Where this model fits
Wide 4096 × 2160 colour acquisition at 42 fps distinguishes this compact USB unit. MV-CT0CU0089/G places 4096 × 2160 px of colour data behind a global-shutter Stacked BSI CMOS sensor. It reaches 42 fps, uses 3.45 × 3.45 µm pixels across a 1-inch format, and sends frames over USB 3.0 via the Type-C interface.
The global shutter and 42 fps ceiling support wide-frame label inspection, colour-region checks and assembly completeness, with the full field exposed on the same timing basis. Exposure extends through 20 µs to 10 s. Trigger Width and Trigger Controlled modes allow exposure to follow external timing. The 29 mm × 29 mm × 30 mm (1.1" × 1.1" × 1.2") body accepts C-mount optics. IP40 protection applies with proper lens installation and wiring, and the working range is –30 °C to 60 °C (–22 °F to 140 °F).
The surrounding CT models make the selection trade clear. MV-CT0CG0089/G uses Gigabit Ethernet for 4096 × 2160 px colour capture at 13.9 fps. MV-CT0MG0089/G uses Gigabit Ethernet for 4096 × 2160 px monochrome capture at 13.9 fps. MV-CT0CU0120/G provides 4096 × 3000 px at 31 fps with a global-shutter colour path over USB 3.0. Retain MV-CT0CU0089/G when Color output, Type-C USB 3.0 and USB power are needed together at 42 fps.

FAQ
Which suggested lenses cover the sensor in MV-CT0CU0089/G?
For MV-CT0CU0089/G, the C-mount matches are MVL-KF1628M-12MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP. Their image circles cover the 1-inch sensor, and the 12 MP and 25 MP lens classes are above the camera’s 4096 × 2160 px matrix. Both therefore match the stated mount, sensor coverage and resolution requirement.
How should power and cabling be arranged for MV-CT0CU0089/G?
The Type-C USB 3.0 connection supports bus power, while the camera also accepts 9 V DC to 24 V DC. The 8-pin M8 A-Code connection provides power and I/O for externally powered wiring. Consumption is typically 2 W at 5 V DC (USB 3.0 provides power supply).
What data interface and peak acquisition rate does MV-CT0CU0089/G provide?
Data uses USB 3.0 through the Type-C interface and is compatible with USB 2.0. The stated full-frame ceiling is 42 fps at 4096 × 2160 Bayer GB 8. MVS and software meeting the USB3 Vision protocol are supported for acquisition.
How do shutter timing and exposure affect motion work with MV-CT0CU0089/G?
The CMOS sensor uses a global shutter, so all pixels share the exposure timing for moving-part capture. Full-frame rate is 42 fps, and the exposure range is 20 µs to 10 s. Trigger Width and Trigger Controlled operation are available.
Which image-reduction and I/O functions are available on MV-CT0CU0089/G?
Binning and decimation each support 1 × 1, 2 × 2 and 4 × 4 operation. Horizontal and vertical reverse-image output is available. The 8-pin M8 A-Code I/O provides one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bidirectional non-isolated line for sequencing.
What enclosure conditions and temperature range apply to MV-CT0CU0089/G?
Operation is rated from –30 °C to 60 °C (–22 °F to 140 °F), with 20% RH to 95% RH (no condensation). The housing is 29 mm × 29 mm × 30 mm (1.1" × 1.1" × 1.2") and weighs approximately 72 g (0.2 lb.). Its IP40 rating applies under proper lens installation and wiring, so the station must provide conditions consistent with that protection level.
