+## Importing RSA keys above 2048 bits (3072 or 4096 bits)
+
+The size of the internal buffer is set by default to a value that
+permits to import RSA 2048 bits. If your card is able to deal with RSA
+keys of 3072 or 4096 bits and you want to be able to import such keys,
+then you need to adjust the size of this buffer:
+
+- for RSA 2048 bits, `Constants.INTERNAL_BUFFER_MAX_LENGTH` must be at
+  least `(short)0x3b0`;
+
+- for RSA 3072 bits, `Constants.INTERNAL_BUFFER_MAX_LENGTH` must be at
+  least `(short)0x570`;
+
+- for RSA 4096 bits, `Constants.INTERNAL_BUFFER_MAX_LENGTH` must be at
+  least `(short)0x730`.
