Nineteen-megapixel colour positioning
A 5120 × 3840 AR2020 sensor gives MV-CU200-20GC a 19.7 MP colour image at 5.9 fps over Gigabit Ethernet. The 1/1.8-inch rolling-shutter CMOS array uses 1.4 µm pixels and Bayer GR 8 output, emphasizing dense spatial sampling in a compact format. Exposure from 53 µs to 10 sec and gain from 0 dB to 48 dB provide adjustment for controlled, stationary image acquisition.
This camera fits wide-area print review, fine component-presence checks, documentation, and surface inspection where the object is stopped and cycle time allows a lower frame cadence. Its 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm C-mount body can be placed remotely over Gigabit Ethernet. Optional PoE or a 9 V DC to 24 V DC input powers the typical 2.0 W load, while three I/O lines support trigger and lighting coordination.
MV-CU200-20GM keeps the AR2020, 5120 × 3840 raster, and 5.9 fps link but outputs Mono 8 for intensity analysis. MV-CU200-20UC retains colour and the same resolution through USB 3.0 at 18 fps. MV-CU120-10GC offers 4024 × 3036 colour at 9.7 fps when higher cadence is more useful than the additional spatial samples.

Selection and applications
Fine colour print review. Stationary wide-area surface inspection. High-detail networked documentation.
Minimum kit: The minimum setup is MV-CU200-20GC, a high-resolution C-mount lens covering 1/1.8 inch, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, and optional PoE or a 9 V DC to 24 V DC supply.
Nearby in the range: MV-CU200-20GM — Prefer it for Mono 8 output at the same 5120 × 3840 and 5.9 fps.; MV-CU200-20UC — Prefer it for 18 fps colour capture over USB 3.0.; MV-CU120-10GC — Prefer it for 9.7 fps colour imaging when 4024 × 3036 is sufficient..

FAQ
What scene type matches the 5.9 fps colour operating point?
MV-CU200-20GC records 5120 × 3840 Bayer GR 8 at 5.9 fps. That balance favours stationary or indexed scenes requiring fine colour detail, such as print and surface review, rather than continuous observation of rapidly changing motion.
How demanding is the AR2020 sensor on C-mount optics?
The lens must cover the 1/1.8-inch sensor and preserve detail appropriate to 1.4 µm pixels across 5120 × 3840. Careful focus and lens resolution are therefore important. Focal length is chosen from the required field of view and working distance.
Which power options are available on MV-CU200-20GC?
The camera accepts 9 V DC to 24 V DC, and PoE is optional. Typical consumption is 2.0 W at 12 V DC. Either arrangement can be integrated with the Gigabit Ethernet connection, depending on whether power is distributed over the network or separately.
What role does the rolling shutter play at full resolution?
The AR2020 uses a rolling shutter. Keep the target stationary or indexed during the exposure and readout when geometric fidelity is important. The available 53 µs minimum exposure can limit blur, but it does not convert the acquisition to global shutter.
What protection does the compact GigE enclosure provide?
The body is rated IP30 with correct lens installation and wiring. Its operating range is 0 °C to 50 °C and 20% to 95% RH without condensation. Use additional machine protection where dust or liquid exposure exceeds that enclosure rating.
