HIKROBOT MV-CH050-90XC-C-NN — Area Scan Cameras
5 MP, Gpixel GMAX2505, CoaXPress CXP-6, Color, 213 fps

Color at 213 fps: the MV-CH050-90XC-C-NN is the 5 MP CoaXPress camera in the CH series that uses the Gpixel GMAX2505 global shutter CMOS sensor with a Bayer BG color array. The 1/2″ sensor delivers 2592 × 2160 from 2.5 μm pixels; the 213 fps rate in Bayer BG 8, 37 dB SNR and 63.8 dB dynamic range match the monochrome version. Output can be taken as Bayer BG 8/12, YUV 422 Packed or Mono 8, SuperBayer and CCM functions support color processing on the camera side, and gain is set in steps from 1.0x to 2.0x.
The color version draws slightly less than its monochrome sibling at a typical 4.8 W at 12 VDC; power can come from a 9–24 VDC supply or over the coaxial cable via PoCXP on the CXP-1 link. The CoaXPress interface with DIN connector operates at CXP-6 speed, and the 12-pin P10 connector houses Line 0 as an opto-isolated input, Line 1 as an opto-isolated output, Line 2 as a bi-directional non-isolated line and an RS-232 port. The fanless 50 × 50 × 45 mm IP40 body of about 220 g comes with a C-mount of 17.52 mm flange back length and operates from 0 °C to 50 °C; it complies with CoaXPress and GenICam and supports LSC correction and Super Palette along with Off, Once and Continuous exposure modes.

Where it is used
Jobs where color discrimination must happen at high speed fall within this camera’s scope: print and label control on fast packaging lines, sorting of color-coded tablets or capsules, and verification of multi-colored wire harnesses. The 2.5 μm pixel pitch can resolve fine print detail, and 213 fps allows color deviations on continuously moving web materials such as label rolls and foil to be tracked without missing frames.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
