HIKROBOT MV-CH050-10UC — Area Scan Cameras
5 MP, Sony IMX250, USB3.0, Color, 74.1 fps
The MV-CH050-10UC is the 5 MP USB3.0 V4 model that puts a color filter on the same 2/3″ Sony IMX250 global shutter sensor, intended for high-resolution jobs in the CH series where color information matters. Delivering 74.1 fps in Bayer RG 8, it can also output YUV422, RGB 8 and BGR 8 directly, so color conversion can happen inside the camera rather than on the host. It shares 40 dB SNR, 71 dB dynamic range and a 0–24 dB gain range with its monochrome sibling, and keeps the 1–14 μs UltraShort exposure mode.
The color model draws a typical 2.8 W at 5 VDC over USB3.0, so a single USB3.0 link carries both data and power, with USB2.0 compatibility retained. External 9–24 VDC supply and digital I/O go through the 6-pin P7 connector: Line 0 is an opto-isolated input, Line 1 an opto-isolated output and Line 2 a bi-directional non-isolated line. The 29 × 29 × 30 mm housing weighs roughly 80 g and mounts from four sides; it complies with USB3 Vision and GenICam and supports image-processing functions such as LSC, Sequencer and Super Palette.

Where it is used
Color 5 MP imaging with direct RGB output suits label and print quality control, wire color-code verification and color-based sorting in food and pharmaceutical packaging. The short exposure mode avoids blur on colored products moving along a conveyor, and USB power enables compact desktop or robot-mounted color inspection stations that run on a single cable.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
