5.2.2.2 NDEF Format

For Type 3 tags, all the information about the NDEF content is stored within the Attribute Information Block, and therefore Type 3 tags do not use a Capability Container. The Attribute Information Block is always located at Block 0, and contains all the required information to read and write NDEF messages. Unlike the other tag types, the specifications for Type 3 tags have not defined TLVs and therefore they are not used. See Figure 17 for an example of a Text RTD stored in a Type 3 tag.
