High-speed color work near the host
Color acquisition at 240.4 fps places MV-CS013-80UC in the high-rate part of the 1.3 MP range. The SS CMOS sensor provides 1280 × 1024 Bayer BG 8 output, a global shutter, 4 µm pixels and a 1/2.7-inch optical format. USB 3.0 transports the full-frame stream, with USB 2.0 support also stated. The 29 mm × 29 mm × 30 mm body is arranged for a compact station close to its processing connection.
This frame rate can follow closely spaced parts, capture successive positions of a mechanism, and inspect color-coded features without rolling-shutter geometry changes. The 1280 × 1024 grid supplies more spatial information than the lower-resolution cameras while still emphasizing temporal sampling. A C-mount lens should cover the 1/2.7-inch sensor and make the required feature large enough for both color classification and position measurement.
MV-CS013-80UM retains USB 3.0, the 240.4 fps ceiling and the same sensor geometry but outputs Mono 8. MV-CS013-80GC keeps the color stream and 1280 × 1024 resolution while changing to Gigabit Ethernet and 89.9 fps in a 42 mm-deep housing. MV-CS016-10UC reaches 249.1 fps with 1440 × 1080 color output. Choose this model for the 1.3 MP color balance and the shallower USB camera body.

Selection and applications
Color inspection at up to 240.4 fps. Global-shutter capture of rapid mechanisms. USB acquisition of 1280 × 1024 images.
Minimum kit: MV-CS013-80UC, a C-mount lens, a USB 3.0 cable, and the camera power arrangement used by the station.
Nearby in the range: MV-CS013-80UM — Prefer it for Mono 8 output at the same 240.4 fps.; MV-CS013-80GC — Prefer it when color output is needed over Gigabit Ethernet at 89.9 fps.; MV-CS016-10UC — Prefer it for 1440 × 1080 color capture at 249.1 fps..

FAQ
Which processes can use the 240.4 fps color stream?
The stated 240.4 fps at 1280 × 1024 Bayer BG 8 supports repeated observations of fast events and dense part flow. Color-dependent classification can be combined with motion or position checks because the SS CMOS sensor uses a global shutter.
How does USB 3.0 affect selection of the camera location?
MV-CS013-80UC sends images through USB 3.0 and can also operate with USB 2.0. It is therefore selected for a host-connected layout, while MV-CS013-80GC offers the same color resolution over Gigabit Ethernet at a lower 89.9 fps ceiling.
What is the practical role of the 1/2.7-inch sensor format?
The 1/2.7-inch optical format defines the image circle that the C-mount lens must cover. Its 4 µm pixels form a 1280 × 1024 array, so focal length and working distance should map the inspected region onto that sampling grid.
When should MV-CS013-80UM be chosen instead of this model?
MV-CS013-80UM is the matching Mono 8 variant: it has the same 1280 × 1024 resolution, 240.4 fps rate, 1/2.7-inch sensor format and USB 3.0 interface. Choose it when intensity information is required without a Bayer color pattern.
What mechanical envelope is needed for MV-CS013-80UC?
The camera measures 29 mm × 29 mm × 30 mm and uses C-mount optics. Compared with the 42 mm-deep MV-CS013-80GC, the USB model reduces the body depth by 12 mm while preserving the same 1/2.7-inch sensor size.
