Pinnacle Hdtv 801e Driver Update
As noted above, the 801 is, architecturally, significantly different then the former 800. In particular, this new device uses a DIBcom 0700C, as opposed to the older device which used an em28xx device. Additionally, this newer device uses the xc5000, whereas the older device used an xc3028.
Here are the chips, according to a thread of discussion from the the linux-dvb mailing list:
