Extended Coding Scheme
Due to the available memory space the coding principle according to ISO/IEC 7816-4 applies for
SLE 4432, SLE 4442, SLE 4440 and SLE 4441. Data are coded according to the ASN 1 data
objects basic encoding rules using the structure Tag - Length - Value (BER TLV).

The byte definition is explained in the following:
ATR header
Byte H1: Protocol type = ‘A2’ indicating two-wire link protocol
Byte H2: Protocol parameter
Byte H3: Historical byte “Category Indicator” = ‘10’ indicating that the following byte H4 will be a
DIR data reference
Byte H4: Historical byte “DIR data reference” = a pointer (byte address) to the first byte of the
directory section (i.e. TA for Extended Coding Scheme - Compressed or TT for
Extended Coding Scheme - according to German Health Insurance)
