Tasks and place in the range

Twelve-megapixel colour frames at 31 fps place this model near the detail end of the USB branch. MV-CT0CU0120/G combines a Stacked BSI CMOS sensor, global shutter, 4096 × 3000 px colour output and 31 fps. Its 3.45 × 3.45 µm pixels occupy a 1.1-inch sensor, while USB 3.0 carries the image stream through the Type-C interface.

The global shutter and 31 fps ceiling support large-field print inspection, colour comparison and dense assembly review, 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).

Three nearby configurations frame its position in the series. MV-CT0CG0120/G uses Gigabit Ethernet for 4096 × 3000 px colour capture at 9.9 fps. MV-CT0MG0120/G uses Gigabit Ethernet for 4096 × 3000 px monochrome capture at 9.9 fps. MV-CT0CU0089/G provides 4096 × 2160 px at 42 fps with a global-shutter colour path over USB 3.0. Retain MV-CT0CU0120/G when Color output, Type-C USB 3.0 and USB power are needed together at 31 fps.

Specifications

Selection and applications

Colour feature capture at 4096 × 3000 px. Triggered colour inspection with a global shutter. Full-frame acquisition up to 31 fps.

Minimum kit: Use MV-CT0CU0120/G with a C-mount lens, a USB 3.0 cable to the Type-C interface, and either USB bus power or 9 V DC to 24 V DC power through the 8-pin M8 A-Code connection.

Nearby in the range: MV-CT0CG0120/G — Prefer it for Gigabit Ethernet transport at 4096 × 3000 px and 9.9 fps.; MV-CT0MG0120/G — Prefer it for Mono output over Gigabit Ethernet at 4096 × 3000 px and 9.9 fps.; MV-CT0CU0089/G — Prefer it for 4096 × 2160 px, 42 fps and global-shutter colour capture..

FAQ

Which suggested lenses cover the sensor in MV-CT0CU0120/G?

For MV-CT0CU0120/G, the C-mount matches are MVL-KF3524M-25MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP. Their image circles cover the 1.1-inch sensor, and the 25 MP lens class is above the camera’s 4096 × 3000 px matrix. Both therefore match the stated mount, sensor coverage and resolution requirement.

How should power and cabling be arranged for MV-CT0CU0120/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-CT0CU0120/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 31 fps at 4096 × 3000 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-CT0CU0120/G?

The CMOS sensor uses a global shutter, so all pixels share the exposure timing for moving-part capture. Full-frame rate is 31 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-CT0CU0120/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-CT0CU0120/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.
