HIKROBOT MV-CH250-20CM-M58S-NN — Area Scan Cameras
25 MP, OnSemi PYTHON25K, Camera Link, Mono, 31.3 fps

The MV-CH250-20CM-M58S-NN is the 25 MP option in the CH series for installations that prefer a Camera Link interface: its OnSemi PYTHON25K global shutter CMOS sensor outputs 5120 × 5120 in Mono 8 at 31.3 fps. The 4.5 μm pixels and 23 × 23 mm sensor area provide 41 dB SNR and 59 dB dynamic range, with a 0–32 dB gain range and 45 μs to 10 s exposure. The fanless body is compact and low-profile at 70 × 70 × 44.3 mm.
The Camera Link connection uses an SDR connector and supports the Full and 80-bit configuration modes; the Camera Link connector also carries the CC1–CC4 control signals. The 12-pin P10 connector provides 9–24 VDC power (typically 9.4 W at 24 VDC), an opto-isolated input and output, a bi-directional line and RS-232. The M58×0.75 mount has an 11.48 mm flange back length; mounting holes on the roughly 380 g IP40 body allow flexible placement. Camera Link V2.0 and GenICam compliance are specified.

Key features
- Resolution of 5120 × 5120 and pixel size of 4.5 μm × 4.5 μm.
- Adopts global shutter CMOS sensor providing wide dynamic range and high-quality image.
- Supports configuration modes of Full and 80-bit via the Camera Link interface.
- Adopts compact design with mounting holes for flexible mounting.
Where it is used
It fits systems that want to bring existing Camera Link-based image processing up to 25 MP: static dimensional measurement of large parts, defect inspection on glass and sheet surfaces, and wide-area printed circuit and panel checks. 31.3 fps is adequate for stations that work with triggered capture, and the CC1–CC4 lines allow trigger and control signals to be issued directly over Camera Link.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
