4.1
The HCS412’s IFF Mode allows it to function as a bi-
directional token or transponder. IFF mode capabilities
include the following.
• A bi-directional challenge and response sequence
• Read selected EEPROM areas.
• Write selected EEPROM areas.
• Request a code hopping transmission.
• Proximity Activation of a code hopping transmis-

The transponder reader initiates each communication
by turning on the low frequency field, then waits for a
HCS412 to Acknowledge the field.
The HCS412 enters IFF mode upon detecting a signal
on the LC0 LF antenna input pin. Once the incoming
signal has remained high for at least the power-up time

sequence indicating that the it has detected the LF
field, is in IFF Mode and is ready to receive commands
(Figure 4-1). The HCS412 will repeat the field Acknowl-
edge sequence every 255 LF
but no command is received (Figure 4-1).
The transponder reader follows the HCS412’s field
Acknowledge by sending the desired 5-bit command
and associated data. LF commands are always pre-
ceded by a 2 LF

last command or data bit should be followed by leaving
the field on for a minimum of 6 LF

data begins (Figure 4-4). The responses are sent either
on the LC antenna output alone or on both the LC out-
put and the DATA pin, depending on the device config-
uration (Section 4.4.2). This allows for short-range LF
responses as well as long-range RF responses.
Data to and from the HCS412 is always sent Least Sig-
nificant bit first. The data length and modulation format
vary according to the command and the transmission
path.
Data Length and Commands:
• Read and Write transfers 16 bits of data.
• Challenge and Response transfers 32 bits of data.
Modulation Format and Transmission Path:

The response on the DATA pin uses the Encoder
mode’s RF Timing Element (RF
format set by the MOD configuration option (Table 3-6).
The RF responses use the standard Encoder mode for-
mat with the 32-bit hopping portion replaced by the
response data (Figure 4-19). If the response is only 16
bits, the 32 bits will contain 2 copies of the response
(Figure 4-16).

Communication reliability with the token may be
improved by calculating the HCS412’s T

element in communication to and in reception routines
from the token.
Always begin and end the time measurement on rising

may vary but the rising edge relationships should
remain consistent. A common T
