Fast color imaging and neighbours
High-rate color capture at 1440 × 1080 is the defining combination of MV-CB016-10UC-C V4.0. The Sony IMX273 CMOS sensor has a 1/2.9-inch format and global shutter, delivering up to 165.4 fps through USB 3.0. The available datasheet describes the MV-CB016-10UM/UC boards without a V4.0 designation, so the lens mount and mass of this V4.0 execution should be confirmed before the mechanical design is fixed.
The model fits rapid color classification, component-orientation checks and inspection of moving assemblies when its 1440 × 1080 field contains enough detail. Global exposure preserves the relative position of colored features within each frame. USB 3.0 provides operating power at a listed 1.9 W, and two bidirectional non-isolated channels on Line 2 and Line 5 can be used to coordinate capture with the machine and its illumination.
MV-CB016-10GM-S keeps 1440 × 1080 but provides monochrome data from a Sony IMX296 at 65.2 fps over Gigabit Ethernet, with PoE support. MV-CB020-60UC-C increases color resolution to 1624 × 1240 and rate to 179.9 fps over USB 3.0 on a 1/2.53-inch Stacked BSI sensor. Choose MV-CB016-10UC-C V4.0 when its smaller 1/2.9-inch optical format and 165.4 fps color stream fit the embedded design.

Selection and applications
Fast color classification at 165.4 fps. Moving-assembly orientation checks. Embedded global-shutter inspection at 1440 × 1080.
Minimum kit: MV-CB016-10UC-C V4.0, a lens for the 1/2.9-inch sensor that matches the camera's lens mount, and a USB 3.0 cable providing data and power form the minimum imaging kit.
Nearby in the range: MV-CB016-10GM-S — Prefer it for monochrome 1440 × 1080 output over Gigabit Ethernet; MV-CB020-60UC-C — Prefer it for 1624 × 1240 color capture at 179.9 fps.

FAQ
What mount variants exist for MV-CB016-10UC-C V4.0?
The available datasheet covers MV-CB016-10UM/UC boards without a V4.0 designation, so it does not establish the lens mount or mass of this V4.0 execution; both should be confirmed before the optical assembly is designed. Whatever the mount, the optics must cover the 1/2.9-inch Sony IMX273 and its 1440 × 1080 frame.
How are data and operating power connected on the color model?
USB 3.0 carries the image data and supplies the camera's power. The listed consumption is 1.9 W, so the basic embedded connection requires a suitable USB 3.0 link rather than a separate DC supply.
What frame size is available at the stated 165.4 fps?
The camera's listed maximum is 165.4 fps at 1440 × 1080. That provides more spatial samples than the 1280 × 1024 MV-CB013-A0UC-S while retaining a high-rate USB 3.0 color stream.
Which I/O lines can coordinate trigger and illumination?
Two bidirectional non-isolated I/O channels are available, designated Line 2 and Line 5. They provide timing connections for the machine controller, camera event and lighting circuit in an embedded installation.
When does MV-CB020-60UC-C add resolution and frame rate?
Choose MV-CB020-60UC-C when the application needs 1624 × 1240 color at 179.9 fps from a 1/2.53-inch Stacked BSI sensor. The CB016 model instead provides 1440 × 1080 at 165.4 fps.
