HIKROBOT MV-CH120-90Y1M-NH — Area Scan Cameras
12 MP, Gpixel GMAX3412, 1-link CXP-12, Mono, 93.9 fps

The MV-CH120-90Y1M-NH is a monochrome 12 MP model in the CoaXPress branch of the CH series using a Gpixel GMAX3412 global shutter CMOS sensor; with 3.4 μm × 3.4 μm pixels and 4096 × 3072 resolution it produces 93.9 fps in Mono 8 over a single CXP-12 link. A minimum exposure of 6 μs is intended to suppress blur on fast-moving objects; SNR is 39 dB, dynamic range 59.7 dB and gain 0 dB to 6.1 dB. This variant is fanless but ships with a heat sink, which raises the upper working temperature to 50 °C.
Data travels over a CoaXPress interface with a Micro-BNC connector; PoCXP support lets the camera be powered over the same coaxial line, with a 12 VDC to 24 VDC input as the alternative (typically 5 W at 12 VDC). For triggering the 6-pin P7 connector provides an opto-isolated input (Line 0), an opto-isolated output (Line 1) and a bi-directional non-isolated line (Line 2), and Off, Once and Continuous exposure modes are supported. With the heat sink the body measures 29 mm × 85 mm × 42 mm and weighs about 170 g (29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm and 90 g without it); it takes C-mount lenses, is rated IP40 and works with third-party software based on the CoaXPress and GenICam standards.

Where it is used
Roughly 94 frames per second of 12 MP monochrome imaging is a capacity designed for catching surface defects on fast-moving lines and scratches or stains in display-glass and panel inspection. The 6 μs exposure delivers sharp images of parts in motion in high-speed conveying and pick-and-place applications. The heat sink targets continuous operation in production environments where enclosure temperatures exceed 40 °C and a fan is unwanted.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
