HIKROBOT MV-CH050-60UC — Area Scan Cameras
5 MP, Stacked BSI CMOS, USB3.0, Color, 79 fps
For those wanting 5 MP color at 79 fps over USB3.0, the MV-CH050-60UC is the CH-series model that pairs the Stacked BSI global shutter CMOS sensor with a Bayer GR array. The 2/3″ sensor with 3.45 μm pixels provides 2448 × 2048 resolution, 42.4 dB SNR and 73.9 dB dynamic range, and a Super Bayer function supports color reconstruction quality. LCG mode offers 0–13 dB gain with exposure from 30 μs, HCG mode 0–24 dB with exposure down to 5 μs; output can be Bayer GR 8/10/12 as well as YUV422, RGB 8 and BGR 8.
Data and power arrive over the same USB 3.0 link; the color model draws a typical 2.2 W at 5 VDC and remains USB 2.0 compatible. External 9–24 VDC supply, an opto-isolated input (Line 0), an opto-isolated output (Line 1) and a bi-directional non-isolated line (Line 2) are on the 6-pin P7 connector, and hardware trigger, software trigger and free-run modes are supported. The newly designed 29 × 29 × 30 mm IP40 body of about 80 g mounts from four sides and operates from -10 °C to 50 °C; USB3 Vision and GenICam compliance comes with Sequencer and Super Palette functions and automatic or manual white balance, gain, exposure, LUT and Gamma settings.

Where it is used
A 79 fps color stream suits sorting of color-coded parts on fast lines, verification of component and silkscreen colors on circuit boards, and pattern checks in textiles. The high dynamic range and short exposure in HCG mode make it easier to catch color deviation on glossy plastic or metal packaging under strobed lighting, and the USB-powered compact body also fits desktop quality-control stations and robot-mounted applications.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
