 Autel AT100 The Universal Super Transponder Chip for IM508 IM608 KM100 10pcs

Autel AT100 Super Chip

• Tool Compatibility: Specifically designed for Autel tools (KM100, IM508, IM608, OTOFIX IM1, IM2)
• Chip Types Supported: Covers a broad spectrum including ID11, ID12, ID13, ID46, ID47, ID48, ID49, ID4A, ID4C, ID5C, ID4D, ID64, ID8A, ID8C, MQB48 and MQB49 (5C). 
• Vehicle Coverage: Excellent coverage across European, Asian, and American models.
• Programming Tools: Compatible primarily with Autel XP200 (limited reading capabilities), XP400, and XP400PRO (full capabilities)
• Key Advantage: Optimized integration with Autel key programmers, streamlined usability, and comprehensive vehicle coverage.

Xhorse Super Chip

• Tool Compatibility: Works primarily with Xhorse tools (Key Tool Max, VVDI Mini Key Tool, Key Tool Max Pro, VVDI Key Tool Plus).
• Chip Types Supported: Supports chip types including ID46, ID4C, ID4D, ID48, ID4E, ID8A, IDBC, Toyota G-Chip, Toyota H-Chip, and more, but typically doesn’t support MQB platforms directly. For MQB you will need XT27B (have to buy remote with XT27B). But XT27A will clone Ford ID49 chip, AT100 does not.
• Vehicle Coverage: Broad support, especially strong in European and Asian markets, though limited MQB support.
• Programming Tools: Exclusively compatible with Xhorse devices, notably the VVDI series.
• Key Advantage: Versatile chip that covers most common chip types, renowned for ease of use and strong compatibility with Xhorse tools.

Key Differences in Performance

1). Scanning Information:

One of the standout differences between the two tools is the level of detail they provide when scanning chips.

1. • The Xhorse XT27A offers more detailed information about the chips it scans. For example, when scanning an Xhorse chip, the tool identifies it as an X27 and provides additional data, which can be very useful for technicians who need to know more about the chip they’re working with.
   • The Autel KM100 (AT100), on the other hand,  Autel system detected a chip data in a slightly different format. It is more straightforward. It scans and identifies chips efficiently but doesn’t provide as much detailed information as the Xhorse tool. This makes it a good option for those who prefer simplicity and speed over in-depth data.

2). User Experience:

• • The Autel KM100 is known for its ease of use. It’s a plug-and-play device that gets the job done quickly, making it ideal for professionals who need to clone chips without much hassle.
  • The Xhorse XT27A is also user-friendly but leans more towards providing a detailed experience. It’s designed for technicians who want to dive deeper into the technical aspects of chip cloning. After reading chip information, vvdi will do cloning automatically. AT100 needs to manually choose chip type before cloning. 

3). Compatibility:

• Both tools are compatible with a wide range of transponder chips, but the Xhorse XT27A seems to have a slight edge when it comes to identifying and working with its own proprietary chips (like the X27). The Autel KM100 is more generic in its approach, which can be an advantage when working with a variety of chips from different manufacturers.

• Xhorse VVDI remains superior for explicit resetting and broader legacy chip support.

• Autel AT100 is a strong alternative for basic cloning and reuse via overwriting, making it useful for loaner keys or temporary solutions.

In short, choose Autel AT100 if you primarily use Autel equipment and need broader vehicle (especially MQB48 and MQB49 5C) coverage. The Autel AT100 chip is a functional but less automated solution compared to tools like VVDI XT27A. Choose Xhorse Super Chip if you primarily use Xhorse equipment and seek strong, reliable general-purpose chip programming.
