Product Warranty (2 years)
Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its products will be
free from defects in materials and workmanship for two years from the date of pur-
chase.
This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or altered by
persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech, or which have been
subject to misuse, abuse, accident or improper installation. Advantech assumes no
liability under the terms of this warranty as a consequence of such events.
Because of Advantech’s high quality-control standards and rigorous testing, most of

tive, it will be repaired or replaced at no charge during the warranty period. For out-
of-warranty repairs, you will be billed according to the cost of replacement materials,
service time and freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.
If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:
1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For example, CPU
speed, Advantech products used, other hardware and software used, etc.) Note
anything abnormal and list any onscreen messages you get when the problem
occurs.
2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual, product,
and any helpful information readily available.
3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return merchandize
authorization) number from your dealer. This allows us to process your return
more quickly.
4. Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair and Replacement
Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase date (such as your sales receipt)
in a shippable container. A product returned without proof of the purchase date

DSPC-8661-PCXE User Manual 2
1.1 Introduction
Design with TI TMS320DM8168 SoC, DSPC-8661-PCXE is a full-functional video
processing platform with 16-ch composite video and audio inputs based on standard
half-length PCIe board form factor. The board supports H.264 / MJPEG / RAW
encode / decode up to D1 resolution at real-time frame rate (30/25fps) for all chan-
nels simultaneously. The HDMI provides up to 1080p 60fps video / audio outputs that
fulfills the high-definition display requirements. Equipped with a high-performance
C674X Digital Signal Processor (DSP), DSPC-8661-PCXE can afford a system's
host processing by executing image enhancement and video analytics programs.
The I2C and UART interfaces are designed for extending the control and indicator
functions like RS-485 and DIO (on the optional DIO & Control Board). Furthermore,
the versatile peripherals of Giga LAN, SATA and USB ports enriches the data com-
munication, storage as well as user interface functions while the device works at
standalone mode. With an easy-to-use software development kit (SDK), the DSPC-
8661-PCXE is an ideal solution for system integrators to implement diverse video-
processing related applications that fits a broad spectrum of customer requirements.
