SC5C0N1 MC SDI Overview
SDI cameras are common on vehicles, drones, inspection rigs and broadcast kit, and the computers that record them are often small embedded boxes with a Mini PCIe slot. The SC5C0N1 MC SDI is Yuan’s Mini PCIe SDI frame grabber for that, with one SDI input and an SDI loop-through output on a 30 x 50.95 mm card, capturing full 1080p60.
The input accepts and captures 1920 x 1080p at 60/50 fps. HD-SDI sources run at 1080p30/25/24, 1080i60/50 and 720p60/50, and SD-SDI at 720 x 480i60 and 720 x 576i50. Capture and preview formats cover RGB24 and RGB32 at 4:4:4, YUY2 at 4:2:2 and YV12 and NV12 at 4:2:0, so frames can go straight to an encoder, a display pipeline or an analytics model without a colour conversion step. SDI embedded audio is captured as stereo at 16-bit and 32 to 48 kHz.
The card is a Minicard on a PCIe x1 link, so it fits the Mini PCIe slots found on many compact boards. An H.26X encoder, cropping and scaling, automatic signal detection and deinterlacing are on board, with support for multiple instances and cards. Software runs through Yuan’s Windows and Linux SDK, and the card works with DirectShow and V4L2 applications such as vMix, OBS, Zoom and Teams. The SC5C0N1 MC AIO adds HDMI, DVI-I and YPbPr inputs, and the SC5A0N1 MC SDI is Yuan’s 1080p30 Mini PCIe SDI card.
Yuan lists driver support for Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10, Linux kernel 2.6.14 or later in 32-bit and 64-bit builds, Linux on ARM and NVIDIA Jetson TX2, Nano, AGX Xavier and Xavier NX modules. Jetson support suits edge units that run analytics on the captured SDI feed. The card measures 30 x 50.95 mm and connects over a PCIe x1 link.

Official Yuan UK Distributor
Things Embedded is an official Yuan UK distributor, supplying the SC5C0N1 MC SDI configured for UK embedded and vehicle video projects. Within the Yuan range the SC5C0N1 MC AIO adds HDMI, DVI-I and YPbPr on the same Mini PCIe size, and the SC5A0N1 MC SDI captures SDI at 1080p30.
As a Mini PCIe SDI card the SC5C0N1 MC SDI sits among our Mini PCIe capture cards and our SDI video capture cards. Where a small system must record an SDI camera at 1080p60 and pass the feed on, this is the model to specify.
