Monochrome tasks and resolution tradeoffs

Monochrome 1440 × 1080 capture from a Sony IMX273 defines MV-CA016-10GM V3.0. Its 1/2.9-inch CMOS sensor uses 3.45 µm × 3.45 µm pixels, a global shutter and a maximum full-resolution rate of 78.2 fps. Gigabit Ethernet carries the image data. The camera uses C-mount optics in a 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm enclosure with an approximate mass of 68 g.

Brightness, edge, presence and position checks can use the monochrome output without requiring color separation. Exposure begins at 1 µs, and the global shutter preserves object geometry within the image when motion is present. The 6-pin Hirose connection supplies one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bidirectional line. Power options are PoE or 9–24 V DC, with a typical draw of 3 W at 12 V DC.

MV-CA016-10GC V3.0 keeps the same IMX273, 1440 × 1080 resolution and 78.2 fps rate but records color, so it belongs where visible color affects classification. MV-CA016-10UM uses the same sensor and resolution in monochrome but reaches 249.1 fps over USB 3.0. MV-CA020-10GM V3.0 provides 1624 × 1240 at 60 fps. Choose this model for monochrome IMX273 imaging when Gigabit Ethernet and PoE matter more than maximum USB speed or added resolution.

Selection and applications

Monochrome edge and position inspection. Triggered capture of moving parts. PoE-connected presence checks.

Minimum kit: The minimum kit is an MV-CA016-10GM V3.0 camera, a C-mount lens, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, and either a PoE source or a 9–24 V DC supply.

Nearby in the range: MV-CA016-10GC V3.0 — Choose it when color output is required with the same IMX273 and 78.2 fps rate; MV-CA016-10UM — Choose it for monochrome 1440 × 1080 acquisition at 249.1 fps over USB 3.0; MV-CA020-10GM V3.0 — Choose it for monochrome 1624 × 1240 capture at 60 fps.

FAQ

What image detail and rate does the IMX273 deliver here?

The Sony IMX273 produces monochrome 1440 × 1080 images at up to 78.2 fps. Its 1/2.9-inch format uses 3.45 µm × 3.45 µm pixels and a global shutter, combining spatial sampling with simultaneous exposure.

How short can exposure be for motion-sensitive inspection?

The listed exposure range is 1 µs to 10 sec. At the short end, the global shutter can limit object movement during an exposure, while the camera supplies up to 78.2 full-resolution images each second.

Does PoE remove the need for a separate power conductor?

Yes. PoE is supported over the Gigabit Ethernet connection, so the network cable can carry power and data. The alternative input is 9–24 V DC, and typical camera consumption is 3 W at 12 V DC.

Which I/O lines are available for acquisition timing?

The 6-pin Hirose connector includes one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bidirectional non-isolated I/O line. These connections allow an external trigger and a timed output event to be incorporated into the station.

How does MV-CA016-10UM change throughput and cabling?

MV-CA016-10UM retains monochrome 1440 × 1080 capture with the Sony IMX273 but reaches 249.1 fps and uses USB 3.0. MV-CA016-10GM V3.0 reaches 78.2 fps over Gigabit Ethernet and supports PoE.
