Four different WRITE modes are available for this card type, which are distinguished by a flag in the

command data field:

a.

Write
The byte value specified in the command is written to the specified address. This command

can be used for writing personalization data and counter values to the card.

b.

Write with carry
The byte value specified in the command is written to the specified address and the command

is sent to the card to erase the next lower counter stage. Thus, this write mode can only be

used for updating the counter value in the card.

c.

Write with backup enabled (SLE 4436, SLE 5536 and SLE 6636 only)
The byte value specified in the command is written to the specified address. This command

can be used for writing personalization data and counter values to the card. Backup bit is

enabled to prevent data loss when card tearing occurs.

d.

Write with carry and backup enabled (SLE 4436, SLE 5536 and SLE 6636 only)
The byte value specified in the command is written to the specified address and the command

is sent to the card to erase the next lower counter stage. Thus, this write mode can only be

used for updating the counter value in the card. Backup bit is enabled to prevent data loss

when card tearing occurs.

With all write modes, the byte at the specified card address is not erased prior to the write operation

and, hence, memory bits can only be programmed from '1' to '0'.
The backup mode available in the SLE 4436 and SLE 5536 card can be enabled or disabled in the

write operation.
