HIKROBOT MV-CH050-10CC — Area Scan Cameras
5 MP, Sony IMX250, Camera Link, Color, 140 fps

For those who need color information at Camera Link speed, the MV-CH050-10CC is the 5 MP color option in the CH series: a 2/3″ Sony IMX250 global shutter sensor producing 140 fps at 2432 × 2048. Output can be taken as Bayer RG 8/10/12 or directly as RGB 8, and 40 dB SNR with 75.4 dB dynamic range is retained despite the color filter. Gain on this model spans 0–17 dB and exposure runs from 15 μs to 10 s.
Data travels over Camera Link with SDR interface to the frame grabber in Base, Medium, Full or 80-bit mode; when RGB 8 output is chosen, bandwidth needs should be planned accordingly. Trigger and status signals use the opto-isolated input (Line 0), opto-isolated output (Line 1) and bi-directional non-isolated line (Line 2) on the 6-pin P7 connector, which also carries the 9–24 VDC supply, with a typical draw of 3.41 W at 12 VDC. The compact 44 × 29 × 59 mm body of about 100 g comes with mounting holes, IP30 protection and a 0–50 °C operating range, and complies with Camera Link V2.0 and GenICam.

Where it is used
Print and label inspection requiring color at high speed, color deviation checks on multi-color packaging lines and verification of component color codes on circuit boards are the natural fields for this camera. At 140 fps it can monitor color consistency on continuously moving web materials such as foil, paper and textiles, while the wide dynamic range helps in cosmetics and automotive interior part inspection, where glossy lacquered and matte surfaces are assessed in the same scene.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
