5 Overview
5.1 Definition of the Financial IC Display Cards

The financial IC display cards (hereinafter referred to as Display Cards) are a kind
of value-added products of the financial IC cards, which may display the
non-sensitive information within the display cards, such as EC balance, transaction
log and custom data of the issuer by integrating the E paper technology and other
display technologies and may also display the transaction authentication data by
combining dynamic passwords, the digital certificate application and other func-
tions.

The display cards have to be dual interface cards. The financial IC chip shall sup-
port the debit and credit applications and the micropayment function of the standard
CUP IC cards, and shall also be able to support and display communications with
the display module. If the display module does not work, while the chip of the fi-
nancial IC card functions well, the chip shall be able to work continually.

5.2 Working Principle of Financial IC Display Cards

The functional framework of display cards is shown as follows:

Fig. 5-1 Functional Framework of Display Card

A display card is composed of two major functional modules: the financial IC

module and the display module. The financial IC module shall function in accord-
ance with the requirements of UICS , and shall at the same time, have a communi-
cation interface with the display module; the display module shall be able to obtain
specified data from the financial IC module and display such data via the display
medium according to conventions of internal procedures and external inputs.

The working mode of the financial IC display cards may be divided into two types
according to the difference of interface between the financial IC module and the
display module.

Active mode of the financial IC module: the financial IC chip actively pushes spec-
ified data during a transaction to the display module after being connected with
power via POS or ATM or other external devices. The display module will directly
display such data on the display medium or firstly store them in the storage area of

UPI Confidential 7
Part VIII Display Card Specification

the display module and display such data after receiving corresponding keyboard
inputs of the display card. The active mode of the financial IC module is applicable
to the push of non-sensitive, static data, such as EC balance and data specified by
the issuer. In this mode, the financial IC chip is required to actively transfer the
specified data according to a specific format to the display module via the interface
with the display module; refer to Part 9 for definition of the format.

Active mode of the display module: the display module actively sends commands
to the financial IC module and read and display the specified data from data re-
turned from the financial IC module. In this mode, the power of the financial IC
display card is supplied by a battery within the card and the display function is
triggered by the keyboard input of the card. This mode may be used to read the
non-sensitive, static data such as EC balance and specified data of the issuer, and
may also be used to generate CUP standard dynamic passwords. Relevant proce-
dures and commands shall be consistent with UICS.

6 Electro-Mechanical Properties, Logical Interface and Transport Protocol

The internal physical structure of the display cards defined in this Specification is
composed by the financial IC module and the display module.

The financial IC module includes a financial IC chip, a contact interface circuit and
a contactless interface circuit. The display module includes a display chip, a display
driving circuit, a keyboard I/O and a display medium. The display module using E
paper as the display medium also includes a boost circuit. The display medium may
be E paper or LCD, etc. A battery is used to supply power to the display module
and the financial IC chip in order to obtain and display data in the financial IC chip.
The users may use the keyboard to select functions of the financial IC display card
and input transaction information. The communication between the financial IC
module and the display module is conducted via the ISO/IEC 7816 or other inter-
faces.

8 Data Display Procedures under Active Mode of Display Chip

This part defines the procedures for the display chip under active mode to read and
display non-sensitive data in the financial IC chip via the display medium. The in-
terface, protocol and APDUC commands between the display chip and the financial
chip shall be consistent with definitions in UICS and are not detailed here.

When the display chip reads the financial IC chip, the card is powered by the inter-
nal battery. Data read by the display chip will be directly displayed on the display
medium and will not be stored in the display chip.

The display time length of data under active mode of the display chip is a continu-
ous, configurable time range and may be configured according to the needs of the
issuer.

Time interval for time range: 0-128seconds

Default time length: 30seconds

The display cards that only support the function of displaying the EC balance may
choose to continuously display the current EC balance without disappearing.

8.1 EC Balance Display Procedures under Active Mode of Display Chip

After the financial IC display card has been powered, if the function key for dis-
playing the balance is selected, the display chip will send the APDU command to
the financial IC to display the balance on the display medium.

The multi-currency EC display cards shall be able to display all currency types and
balance via function keys.

The essential function of display cards that have keyboard display module is that
their display chip is able to read the EC balance when under active mode.

9 Data Elements and Commands

The exchanged commands and transmitted data elements between the financial IC
chip and the display chip of financial IC display cards are defined in this part. As
the transport protocol between the financial IC chip and the display chip is not de-
fined in this Specification, this part only provides abstract definition for commands
and only defines key data elements included in such commands. The data elements
of the display cards must adopt TLV format. If a data element has been defined in
UICS, the tag, length and format of the data element must be in conformity with
requirements in UICS.

9.1 Format of Data Elements

The data elements in this part are used for calling corresponding display applica-
tions within the card, and provide display output and keyboard input functions for
internal applications of the display card.

10 Application of CUP Dynamic Passwords

The dynamic password function of the display cards shall be in conformity with the
UnionPay Integrated Circuit Card Specification – Product Specification Part 3
Dynamic Password Specification. The difference between the dynamic password
function of the display cards and the dynamic password application specification is
that the display module replaces the terminal to send commands to the financial IC:

 As the display cards have the display and keyboard input functions, the pass-
word calculation is no longer driven by the GENERATE AC command at the
reader terminal; instead, the function keys on the card will send the APDU
command to the financial IC via the display module to initiate the dynamic
password function.

 Upon receiving the application cryptogram, the financial IC will complete the
information combination and compression within the display module and dis-
play the dynamic password on the display medium. The user may upload the
dynamic password to the authentication server of the issuer for dynamic
password authentication.

The display time length of dynamic passwords is a continuous, configurable time

range and may be configured according to the issuer’s needs.

Time interval for time range: 0-128seconds

Default time length: 30seconds

The CUP dynamic password application is defined to be an optional application of

the display cards.

10.1 Overview of CUP Dynamic Password Function

The CUP dynamic password application is based on the method that the financial
IC card user authentication and transaction authorization is completed via crypto-
gram under online payment environment and it also generates the application cryp-
togram via the standard command-- GENERATE AC as regulated in the UICS
specification. The differences of the two lie in: the financial IC card online transac-
tion authorization (payment transaction) will require the cryptogram information
data (CID), application transaction counter (ATC), application cryptogram (AC)
and the issuer's application data (IAD) returned by the full uploading command;
however, the financial IC card dynamic password method only requires the ATC,
AC and the Card verification result (CVR) in the IAD returned by some parts of the
uploading command; the concrete operation procedures are: the challenge code or
transaction information input at the reader terminal will be filled into corresponding
space of the source of transaction data to cover the original default data in order to
differentiate the transaction processes. The changed transaction data source will be
sent to the IC card as input data. Relevant cryptograms generated by the card will
be fed back to the reader terminal, which will then combine and compress key in-

UPI Confidential 27

formation into digits displayed on the screen. The card holder may provide the dig-
its to the issuer for verification.

After obtaining the dynamic password, the issuer will conduct anti-compression
and repeat the encryption process for relevant information by adopting the same
calculation method. If the same cryptogram is obtained, it may be proved the
transaction is conducted via true cards.

11 Application of Non- CUP Standard Dynamic Passwords

Non-CUP standard dynamic passwords refer to dynamic passwords generated by
the display chip which have no relationship with the financial IC chip.

The application of non- CUP standard dynamic passwords is an optional applica-

tion of the display cards. The application procedures, data elements and commands
of non-CUP standard dynamic passwords are not defined in this Specification. The
requirements on application and security are as follows:

1. The application of non-CUP standard dynamic passwords shall not influence

other applications defined in this Specification;

2. The algorithm for generating dynamic passwords shall meet the requirements
of commercial cryptographic algorithm.

12 Security Mechanism
12.1 Security Requirements for Display Module

Except the interface between the display module and the financial IC chip, the
cards shall not have any external communication interface.

If the display chip is destroyed by external force, it must be able to destroy all in-
ternal data.

No operations endangering the security of the IC chip are allowable.

The failure of the display module shall not influence the normal operation of the
financial IC chip.

12.2 Communication Security Requirements

The communication mode with check functions, such as odd-even check or CRC,
shall be applicable to communications between the financial IC chip and the dis-
play module to avoid communication mistakes.

12.3 Data Security Requirements

The tamper-resistant mechanism must be available to data stored in the display chip
to prevent changes to the data within the display chip, except for changes made via
the financial IC interface or via built-in applications of the display chip permitted
by the issuer.

It is not suggested to transmit sensitive data between the security module and the
display module. If so required by the issuer, the sensitive data must be transmitted
in form of signed cryptogram and shall not be stored in the display module. The
transmission of non-sensitive data is not defined in this Specification.
