Five-megapixel application profile
A 5 MP global-shutter image at 60 fps places MV-CB050-11UC-C between the faster low-resolution boards and the rolling-shutter high-resolution group. Its 2/3-inch Sony® IMX264 color sensor outputs 2448 × 2048 from 3.45 µm pixels. The camera uses USB 3.0 with USB 2.0 support and integrates a C-mount in a 29 mm × 29 mm × 31.3 mm body.
The resolution and global exposure suit color inspection of moving components where more spatial detail is needed than the 1.6 MP or 2 MP models provide. It can examine feature placement, color regions and part geometry at up to 60 fps. UltraShort exposure spans 1 µs to 14 µs, and Standard mode covers 15 µs to 10 sec. USB supplies 5 VDC at a typical 2.8 W, while two bidirectional non-isolated I/O lines handle external timing.
MV-CB020-60UC-S lowers resolution to 1624 × 1240 but raises speed to 179.9 fps and uses S-mount. MV-CB060-10UC-C V4.0 raises resolution to 3072 × 2048 and reaches 60.9 fps, but its Sony® IMX178 sensor uses a rolling shutter. MV-CB016-10GC-C supplies 1440 × 1080 at 65.2 fps over Gigabit Ethernet with PoE. Choose CB050-11UC-C when color, 5 MP detail, global shutter and C-mount USB operation are the defining combination.

Selection and applications
Five-megapixel moving-part inspection. Color feature placement checks. Globally exposed geometry capture.
Minimum kit: Use the camera with a C-mount lens covering the 2/3-inch sensor and a USB 3.0 cable connected to a host that supplies 5 VDC power.
Nearby in the range: MV-CB020-60UC-S — Choose it when 179.9 fps is needed at 1624 × 1240 with S-mount color capture; MV-CB060-10UC-C V4.0 — Choose it for 3072 × 2048 color output at 60.9 fps when rolling shutter suits the scene; MV-CB016-10GC-C — Choose it for C-mount color imaging over Gigabit Ethernet with PoE at 65.2 fps.

FAQ
Which lens format covers the MV-CB050-11UC-C sensor?
The camera has a C-mount and a 2/3-inch Sony® IMX264 sensor. A C-mount lens selected for at least that sensor format is required to cover the 2448 × 2048 active area and provide the intended field of view.
Can MV-CB050-11UC-C image moving parts at the full 5 MP format?
It uses a global shutter and reaches 60 fps at 2448 × 2048, so the full frame shares the exposure timing during motion. UltraShort mode permits 1 µs to 14 µs exposure when synchronized illumination can support short capture.
How does MV-CB050-11UC-C receive power and send images?
USB 3.0 carries the color image stream and provides the specified 5 VDC supply. Typical consumption is 2.8 W. USB 2.0 operation is supported, and Line 2 plus Line 5 supply two bidirectional non-isolated I/O points.
What exposure range is available on MV-CB050-11UC-C?
UltraShort mode covers 1 µs through 14 µs, while Standard mode starts at 15 µs and extends to 10 sec. Gain is adjustable from 0 dB to 24 dB, and the color sensor has a stated 72 dB dynamic range.
How does MV-CB050-11UC-C compare with the 6.3 MP C-mount model?
MV-CB060-10UC-C V4.0 provides 3072 × 2048 at 60.9 fps with a rolling shutter and 1/1.8-inch sensor. MV-CB050-11UC-C provides 2448 × 2048 at 60 fps with a global shutter and larger 2/3-inch sensor.
