to the Inventory state after an Initiate() command has
been issued. In Inventory state, the SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K is active and responds to all Read_block(), Write_block(),
Authenticate() and Get_UID() commands. When an SRIX4K has entered the Selected state,
it no longer responds to anticollision commands. So that the reader can access another tag,
the SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K can be in Selected state at a time.
6.5 Deselected state
Once the SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K can only be turned off. All commands are ignored.

b0 to b3: Chip_slot_number
7 Anticollision
The SRIX4K provides an anticollision mechanism that searches for the Chip_ID of each
device that is present in the reader field range. When known, the Chip_ID is used to select
an SRIX4K individually, and access its memory. The anticollision sequence is managed by
the reader through a set of commands described in Section 5: SRIX4K operation:
●Initiate()
●Pcall16()
●Slot_marker().
The reader is the master of the communication with one or more SRIX4K device(s). It
initiates the tag communication activity by issuing an Initiate(), Pcall16() or Slot_marker()
command to prompt the SRIX4K to answer. During the anticollision sequence, it might
happen that two or more SRIX4K devices respond simultaneously, so causing a collision.
The command set allows the reader to handle the sequence, to separate SRIX4K
transmissions into different time slots. Once the anticollision sequence has completed,
SRIX4K communication is fully under the control of the reader, allowing only one SRIX4K to
transmit at a time.
The Anticollision scheme is based on the definition of time slots during which the SRIX4K
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 SRIX4K answers after the command is issued. SRIX4K devices are allowed to
answer only once during the anticollision sequence. Consequently, even if there are several
SRIX4K devices present in the reader field, there will probably be a slot in which only one
SRIX4K answers, allowing the reader to capture its Chip_ID. Using the Chip_ID, the reader
can then establish a communication channel with the identified SRIX4K. The purpose of the
anticollision sequence is to allow the reader to select one SRIX4K at a time.
The SRIX4K 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 b
) of the Chip_ID are also known as the
3
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 21. SRIX4K Chip_ID description
Each time the SRIX4K receives a Pcall16() command, the Chip_slot_number is given a new
4-bit random value. If the new value is 0000
, the SRIX4K returns its whole 8-bit Chip_ID in
b
its answer to the Pcall16() command. The Pcall16() command is also used to define the slot
number 0 of the anticollision sequence. When the SRIX4K receives the Slot_marker(SN)
command, it compares its Chip_slot_number with the Slot_number parameter (SN). If they
match, the SRIX4K returns its Chip_ID as a response to the command. If they do not, the
SRIX4K does not answer. The Slot_marker(SN) command is used to define all the
anticollision slot numbers from 1 to 15.

7.1 Description of an anticollision sequence
The anticollision sequence is initiated by the Initiate() command which triggers all the
SRIX4K devices that are present in the reader field range, and that are in Inventory state.
Only SRIX4K devices in Inventory state will respond to the Pcall16() and Slot_marker(SN)
anticollision commands.
A new SRIX4K 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.
Ta bl e 3 shows the elements of a standard anticollision sequence. (See Figure 23 for an
example.)

– 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.
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 SRIX4K one by one. After accessing each SRIX4K, 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
SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K by issuing a Select() command containing the desired
Chip_ID. If a collision is detected during the anticollision sequence, the reader has to

generate a new sequence in order to identify all unidentified SRIX4K devices in the field.
The anticollision sequence can stop when all SRIX4K devices have been identified.

Anti-clone functionSRIX4K
8 Anti-clone function
The SRIX4K provides an anti-clone function that allows the application to authentication the
device. This function uses reserved data that is stored in the SRIX4K memory at its time of
manufacture.
The Authentication system is based on a proprietary challenge/response mechanism which
allows the application software to authenticate any member of the secure memory tag
SRXxxx family from STMicroelectronics (of which the SRIX4K is the prime example). A
reader system, based on the ST CRX14 chip coupler, can check each SRIX4K tag for
authenticity, and protect the application system against silicon copies or emulators.
A complete description of the Authentication system is available under non disclosure
agreement (NDA) with STMicroelectronics. For more details about this SRIX4K function,
please contact your nearest STMicroelectronics sales office.

9.1 Initiate() command
Command code = 06h - 00h
Initiate() is used to initiate the anticollision sequence of the SRIX4K. On receiving the
Initiate() command, all SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K 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.

9.2 Pcall16() command
Command code = 06h - 04h
The SRIX4K must be in Inventory state to interpret the Pcall16() command.
On receiving the Pcall16() command, the SRIX4K 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 (1111

value is then compared with the value 0000

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 SRIX4K device in Inventory
state present in the reader field range.

9.3 Slot_marker(SN) command
Command code = x6h
The SRIX4K must be in Inventory state to interpret the Slot_marker(SN) command.
The Slot_marker byte code is divided into two parts:
●b
●b
On receiving the Slot_marker() command, the SRIX4K compares its Chip_slot_number
value with the Slot_number value given in the command code. If they match, the SRIX4K
returns its Chip_ID value. If not, the SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K device in Inventory
state present in the reader field range.

Command code = 0Eh
The Select() command allows the SRIX4K to enter the Selected state. Until this command is
issued, the SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K in
Selected state, that receives a Select() command with a Chip_ID that does not match its
own is automatically switched to Deselected state.

9.5 Completion() command
Command code = 0Fh
On receiving the Completion() command, an SRIX4K in Selected state switches to
Deactivated state and stops decoding any new commands. The SRIX4K is then locked in
this state until a complete reset (tag out of the field range). A new SRIX4K 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 SRIX4K devices not in Selected state ignore the Completion() command.

9.6 Reset_to_inventory() command
Command code = 0Ch
On receiving the Reset_to_inventory() command, all SRIX4K devices in Selected state
revert to Inventory state. The concerned SRIX4K devices are thus resubmitted to the
anticollision sequence. This command is useful when two SRIX4K devices with the same 8bit 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 SRIX4K devices that are not in Selected state ignore the Reset_to_inventory()
command.

9.7 Read_block(Addr) command
Command code = 08h
On receiving the Read_block command, the SRIX4K reads the desired block and returns
the 4 data bytes contained in the block. 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 SRIX4K (addresses 0 to 127).
Read_block commands issued with a block address above 127 will not be interpreted and
the SRIX4K will not return any response, except for the System area located at address
255.
The SRIX4K must have received a Select() command and be switched to Selected state
before any Read_block() command can be accepted. All Read_block() commands sent to
the SRIX4K before a Select() command is issued are ignored.

transmitted with the least significant bit first.
The address byte gives access to the 128 blocks of the SRIX4K (addresses 0 to 127).
Write_block commands issued with a block address above 127 will not be interpreted and
the SRIX4K will not return any response, except for the System area located at address
255.
The result of the Write_block command is submitted to the addressed block. See the

Unique Identifier (UID)
Members of the SRIX4K family are uniquely identified by a 64-bit Unique Identifier (UID).
This is used for addressing each SRIX4K device uniquely after the anticollision loop. The
UID complies with ISO/IEC 15963 and ISO/IEC 7816-6. It is a read-only code, and
comprises (as summarized in Figure 50):
●an 8-bit prefix, with the most significant bits set to D0h
●an 8-bit IC manufacturer code (ISO/IEC 7816-6/AM1) set to 02h (for
STMicroelectronics)
●a 6-bit IC code set to 00 0011b = 3d for SRIX4K
