Fast inspection tasks and model choices
High-speed 1440 × 1080 capture is the main selection point for MV-CA016-10UC. A 1/2.9-inch Sony IMX273 CMOS sensor with 3.45 × 3.45 µm pixels uses a global shutter and reaches 249.1 fps over USB3.0. The listed exposure range extends from a 1 µs ultra-short setting to 10 sec, giving the camera a broad timing range for controlled illumination.
The frame rate and global shutter support inspection of fast-fed components, motion-phase analysis and repeated alignment checks. A 6-pin Hirose connector exposes an isolated input, an isolated output and a bidirectional line for machine signals. The 29 × 29 × 30 mm body weighs 56 g, takes a C-mount lens and can be powered from USB 3.0 or 12 V DC.
MV-CE013-80UM provides 1280 × 1024 at 148 fps, while MV-CU020-90UM increases resolution to 2048 × 1200 but tops out at 150.2 fps. MV-CS004-10UM reaches 526.5 fps by reducing the image to 720 × 540. Choose MV-CA016-10UC when 1440 × 1080 detail and 249.1 fps form the required middle ground between those resolution and speed endpoints.

Selection and applications
Fast-fed component inspection. Motion-phase analysis. Repeated alignment verification.
Minimum kit: The minimum kit is MV-CA016-10UC, a C-mount lens, a USB3.0 cable, and either USB 3.0 port power or a 12 V DC supply.
Nearby in the range: MV-CE013-80UM — Prefer it for 1280 × 1024 acquisition at up to 148 fps; MV-CU020-90UM — Prefer it when 2048 × 1200 resolution matters more than the 249.1 fps rate; MV-CS004-10UM — Prefer it when a 526.5 fps ceiling is needed at 720 × 540 resolution.

FAQ
What full-resolution rate does MV-CA016-10UC provide?
The camera records 1440 × 1080 images at up to 249.1 fps through USB3.0. Its Sony IMX273 is a CMOS global-shutter sensor, so the speed is paired with simultaneous exposure of the image area.
Which exposure settings support very short capture windows?
The standard exposure range is 15 µs to 10 sec, and an ultra-short range covers 1–14 µs. These settings allow the exposure interval to be matched to controlled light and rapid motion within the stated limits.
Can this camera receive both data and power through USB 3.0?
USB3.0 is the image interface and USB2.0 interoperability is listed. The camera also supports power from USB 3.0; alternatively, it accepts 12 V DC. Its stated consumption is 2.8 W.
How should optics be sized for the IMX273 image area?
Use a C-mount lens that covers the 1/2.9-inch sensor and resolves the 1440 × 1080 image grid. Focal length and working distance then set the object field required by the inspection.
What installation limits follow from the housing specification?
The camera measures 29 × 29 × 30 mm, weighs 56 g and is rated IP30. Operation is specified from 0 to 50 °C at 20–80% RH, while storage is specified from -30 to 70 °C.
