Coding

SLE 4432, SLE 4442, SLE 4440 and SLE 4441 are delivered with a customer related unique

code in order to allow an unambiguous identification of the application. Thus a terminal can

clearly accept or reject a card after reading the Answer-to-Reset and the identification data. The

Answer-to-Reset (ATR) for synchronous IC cards according to ISO/IEC 7816 is a standardized

procedure allowing to identify an IC card (ICC) supporting the synchronous Answer-to-Reset. The

Answer-to-Reset data allow an interface device to select the appropriate chip type and operate

the ICC according to the data sheet of the chip.

Two different coding schemes apply

• Extended coding using encoded BER-TLV data objects according to ISO/IEC 7816-4

• 16-bit manufacturer code registered at Pro Electron

Both schemes identify the application by the registered application provider identifier RID

according to ISO/IEC 7816-5

2.1.

Registered Application Provider Identifier RID

The application is generally identified by the customer specific 5-byte registered application

provider identifier RID according to ISO/IEC 7816-5 using the registration category values ‘A’ and

‘D’. The RID is a part of the AID. Thus the AID is constructed as following:

Application identifier AID

Registered application provider identifier

RID (5 byte)

Proprietary application provider identifier

extension PIX (

≤11 byte)

• Registered application provider identifier RID

Customer specific RID provided by the registration authority to the applicant

Meaning

Comment

‘A x xx xx xx xx’ International registration

RID is registered by Tele Denmark

‘D c cc xx xx xx’ National registration

RID is registered by a national authority

‘c cc’

Country indicator

Country code according to ISO 3166

‘xx xx xx’

Application provider sequence no.

Provided by national registration authority

• Proprietary application provider identifier extension PIX

Extension for the RID holder in order to diversify own applications

Application forms for a RID are printed in the Annex A of ISO/IEC 7816-5.

• For international registration one has to apply at the acting registration authority Tele Denmark

for a RID indicated by ‘A’. The contact address is printed in ISO/IEC 7816-5

• For national registration one has to apply at the relevant national standardization body or its

acting registration authority for a RID indicated by ‘D’ followed by the country code

The RID is provided by the customer to Siemens.
