Color USB imaging and alternatives
Color output at 4000 × 3036 and 31.9 fps makes MV-CE120-10UC V2.0 the faster high-resolution color USB option in this group. Its 1/1.7-inch Sony IMX226 CMOS sensor has 1.85 µm pixels and a rolling shutter. USB3.0 supplies the image path, with USB2.0 compatibility for the host connection.
The camera fits color-dependent assembly verification, label inspection and detailed static-part analysis. Exposure extends from 30 µs to 0.5 sec, with a 70.5 dB dynamic range and gain from 0 dB to 27 dB. USB3.0 can power the camera, while the 6-pin Hirose port offers isolated input and output plus a bidirectional non-isolated line for station signalling.
MV-CE120-10UM V2.0 keeps the 4000 × 3036, 31.9 fps USB3.0 platform but changes to mono output and a 20 µs minimum exposure. MV-CE120-10GC shifts to Gigabit Ethernet and PoE at 4024 × 3036 and 9.6 fps. MV-CE060-10UC remains a USB3.0 color choice with lower 3072 × 2048 resolution but a higher 42.7 fps ceiling.

Selection and applications
Color-dependent assembly verification. Detailed label inspection at 4000 × 3036. USB-powered indexed capture.
Minimum kit: Start with the MV-CE120-10UC V2.0, a C-mount lens, a USB3.0 cable, and either USB3.0 bus power or a 9 VDC to 24 VDC supply through the 6-pin Hirose connection.
Nearby in the range: MV-CE120-10UM V2.0 — Prefer it for mono output at the same 4000 × 3036 and 31.9 fps.; MV-CE120-10GC — Prefer it for 4024 × 3036 imaging over Gigabit Ethernet with PoE at 9.6 fps.; MV-CE060-10UC — Prefer it for 3072 × 2048 USB3.0 color imaging at 42.7 fps..

FAQ
Which inspections benefit from the documented color output?
The camera produces color images at 4000 × 3036, so it can preserve color differences in label, assembly and presence checks. The 31.9 fps ceiling provides repeated views, while the rolling shutter favours subjects held still during each exposure.
What lens coverage and resolving level should be selected?
Use a C-mount lens that covers the 1/1.7-inch Sony IMX226 sensor. Optical resolution should support the 4000 × 3036 array and its 1.85 µm × 1.85 µm pixels across the field used for inspection.
Can USB3.0 provide all power needed by the color camera?
Yes. USB3.0 can provide the supply, and typical consumption is 3.42 W at 5 VDC. The camera also accepts 9 VDC to 24 VDC, allowing a separate power route through the 6-pin Hirose connection.
What exposure and gain ranges are available for setup?
Exposure is adjustable from 30 µs to 0.5 sec and gain from 0 dB to 27 dB. The stated dynamic range is 70.5 dB. These controls define the camera-side adjustment range for illuminated static or indexed scenes.
What changes between the UC and UM V2.0 executions?
MV-CE120-10UC V2.0 is color and has a 30 µs minimum exposure with typical draw of 3.42 W at 5 VDC. MV-CE120-10UM V2.0 is mono, starts at 20 µs and typically draws 3.18 W; both reach 31.9 fps at 4000 × 3036.
