Engineering fit and alternatives
Full-frame Mono 8 acquisition at 27 fps gives MV-CH140-60UM a distinct role among the 13 MP cameras in the lineup. The 1-inch Stacked BSI CMOS sensor has a 4708 × 2824 array, 3 µm pixels and a global shutter. USB 3.0 supplies the bandwidth for detailed monochrome images at three times the listed rate of the color GigE model with the same frame geometry.
The wide image suits measurement of elongated outlines, inspection of component rows and detection of contrast changes across broad surfaces. A global exposure and an 80 µs minimum setting support moving targets when illumination and triggering are coordinated. USB 3.0 can supply both data and power, while the 6-pin P7 connection provides one isolated input, one isolated output and a bidirectional non-isolated line for machine timing.
MV-CH140-60GC shares the 4708 × 2824 Stacked BSI platform but records Bayer GR 8 color at 9 fps over Gigabit Ethernet and supports PoE. MV-CH123-10UM is the other fast monochrome USB choice, reaching 31.5 fps at 4096 × 3000 with a Sony IMX545 and a shorter 29 mm × 29 mm × 30 mm enclosure. Pick MV-CH140-60UM for its wider 13.3 MP monochrome frame, the GC for color and GigE, or the CH123 UM for its 4096 × 3000 geometry and higher rate.

Selection and applications
Monochrome inspection across a wide frame. Global-shutter measurement at 27 fps. USB-powered 13.3 MP acquisition.
Minimum setup: MV-CH140-60UM, a C-mount lens, a USB 3.0 cable, and USB power or a 9 V DC to 24 V DC supply.
Nearby in the range: MV-CH140-60GC — Prefer it for Bayer GR 8 color and Gigabit Ethernet with PoE.; MV-CH123-10UM — Prefer it for 4096 × 3000 Mono 8 acquisition at 31.5 fps..

FAQ
How does MV-CH140-60UM differ from the GigE model with this sensor?
MV-CH140-60UM outputs Mono 8 at 27 fps over USB 3.0. MV-CH140-60GC uses the same 4708 × 2824 Stacked BSI geometry but records Bayer GR 8 color at 9 fps through Gigabit Ethernet. The interface, rate and mono/color requirement separate them.
Can the USB connection supply all power required by MV-CH140-60UM?
USB 3.0 power is explicitly supported, and typical draw is 4.0 W at 5 V DC when USB provides the supply. The camera can also accept 9 V DC to 24 V DC. Its data interface is USB 3.0 with USB 2.0 operation also listed.
How does the MV-CH140-60UM global shutter support line motion?
The global shutter exposes the complete 4708 × 2824 image within one interval, avoiding the row timing of a rolling shutter. Exposure can be set from 80 µs to 10 sec, and the maximum listed full-frame rate is 27 fps in Mono 8.
What lens interface is provided on the MV-CH140-60UM body?
The front interface is C-mount for the 1-inch sensor. Optical selection needs coverage for that format and detail across the 3 µm pixel pitch. The body measures 29 mm × 44 mm × 59 mm and has an approximate mass of 113 g.
Which I/O lines are available for triggering MV-CH140-60UM?
A 6-pin P7 connector carries one opto-isolated input on Line 0, one opto-isolated output on Line 1 and a bidirectional non-isolated Line 2. This separates hardware trigger and output timing from the USB 3.0 image connection.
