USB color capture and model selection
A Stacked BSI sensor and 79 fps full-frame rate give MV-CH050-60UC its place among the USB color cameras. It records 2448 × 2048 Bayer GR 8 through USB 3.0, using a global shutter, 2/3-inch sensor and 3.45 µm pixels. The platform addresses compact color stations where moving items must be separated by appearance as well as geometry.
Color-coded components, printed patterns and packaging can be evaluated while the global shutter holds object shape during motion. LCG exposure begins at 30 µs, whereas HCG begins at 5 µs; both extend to 10 sec. Power may come from USB 3.0 or a 9 V DC to 24 V DC source, and the P7 lines support external trigger timing.
MV-CH050-10UC V4.0 uses an IMX250 sensor and reaches 74.1 fps at the same 2448 × 2048 class. MV-CH050-60NC keeps the Stacked BSI color sensor but moves to 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet and 60 fps with PoE. MV-CH050-90TC-C-NF delivers 163.4 fps through 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Choose MV-CH050-60UC for 79 fps color capture and USB bus power.

Selection and applications
Color sorting at 79 fps over USB. Short-exposure inspection of moving packaging. Triggered verification of colored assemblies.
Minimum kit: MV-CH050-60UC, a 2/3-inch C-mount lens, a USB 3.0 cable, and either USB 3.0 bus power or a 9 V DC to 24 V DC supply form the minimum imaging set.
Nearby in the range: MV-CH050-10UC V4.0 — Use it for IMX250-based color capture at 74.1 fps through USB 3.0.; MV-CH050-60NC — Use it for 60 fps color capture over 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet with PoE.; MV-CH050-90TC-C-NF — Use it when 163.4 fps color output and 10 Gigabit Ethernet are required..

FAQ
What distinguishes the LCG and HCG exposure ranges here?
LCG exposure is listed from 30 µs to 10 sec, while HCG extends from 5 µs to 10 sec. The shorter HCG limit can address faster motion; the selected gain mode and lighting should be evaluated with the inspection target.
What full-frame output does USB 3.0 carry from this model?
MV-CH050-60UC produces up to 79 fps at 2448 × 2048 in Bayer GR 8. The interface is USB 3.0 and is also listed as compatible with USB 2.0, while full-rate planning should follow the USB 3.0 operating point.
Can the camera be powered without a separate DC cable?
Yes. USB 3.0 power is supported, and typical consumption is 2.2 W at 5 V DC. A separate 9 V DC to 24 V DC input is also available when external machine power is preferred.
What optical coverage is required by the Stacked BSI sensor?
The sensor format is 2/3 inch and the mount is C-mount. Select a lens that covers the sensor and resolves 3.45 µm pixels across 2448 × 2048, with a focal length appropriate to the imaged scene.
What temperature and enclosure limits apply to MV-CH050-60UC?
The operating interval is -10 °C to 50 °C, with 20% to 95% RH and no condensation. IP40 applies with correct lens installation and wiring, defining the degree of ingress protection available at the camera body.
