Mainstream con tactless smart card IC
Value blocks are special counters where the stored value can be manipulated with
specific comma nd s suc h as M F In cre m ent, MF Decrement and M F Transfer.
These value blocks have a fixed data format enabling error detection and correction with
backup management to be performed. Value blocks are only available in security level 1.
A successful mutual authentication is required to allow any data operation.
8.1.2.1 A c ce s s co n di tions
The access conditions for every data block and the sector trailer itself are stored in the
sector trailer of the corresponding sector.
The access bits control the rights of memory operations using the secret keys A and B.
The access conditions may be altered after authentication with the relevant key and the
current access condition allows this operation.
Furthermore, value blocks are configured using the access bits.
8.1.3 AES keys
AES keys are not shown in the memory map. The keys are stored on top of the other data
and can be updated and used by referencing the so-called Key Number. In security
level 3, anti-tearing is supported for the update of AES keys as well as for the update of
the sector trailer. This anti-tearing mechanism is done by the PICC itself. The EEPROM
stays in a defined status, even if the PICC is removed from the electromagnetic field
during the write operation.
8.1.4 Multi-sector authentic ation
A new feature has been provided in se curity le vel 3 for data which is spread over multiple
sectors to improve transaction performance.
Providing that such sectors are secured with identical keys (key value and key type) only
one authentication is required to read and/or write data from these sectors. There is no
need to re-authenticate when accessing any data within th es e sec to rs. The r efo re it is
possible to configure a card in such a way that operating with only one authentication is
needed in security level 3 to access all sectors.
8.1.5 Originality function
The originality function is implemented by an AES authentication with the originality key.
The authentication is performed in ISO/IEC 14443-4 protocol layer.
8.2 Card activation and communication protocol
The ISO/IEC 14443-3 anticollision mechanism allows for simultaneous handling of
multiple PICCs in the field. The anticollision algorithm selects each PICC individually and
ensures that execution of a transaction with a selected PICC is performed correctly
without data cor ruption from other PICCs in the field.

Mainstream con tactless smart card IC
There are three different versions of the PICC. The first two have the UID programmed
into a locked pa rt of the NV-memory which is reserved for the manu facturer:
the first is a unique 7-byte serial number
the second is a unique 4-b yte ser i al num be r
Due to security and system requirements, these byte s ar e writ e- pr otected after being
programmed by the PICC manufacturer at production.
The third version has a p seudo-unique ID according to ISO/IEC 14443-3 and uses the
XFh ID range.‘
The customer must decide which UID length to use when ordering the product, see
Table 2 for ordering information.
During person alization, the PICC can be con f igured to support Random ID in security
level 3. The user can co nfigure whethe r Random ID o r fixed UID shall be us ed. According
to ISO/IEC 14443-3 (see Ref. 5), the first anticollision loop returns the Random Number
Tag 08h, the 3-byte Rando m Number a nd the BCC, if Random ID is used. The retrieval of
the UID in this case can be done using the Virtual Card Support Last command (see
Ref. 3) or by reading out block 0.
8.2.1 Backwards compatibility protocol
The backwards compatibility of this product, as used in security level 1 and security
level 2, runs on the same protocol layer as MIFARE Classic 1K and MIFARE Classic 4K.
The protocol is formed out of the following components:
Frame definition: according to ISO/IEC 14443-3
Bit encoding: according to ISO/IEC 14443-2
Error code handling: handling is proprietary as error codes are for matted in half bytes.
Command specification: commands are p roprietary. Please use the specification as in
Ref. 1 and Ref. 2 and the additional commands which are only implemented in
MIFARE Plus as described in this document and in Ref. 3.
The following secur ity lev els ca n ru n on this pr ot oc ol:
Security Level 0
Security Level 1
8.2.2 ISO/IEC 14443-4 Protocol
The ISO/IEC 14443-4 Protocol (also known as T=CL) is used in many processor cards.
This protocol is used for the MIFARE Plus with the following security levels:
Security Level 0: all commands
Security Level 1: only the security level switch and originality function.
Security Level 3: all commands

8.3 Security level switching
The MIFARE Plus S offers a unique feature to support migration from CRYPTO1 based
systems to AES based operation. The migration on the card-side is done using different
security levels supporting different cryptographic algorithms and protocols. There are
three security levels:
Security level 0: initial delivery configuration, used for card personalization
Security level 1: backwards functional compatibility mode (with MIFARE Classic 1K
and MIFARE Classic 4K) with an optional AES authentication
Security level 3: 3-Pass authentication based on AES, data manipulation commands
secured by AES encryption and an AES based MACing method.
The security level switching (i.e. from security level 1 to security level 3) is performed
using the dedicated AES authentication switching keys.
The security level can only be switched from a lower level to a higher level, never in the
opposite direction.
8.4 Security level 0
Security level 0 is the initial delivery configuration of the PICC. The card can be operated
either using the backwards compatibility protocol or the ISO/IEC 14443-4 protocol.
In this level, the card can be personalized including the programming of user data as well
as of CRYPTO1 and/or AES keys. In addition, the originality function can be used.
The following mandatory AES keys need to be written using the Write Perso command
before the PICC can be switched to security level 1 or security level 3 (for L3 card) .
Security level switching is performed using the Commit Perso command:
Card Configuration Key
Card Master Key
Level 3 Switch Key
Using the originality function, it is possible to verify that the chip is a genuine
NXP Semiconductors MIFARE Plus.
8.5 Security level 1
Security level 1 offers the same functionality as a MIFARE Classic 1K and MIFARE
Classic 4K using the backwards compatibility protocol. The MIFARE Classic 1K and
MIFARE Classic 4K products are specified in Ref. 1 and Ref. 2.
Furthermore, an optional AES authentication is available in this level without af fecting the
MIF ARE Classic 1K and MIFARE Classic 4K functionality. The authenticity of the card can
be proven using strong cryptographic means with this additional functionality.
The timings may differ from the MIFARE Classic 1K and MI FARE Classic 4K pro duc ts.
Using the originality function, it is possible to verify that the chip is a genuine
NXP Semiconductors MIFARE Plus.

8.6 Security level 3
The operation in security level 3 is solely based on the ISO/IEC 14443-4 protocol layer.
The usage of the backwards compatibility protocol is not possible.
In security level 3, a mandatory AES authentication between PICC and reader is
conducted, where two keys are gen erated as a function of the random numbers from the
PICC and the reader as well as of the shared key. These two session keys are used to
secure the data wh ich is exchanged on the interf ace between the card and r eader. One of
the two keys is used to ensure the confidentiality o f the comm and and th e response while
the other key ensures the integrity of the command and the response.
All commands carry a MAC, such that the PICC will only accept commands from the
reader with which it is au thenticated. Tampering of opera nds and messages is detected by
checking the MAC. Also all responses contain a MAC, so that the reader on each
response knows that neither the command nor the response has been tampered with.
Each response carries a MAC. When the appropriate MAC is received, due to linking of
MACs, the reader knows that the command and commands before it was properly
executed.
All commands between two cons ecutive first authenticate commands belong to one
transaction and the MACing mechanism assures inte gr ity of th e whole tran sa ct ion .
