HIKROBOT MV-CU013-A0UM — Area Scan Cameras
1.3 MP, 1/2″ CMOS, USB3.0, Mono, 201.4 fps
MV-CU013-A0UM takes the 1.3 MP, 1/2″ global-shutter CMOS with 4.8 μm pixels onto USB3.0 and more than doubles the frame rate: 201.4 fps at full 1280 × 1024 in Mono 8. Exposure can be shortened to 5 μs, gain reaches 16 dB, and the sensor is characterized at 40 dB SNR and 53 dB dynamic range. Among the cost-effective CU cameras it is the monochrome high-speed USB option.
USB3.0 (USB2.0 compatible) both carries the image stream and can power the camera, which draws a typical 1.79 W at 5 VDC from the bus; an external 9–24 VDC input is also provided. The 6-pin P7 connector adds one opto-isolated input (Line 0), one opto-isolated output (Line 1) and a bidirectional non-isolated line (Line 2) for triggering and strobe. A user-defined ROI and horizontal or vertical image flipping are built in, and the shorter 29 × 29 × 30 mm, roughly 76 g C-mount housing is meant for tight spaces; the camera follows USB3 Vision and GenICam.

Where it is used
At 201.4 fps a mono 1.3 MP camera can follow events that GigE models in this class miss: counting small parts as they drop, watching a feeder or vibratory bowl for jams, or timing a mechanism during commissioning. The 5 μs exposure floor freezes very fast motion for reading codes on rapidly moving webs or checking needle and nozzle positions. Because it runs on USB power, it is also a practical choice for lab benches, test fixtures and portable inspection rigs where a single cable to a PC is preferred.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
