HIKROBOT MV-CS120-60UM V5 — Area Scan Cameras
12 MP, Stacked BSI, USB3.0, Mono, 26.8 fps

The USB 3.0 MV-CS120-60UM V5 streams the 4096 × 3024 monochrome frame of its 1/1.56-inch stacked BSI CMOS sensor to the host at 26.8 fps. The 2.0 μm pixel, rolling-shutter readout, 0–24 dB gain and exposure adjustable from 22 μs to 1.4 seconds combine a higher frame rate with a shorter minimum exposure than the GigE version of the same sensor. It is the native USB3 choice for 12 MP in the CS series small and medium resolution family.
Data and power arrive over a single USB 3.0 cable, and the typical 1.5 W draw at 5 VDC removes the need for a separate supply; USB 2.0 compatibility is retained. For external 9–24 VDC power and digital I/O, the 6-pin P7 connector carries an opto-isolated input (Line 0), an opto-isolated output (Line 1) and a bi-directional Line 2. The 29 × 29 × 30 mm, roughly 80 g body has mounting holes on four faces; the camera works from –30 °C to 60 °C, complies with USB3 Vision and GenICam, and lets gain, exposure, LUT and Gamma be set automatically or manually.

Where it is used
A 12 MP monochrome stream at 26.8 fps earns its place in short-cycle benchtop and in-cell inspection: alignment and defect checks on semiconductor and electronic parts, measurement of precision moulded and cut components, surface analysis of medical device parts. The 22 μs minimum exposure allows short, strobe-free exposures under strong lighting. The wide –30 °C to 60 °C working range also opens USB-connected installations in unconditioned enclosures.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
