HIKROBOT MV-CH120-10UC(EoL) — Area Scan Cameras
12 MP, Sony IMX304, USB3.0, Color, 23.1 fps
The 12 MP color option on the USB3.0 side of the CH family, the MV-CH120-10UC(EoL) streams the Bayer GB variant of the Sony® IMX304 sensor at 4096 × 3000 and 23.1 fps, with YUV422 and RGB/BGR 8 outputs generated in-camera. The 1.1-inch global-shutter sensor keeps shadow and highlight detail together in color scenes thanks to 40.2 dB SNR and 72.2 dB dynamic range. HIKROBOT has marked this version as in delisting preparation.
Power can come over USB3.0 (typically 3.5 W at 5 VDC) or from the 12 VDC input; the interface is USB2.0 backward compatible and M2 screw holes lock the cable in place. Gain, exposure, LUT and Gamma are adjusted automatically or manually, and triggering runs in hardware, software or free-run mode. The 6-pin Hirose connector provides opto-isolated input/output and a bi-directional line; the 44 × 29 × 59 mm, 100 g body accepts C-mount lenses and is USB3 Vision / GenICam compliant.

- Compatible with USB3 Vision Protocol, GenICam Standard, and the third-party software based on these protocol and standard.
Where it is used
It suits work where color and high resolution meet at moderate speed: multi-color register control in packaging and booklet printing, color-coded component and cable verification in electronics assembly, and tint deviation detection on ceramic and coated surfaces. Running on a single USB cable simplifies installation in small inspection cells, and it can also be considered as a spare for lines already built with this model.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
