== Application in RF remote control ==

A rolling code transmitter is useful in a security system for providingimproving securethe encryptedsecurity of [[radio frequency]] (RF) transmission, comprising an interleaved trinary bit fixed code and rolling code. A receiver demodulates the encrypted RF transmission and recovers the fixed code and rolling code. Upon comparison of the fixed and rolling codes with stored codes and determiningseeing that thethey signalpass hasa emanatedset fromof analgorithmic authorized transmitterchecks, a signal is generated to actuate an electric motor to open or close a movable component.{{citation-needed|date=November 2023}}

{{main|KeeLoq}}

The Microchip HCS301 was once the most widely used system on garage and gate remote control and receivers. The chip uses the KeeLoq algorithm. The HCS301 KeeLoq system transmits 66 data bits.:

* 34 bits are not encrypted : a 28-bit serial number, 4 bits of button information, and 2 status bits (repeat and low battery indicators).

* 32 bits are encrypted (the rolling code) : 4 bits of button information, 2 bits of OVR (used to extend counter value), 10 bits of DISC (discrimination value; often the low 10 bits of the serial number), and a 16-bit counter.<ref>{{Citation |last=Microchip |title=HC301 KeeLoq Code Hopping Encoder |year=2001 |id=DS21143B |publisher=Microchip Technology Inc. |url=http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/devicedoc/21143b.pdf}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://garagedoorpitt.com/garage-door-remote-not-working-reasons/|title=Garage Door Remote Not Working Reasons| date=4 November 2021 }}</ref> In a resyncing situation, the encrypted 32 bits are replaced with a 32-bit seed value.

As detailed at [[KeeLoq]], the algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a variety of attacks, and has been completely [[Broken (cryptography)|broken]].
