This EF contains the Ki (secret A3/A8 key), the IMSI (subscriber identity number) and the ICCID (card serial number).It is a record-oriented file with a record length of 0x4a bytes. There is one record for each of the identities thatthe card supports. They are numbered from 0x01 up to 0x10.
This reader follows a so-called Phoenix design, in which a 3.579 MHz crystal is used in combination with two inverters of a 74HC08 to clock the card, while two other inverters and a transistor are used to connect the data line to a RS232 port. The schematics are probably very close to [
