HIKROBOT MV-CB020-60UM-S — Area Scan Cameras
2 MP, Stacked BSI, USB3.0, Mono, M12-mount, 179.9 fps

The MV-CB020-60UM-S is the 2 MP mono, M12-mount model in the CB Series. Its global-shutter Stacked BSI sensor reaches 179.9 fps at 1624 × 1240, with a 44.1 dB SNR — the highest signal-to-noise ratio in this line-up. Unlike its bare-board sibling, it carries an M12 lens socket, but still has no housing of its own, and this 30 g PCB must be mounted into the customer’s own enclosure.
USB 3.0 carries both power (typ. 1.5 W @ 5 VDC) and data, and is backward-compatible with USB 2.0. Two bi-directional non-isolated I/O lines support high-speed triggering scenarios. The M12 lens offers a compact optical solution, while the global shutter guarantees distortion-free capture of moving objects even at 179.9 fps; USB3 Vision/GenICam compliance ensures direct recognition by the MVS client.

Where it is used
The combination of 179.9 fps, global shutter, and a high 44.1 dB SNR suits mono applications that need fast, low-noise imaging: presence and position checks on fast lines, triggered inspection in vibration-prone or low-light conditions, and high-speed counting systems. The compact M12 lens lets this performance be built into small-scale devices.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
