Yuan SC5A0N4 Hybrid PCIe HDMI, SDI and DVI Frame Grabber with 4-Channel Capture at 1080p30

The SC5A0N4 Hybrid is Yuan's four-channel PCIe HDMI, SDI and DVI frame grabber for an x4 slot, with four SDI inputs plus DVI-D and DVI-A connectors for HDMI, YPbPr, S-Video and composite, capturing 1080p at 30/25 fps with an H.26X encoder. It suits multi-camera recording where a computer or equipment feed joins the SDI sources.

  • Inputs: Four SDI inputs plus DVI-D and DVI-A connectors that carry HDMI, YPbPr, S-Video and composite sources.
  • Channels: Yuan rates the card at four channels, each accepting 1920 x 1080p at 60/50 fps and capturing at 30/25 fps.
  • Hardware Encoding: An on-board H.26X encoder compresses the channels on the card, leaving the host CPU for the application.
  • Host Interface: PCIe x4 Gen2 on a 167.65 x 101.03 mm board, with a watchdog listed by Yuan.
  • Operating Systems: Windows 7 to 10, 32-bit and 64-bit Linux, Linux on ARM and NVIDIA Jetson TX2, Nano, AGX Xavier and Xavier NX.

SC5A0N4 Hybrid Overview

A multi-camera recording rarely stays pure SDI. Alongside the cameras there is often a presentation computer, an imaging display or an older analog source that needs to go into the same recording. The SC5A0N4 Hybrid is Yuan’s four-channel PCIe HDMI, SDI and DVI frame grabber for that mix, with four SDI inputs plus DVI-D and DVI-A connectors on one PCIe x4 board.

The DVI connectors carry HDMI, YPbPr, S-Video and composite sources, and Yuan rates the card at four capture channels. Each accepts 1920 x 1080p at 60/50 fps and captures at 30/25 fps, with HD-SDI, SD-SDI, 1080i, 720p and PAL or NTSC formats listed. 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 color conversion step. Each channel captures stereo embedded audio at 16-bit and 32 to 48 kHz.

The card uses a PCIe x4 Gen2 slot and supports multiple instances and multiple cards per host, with cropping and scaling, automatic signal detection, deinterlacing and a watchdog. 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 SC5C0N4 Hybrid is the four-channel SDI and DVI card at 1080p60, and the SC5A0N6 Hybrid moves to five SDI inputs plus DVI for six channels.

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. That lets a hybrid recorder run on Windows, Linux or a Jetson edge unit with one card design. The board measures 167.65 x 101.03 mm.

Official Yuan USA Distributor

Things Embedded is an official Yuan USA distributor, supplying the SC5A0N4 Hybrid configured for USA multi-camera and training projects. Within the Yuan range the SC5C0N4 Hybrid pairs SDI and DVI at 1080p60, and the SC5A0N6 Hybrid adds a fifth SDI input for six channels.

With SDI and DVI on one board the SC5A0N4 Hybrid sits among our SDI video capture cards, our DVI capture cards and our PCIe capture cards. Where SDI cameras and a computer feed must go into one recording from an x4 slot, this is the model to specify.
