HIKROBOT MV-CB013-A0UM-C — Area Scan Cameras
1.3 MP, USB3.0, Mono, 201 fps, C-Mount

The MV-CB013-A0UM-C carries the same 1280×1024 resolution, 201 fps top speed, 40 dB SNR and 4.8 µm-pixel global-shutter sensor as the rest of the CB013 mono line, but fits a C-mount lens seat directly onto the board. At 35×35×8.6 mm and about 30 g it is thicker and heavier than the mount-free -B variant, the difference accounted for by the lens mount itself; it remains a bare board with no housing, so mounting holes and the exposed PCB still need to sit inside the customer’s own enclosure.
Data and power both travel over the USB3.0 cable (typ. 1.6 W at 5 VDC), with two bidirectional non-isolated I/O lines for trigger and output signalling. The C-mount seat lets integrators reuse standard industrial lenses already in their inventory instead of sourcing a bespoke optic, simplifying the optical design around the bare board. USB3 Vision and GenICam compliance keep it interoperable with MVS and other compliant vision software.

Where it is used
The standard C-mount and 1.3 MP/201 fps combination fit general-purpose inline inspection where integrators want to swap in existing lenses — dimensional checks, edge/position detection on fast-moving parts, or OEM equipment upgrades where a known lens library must carry over to the new board camera.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
