4) Calculation of Actual Writable Memory

Note: Not all of 1KB memory is usable for storing data!

While a MIFARE Classic 1KB card is marketed as having 1KB (1024 bytes) of memory, not all of this memory is usable for storing data. A significant portion is
reserved for keys, access control, and special-purpose blocks like the UID.

Let's recalculate the writable memory.

Memory Structure Recap

A MIFARE Classic 1KB card has:


• 16 sectors
• 4 blocks per sector
• 16 bytes per block

Thus:

16 sectors x 4 blocks/sector x 16 bytes/block = 1024 bytes total memory

Reserved Memory
1. Sector Trailers (1 block per sector):
• Each sector has 1 trailer block (Block 3).
• The trailer stores Key A, Key B, and AccessBits.
• 16 bytes per trailer × 16 sectors = 256 bytes reserved.

2. Sector 0, Block 0 (UID and manufacturer data):


• Permanently reserved for the card's UID and manufacturer data.
• 16 bytes reserved.

Total Reserved Memory= Memory reserved for UID + Memory reserved for trailers
= 256 bytes + 16 bytes
= 272 bytes

Writable Memory = Total Memory - Reserved Memory


= 1024 bytes - 272 bytes
= 752 bytes

Verification:

Writable Memory

1. Sector 0: Blocks 1 and 2 are writable.


Therefore, 2 blocks × 16 bytes/block = 32 bytes writable.

2. Sectors 1–15: Each sector has 3 writable blocks (Blocks 0, 1, and 2).
Therefore, 15 sectors × 3 blocks/sector × 16 bytes/block = 720 bytes writable.

Total Writable Memory = Writable memory in Sector 0 + Writable memory in Sectors 1–15

Total Writable Memory = 32 bytes + 720 bytes = 752 bytes

Thus, the writable data capacity of a MIFARE Classic 1KB card is 752 bytes.
