Use cases and construction choices

A bare 32.5 mm × 32.5 mm × 1.6 mm format makes MV-CB016-10UM-B V4.0 the deeply embedded mono version of the IMX273 platform. Its 1/2.9-inch global-shutter CMOS sensor records 1440 × 1080 with 3.45 µm pixels. Full-frame operation reaches 165.4 fps in ADC 12 and 249.1 fps in ADC 8, while the board weighs about 10 g.

The camera can sit inside a feeder, instrument or motion assembly for rapid edge measurement and cycle analysis. Global shutter capture holds the outline of moving parts, with UltraShort exposure from 1 µs to 14 µs for synchronized lighting. Standard mode extends from 15 µs to 10 sec. USB 3.0 carries the mono stream and provides 5 VDC power at a typical 1.5 W; two bidirectional non-isolated I/O lines handle timing connections.

MV-CB016-10UM-C V4.0 adds a C-mount in a 35 mm × 35 mm × 8.6 mm, approximately 30 g body. MV-CB016-10UM-S V4.0 uses an S-mount at approximately 43.5 g. Both keep the mono IMX273 and speed modes. MV-CB016-10UC-B V4.0 retains the thin board but changes to color and a typical 1.9 W draw. Use 10UM-B for custom mechanics, C or S according to lens interface, and 10UC-B when color discrimination is necessary.

Selection and applications

Bare-board mono motion measurement. High-rate edge inspection. Internally mounted cycle analysis.

Minimum kit: Use the camera board with a lens and mechanical mount selected for the 1/2.9-inch sensor, plus a USB 3.0 cable to a host supplying 5 VDC power.

Nearby in the range: MV-CB016-10UM-C V4.0 — Choose it when the mono IMX273 platform needs a documented C-mount; MV-CB016-10UM-S V4.0 — Choose it when the same mono speed modes are needed with an S-mount; MV-CB016-10UC-B V4.0 — Choose it for color output on the same 32.5 mm × 32.5 mm × 1.6 mm board.

FAQ

How thin is the MV-CB016-10UM-B V4.0 board assembly?

Its documented envelope is 32.5 mm × 32.5 mm × 1.6 mm, and approximate weight is 10 g. The equipment design must establish an optical holder and lens coverage around the 1/2.9-inch sensor and 1440 × 1080 image.

Which acquisition mode gives MV-CB016-10UM-B V4.0 its top rate?

ADC 8 allows up to 249.1 fps at 1440 × 1080 Mono 8. With ADC 12, the stated ceiling is 165.4 fps at the same resolution. Both modes use the IMX273 global-shutter sensor and USB 3.0 transfer.

What electrical connections does MV-CB016-10UM-B V4.0 require?

USB 3.0 provides image transport and the 5 VDC supply, with typical camera consumption of 1.5 W. Line 2 and Line 5 are the two bidirectional non-isolated I/O connections available for external timing or control.

How can exposure be set for fast motion on the mono B version?

UltraShort mode covers 1 µs to 14 µs and works with the global shutter for tightly timed motion capture. Standard mode begins at 15 µs and reaches 10 sec. Gain adjustment is specified from 0 dB to 17 dB.

What does MV-CB016-10UM-C V4.0 add to this board platform?

The C variant adds a C-mount and changes the package to 35 mm × 35 mm × 8.6 mm at approximately 30 g. It retains the mono 1440 × 1080 output, IMX273 sensor and the 165.4 fps ADC 12 and 249.1 fps ADC 8 limits.
