 SIMATIC RF300 System Manual, 07/2017, C79000-G8976-C345-07 233  RF300 transponder 7   Features of the RF300 transponders The RF300 transponders (RF3xxT) stand out particularly for their extremely fast data exchange with the RF300 readers (RF3xxR). With the exception of the RF320T transponder, all of the RF300 transponders have 8 to 64 KB of FRAM memory, which has an almost unlimited capacity for reading and writing.
RF300 transponder   7.1 Memory configuration of the RF300 transponders  SIMATIC RF300 234 System Manual, 07/2017, C79000-G8976-C345-07 7.1 Memory configuration of the RF300 transponders  1) Physically identical memory When the OTP area is used, the corresponding user area (FF00-FF13) can no longer be modified (read only). Figure 7-1  Memory configuration of the RF300 transponders
 RF300 transponder  7.1 Memory configuration of the RF300 transponders SIMATIC RF300 System Manual, 07/2017, C79000-G8976-C345-07 235 EEPROM area The memory configuration of an RF300 transponder always comprises an EEPROM that has 20 bytes for user data (read/write) and a 4-byte unique serial number (UID, read only). For reasons of standardization, the UID is transferred as an 8 byte value through a read command to address FFF0 with a length of 8. The unused 4 high bytes are filled with zeros.   Note Write speed The EEPROM user memory (address FF00-FF13, or FF80-FF90) requires significantly more time for writing (approx. 11 ms/byte) than the high-speed FRAM memory. For time-critical applications with write functions, it is advisable to use FRAM transponders (e.g. RF330T, RF340T, RF350T, RF360T, RF370T, RF380T).  FRAM area Depending on the tag type, high-speed FRAM memory is available. (8 KB, 32 KB, 64 KB). This area does not exist for the RF320T. In the case of RF3xxT transponders with FRAM memory, the data carrier initialization command (INIT) is only effective on this memory area but not on the EEPROM area (FF00-FF13). OTP area The EEPROM memory area (address FF00-FF13) can also be used as a so-called "OTP" memory (One Time Programmable). The 5 block addresses FF80, FF84, FF88, FF8C and FF90 are used for this purpose. A write command to this block address with a valid length (4, 8, 12, 16, 20 depending on the block address) protects the written data from subsequent overwriting.   Note Seamless use of the OTP area When the OTP area is used, it must be ensured that the blocks are used starting from Block 0 consecutively. Examples: • 3 blocks (with write command), Block 0, 1, 2 (FF80, length = 12): valid • 2 blocks (consecutive), Block 0 (FF80, length =4), Block 1 (FF84, length = 4): valid • 2 blocks (consecutive), Block 0 (FF80, length =4), Block 2 (FF88, length = 4): Invalid • 1 Block, Block 4 (FF90, length = 4): Invalid

At temperatures above 85 °C, the length of the transmission window is reduced by up to 10%. 7.8.4.2 Temperature response in cyclic operation At ambient temperatures (Tu) up to 110 °C, cyclic operation is not necessary, i.e. up to this temperature, the transponder can be in constant operation.    Note Calculation of the temperature curves Calculation of the temperature curves or of a temperature profile can be carried out on request by Siemens AG. Exact knowledge of the internal temperature facilitates configuration for time-critical applications. You can also carry out the calculation with the aid of the "SIMATIC RF Temperature Calculator" on the "Ident Systems Software & Documentation" DVD (refer to the section "DVD "Ident Systems Software & Documentation" (Page 435)").   Ambient temperatures > 110 °C   Note Cancellation of warranty The internal temperature of the data memory must not exceed the critical threshold of 110 °C. Each heating phase must be followed by a cooling phase. No warranty claims will otherwise be accepted.  Some limit cycles are listed in the table below: Table 7- 20 Limit cycles of data memory temperature Tu (heating up) Heating up  Tu (cooling down) Cooling down 220 °C 0.5 h 25 °C > 2 h 200 °C 1 h 25 °C > 2 h 190 °C 1 h 25 °C > 1 h 45 min 180 °C 2 h 25 °C > 5 h 170 °C 2 h 25 °C > 4 h

This is particularly relevant to temperature-critical applications or those with a complex temperature profile. Ambient temperatures > 220°C   Note Cancellation of warranty The data memory must not be exposed to ambient temperatures > 220 °C. No warranty claims will otherwise be accepted.  However, the mechanical stability is retained up to 230 °C!

 ISO transponder  8.1 Memory configuration of ISO the transponders SIMATIC RF300 System Manual, 07/2017, C79000-G8976-C345-07 277 Memory areas Depending on the manufacturer of the transponder chip, the memory configuration of an ISO transponder consists of varying sizes of user memory. The typical sizes are 112 bytes, 256 bytes, 992 bytes EEPROM or 2000 bytes FRAM. Each ISO transponder chip has an 8-byte long unique serial number (UID, read only). This UID is transferred as an 8 byte value through a read command to address FFF0 with a length of 8. OTP area For the OTP area, a 16-byte address space is always reserved at the end of the memory area. The blocks are divided up depending on the chip (see technical specifications). Note that the corresponding addresses for the user data are therefore not available to the application when the OTP area is used.  A total of 4 block addresses ("mapped" addresses) are provided:  ● FF80 ● FF84 ● FF88 ● FF8C A write command to this block address with a valid length (4, 8, 12, 16 bytes depending on the block address) protects the written data from subsequent overwriting.   Note Exception Fujitsu chip (MDS D4xx and MDS D5xx) The Fujitsu chip MB89R118 (MDS D4xx) has 8-byte blocks, which means that only 2 block addresses have to be addressed: FF80 and FF88 with the length 8 and 16 bytes). The Fujitsu chip MB89R112 (MDS D5xx) has 32 byte blocks and can therefore not be addressed in the OTP area.   Note Restriction to the use of the OTP Observe the following restrictions when using OTP: • The OTP write/lock command can only be sent in static operation. • The OTP write/lock command can not be sent as a chained command. The Fujitsu chip MB89R112 (MDS D5xx) has 32 byte blocks and can therefore not be addressed in the OTP area.   Note Use of the OTP area is not reversible If you use the OPT area, you cannot undo it, because the OPT area can only be written to once.
