Resolution and speed on the network
A 1280 × 1024 frame at 90 fps gives MV-CA013-20GC more spatial sampling than the sub-megapixel high-speed models while retaining motion-capable global exposure. The 1/2-inch OnSemi PYTHON1300 CMOS sensor sends images through Gigabit Ethernet. A C-mount, 29 × 29 × 42 mm body and 12 V DC or PoE supply support a compact networked camera head.
The resolution and rate suit moving-part presence, alignment and shape checks where 672 × 512 or 720 × 540 would provide too few samples. A global shutter aligns the exposure across the image, and 90 fps provides repeated observations during motion. The camera draws a typical 2.7 W, offers GigE Vision V2.0 and GenICam, and operates from 0 to 50 °C. Its enclosure rating is IP30.
Choose MV-CA013-20GC for 1280 × 1024 over Gigabit Ethernet at 90 fps. MV-CA013-21UM uses the PYTHON1300 for mono USB 3.0 capture at 210 fps. MV-CA013-A0GC keeps 1280 × 1024 and a network link, explicitly provides color, and reaches 92.8 fps. MV-CA004-10GC V3.0 is the faster color-network option at 312.9 fps, but its frame is 720 × 540.

Selection and applications
Moving-part alignment checks. Shape inspection at 1280 × 1024. Networked presence verification.
Minimum kit: Combine the camera with a C-mount lens, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, and either PoE or a 12 V DC supply.
Nearby in the range: MV-CA013-21UM — Prefer mono USB 3.0 capture at 1280 × 1024 and up to 210 fps.; MV-CA013-A0GC — Prefer explicit color output over Gigabit Ethernet at 1280 × 1024 and 92.8 fps.; MV-CA004-10GC V3.0 — Prefer color 312.9 fps network capture when 720 × 540 is sufficient..

FAQ
What inspection scale fits the resolution and frame rate?
The camera records 1280 × 1024 at up to 90 fps with a global-shutter OnSemi PYTHON1300. This pairing supports repeated shape, alignment and presence observations on moving items when more image samples are needed than a 720 × 540 camera provides.
Can the Gigabit Ethernet cable also provide camera power?
Yes. The data connection is Gigabit Ethernet and the power entry specifies 12 V DC with PoE support. Typical consumption is 2.7 W, so a powered network connection can combine data and power, or the camera can use the separate 12 V DC route.
Which C-mount lens format matches the PYTHON1300 sensor?
MV-CA013-20GC uses a C-mount in front of a 1/2-inch PYTHON1300 sensor. The lens should therefore be a C-mount type with image-circle coverage for the 1/2-inch format; focal length should follow the required scene coverage and mounting distance.
How does the USB mono neighbour change capture speed?
MV-CA013-21UM uses a PYTHON1300 sensor at the same 1280 × 1024 resolution, but it is mono and transfers over USB 3.0 at up to 210 fps. MV-CA013-20GC instead uses Gigabit Ethernet and reaches 90 fps.
What housing and ambient limits apply to deployment?
The body measures 29 × 29 × 42 mm, weighs 68 g and is rated IP30. Its documented working range is 0 to 50 °C at 20–80% RH. These figures set the mounting, enclosure and thermal conditions for the networked camera.
