HIKROBOT MV-CS120-60GC V5 — Area Scan Cameras
12 MP, Stacked BSI, GigE, Color, 9.9 fps

The MV-CS120-60GC V5 is the colour counterpart of the stacked BSI sensor: 2.0 μm pixels in a 1/1.56-inch format produce Bayer BG raw images at 4096 × 3024, reaching 9.9 fps at full frame over GigE. Conversion to YUV422_8, RGB 8 and BGR 8 is done on the camera, and a Mono 8 option is retained. With 38.9 dB SNR, 68.5 dB dynamic range and a 53 μs to 1.9 s exposure range in a rolling-shutter CMOS architecture, it defines the 12 MP colour GigE option in the CS series.
Relay-free 100 metre GigE cabling and PoE let the camera hang off a network switch with a single cable; the network side is also compatible with Fast Ethernet. The 6-pin P7 connector provides an alternative 9–24 VDC supply together with an opto-isolated input (Line 0), an opto-isolated output (Line 1) and a bi-directional Line 2; typical consumption is 1.5 W at 12 VDC. The 29 × 29 × 42 mm, 99.2 g C-mount body operates from 0 °C to 50 °C and follows the GigE Vision V2.0 and GenICam standards.

Where it is used
It sits in wide-area checks where colour separation is wanted together with detail: tablet colour and presence in blister packs, registration of coloured layers in printed electronics, tone and pattern defects on wood veneer and ceramic surfaces. A 4096 × 3024 colour frame is also suited to documenting large visually inspected surfaces in one capture. The 9.9 fps rate should be planned around indexed tables and slow conveyors where the product pauses for each frame.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
