Abstract:
1. A method for the personalization of portable data carriers by writing personalization data into a non-volatile memory, comprising the steps of: carrying out the personalization as a virtual personalization in a virtual data carrier by using a simulation program which completely simulates a real data carrier to be personalized, generating a memory image as a bit-true image of a memory of the virtual data carrier, wherein the memory image contains exact images of initialization data of the memory of the virtual data carrier, the structure of the file system of the memory of the virtual data carrier, and exact physical addresses in a memory of the real data carrier to be personalized corresponding to each memory content of the virtual data carrier, introducing the memory image with the aid of its physical memory addresses into the memory of the real data carrier, and generating the personalization data by the virtual personalization containing individualization data.
