Tasks and place in the range
Dual USB 3.0 raises compact color acquisition to 30 fps in MV-CH250-90VC. The 26.2 MP Gpixel GMAX0505 uses a global shutter and delivers 5120 × 5120 Bayer BG 8 images from 2.5 µm pixels. Despite the increased link arrangement, the C-mount camera retains a 29 mm × 44 mm × 59 mm enclosure weighing about 100 g.
The full-frame speed supports color checks on moving labels, packaging, printed registration, and assembled parts. UltraShort exposure starts at 2 μs for strobed capture, while standard exposure extends to 10 sec. Both USB 3.0 interfaces can provide the 5 V DC supply for the typical 5.5 W load; a P7 connection adds isolated input and output plus a bidirectional I/O line for synchronized acquisition.
MV-CH250-90VM keeps dual USB 3.0, 30 fps, C-mount, and the same body but changes the output to Mono 8 and lowers typical draw to 4.8 W. MV-CH250-90UC V4.0 is the single-USB color version at 14 fps with IP30 rather than IP40. MV-CH250-90TC-M58S-NF reaches 41.5 fps in color through 10 Gigabit Ethernet and uses a larger fan-cooled M58 body.

Selection and applications
Moving color label inspection. Printed registration verification. Compact high-detail color capture.
Minimum kit: Connect the camera to a C-mount lens for the 1.1-inch sensor and two USB 3.0 host cables, using USB power or a separate 9–24 V DC source.
Nearby in the range: MV-CH250-90VM — Pick it for Mono 8 at the same 30 fps dual-USB rate and body size; MV-CH250-90UC V4.0 — Pick it for 14 fps color imaging through a single USB 3.0 connection; MV-CH250-90TC-M58S-NF — Pick it for 41.5 fps color transfer over 10 Gigabit Ethernet with M58 mounting.

FAQ
What does dual USB 3.0 enable on MV-CH250-90VC at full frame?
The dual USB 3.0 arrangement carries 5120 × 5120 Bayer BG 8 output at up to 30 fps. Each interface is also listed as compatible with USB 2.0, while the stated full-frame performance is tied to the dual USB 3.0 configuration.
How does MV-CH250-90VC handle short motion exposures?
The global-shutter sensor offers an UltraShort range from 2 μs to 8 μs and a standard range from 9 μs to 10 sec. The short settings support strobed capture when color features on a moving object must retain their geometry.
Can the two USB links also provide power to MV-CH250-90VC?
Yes. The dual USB 3.0 interfaces can supply 5 V DC, at which typical camera consumption is 5.5 W. An external input from 9 V DC to 24 V DC is another listed powering method for the same camera.
Which C-mount lens format covers the MV-CH250-90VC color sensor?
Lens selection should cover the 1.1-inch Gpixel GMAX0505 and resolve its 2.5 µm pitch across 5120 × 5120 pixels. The mechanical connection is C-mount; focal length is then chosen from the captured area and working distance.
What temperature and enclosure rating apply to MV-CH250-90VC?
Operation is specified from -10 °C to 40 °C, with 20% RH to 95% RH and no condensation. The enclosure is IP40 when lens and wiring are installed correctly, and the compact body measures 29 mm × 44 mm × 59 mm.
