Tasks and place in the range
A balance of two-megapixel detail and conveyor-rate capture sets the engineering role. The Stacked BSI CMOS device in MV-CT0CG0020/G outputs 1624 × 1240 px in colour at 60.3 fps. A global shutter, 3.45 × 3.45 µm pixel pitch and 1/2.53-inch sensor format define the optical side; Gigabit Ethernet on the RJ45 connector defines the data side.
The global shutter and 60.3 fps ceiling support feature location, colour sorting and assembly-presence checks at a paced station, with the full field exposed on the same timing basis. Exposure extends through 23 µs to 10 s. Trigger Width and Trigger Controlled modes allow exposure to follow external timing. The 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm (1.1" × 1.1" × 1.7") body accepts C-mount optics. IP40 protection applies with proper lens installation and wiring, and the working range is –30 °C to 60 °C (–22 °F to 140 °F).
Three nearby configurations frame its position in the series. MV-CT0MG0020/G keeps 1624 × 1240 px and 60.3 fps but changes the output to Mono. MV-CT0CU0020/G uses USB 3.0 for 1624 × 1240 px colour capture at 180.1 fps. MV-CT0CG0016/G provides 1440 × 1080 px at 78.2 fps with a global-shutter colour path over Gigabit Ethernet. Retain MV-CT0CG0020/G when Color output, Gigabit Ethernet and PoE are needed together at 60.3 fps.

Selection and applications
Colour feature capture at 1624 × 1240 px. Triggered colour inspection with a global shutter. Full-frame acquisition up to 60.3 fps.
| Lenses | MVL-KF1628M-12MP, MVL-KF5024M-25MP |
|---|
Minimum kit: Use MV-CT0CG0020/G with a C-mount lens, a Gigabit Ethernet cable to the RJ45 connector, and either PoE or 9 V DC to 24 V DC power through the 8-pin M8 A-Code connection.
Nearby in the range: MV-CT0MG0020/G — Prefer it for Mono output at the same 1624 × 1240 px and 60.3 fps; MV-CT0CU0020/G — Prefer it for USB 3.0 transport at 1624 × 1240 px and 180.1 fps; MV-CT0CG0016/G — Prefer it for 1440 × 1080 px, 78.2 fps and global-shutter colour capture.

FAQ
Which suggested lenses cover the sensor in MV-CT0CG0020/G?
For MV-CT0CG0020/G, the C-mount matches are MVL-KF1628M-12MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP. Their image circles cover the 1/2.53-inch sensor, and the 12 MP and 25 MP lens classes are above the camera’s 1624 × 1240 px matrix. Both therefore match the stated mount, sensor coverage and resolution requirement.
How should power and cabling be arranged for MV-CT0CG0020/G?
The camera accepts 9 V DC to 24 V DC and also supports PoE. The RJ45 connector carries Gigabit Ethernet; the 8-pin M8 A-Code connection provides DC power and I/O when separate power is used. Consumption is typically 1.4 W at 12 V DC.
What data interface and peak acquisition rate does MV-CT0CG0020/G provide?
Data uses Gigabit Ethernet at 1 Gbit/s through RJ45 and remains compatible with Fast Ethernet. The stated full-frame ceiling is 60.3 fps at 1624 × 1240 Bayer GB 8. MVS and software meeting the GigE Vision protocol are supported.
How do shutter timing and exposure affect motion work with MV-CT0CG0020/G?
The CMOS sensor uses a global shutter, so all pixels share the exposure timing for moving-part capture. Full-frame rate is 60.3 fps, and the exposure range is 23 µs to 10 s. Trigger Width and Trigger Controlled operation are available.
Which image-reduction and I/O functions are available on MV-CT0CG0020/G?
Binning and decimation each support 1 × 1, 2 × 2 and 4 × 4 operation. Horizontal and vertical reverse-image output is available. The 8-pin M8 A-Code I/O provides one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bidirectional non-isolated line for sequencing.
What enclosure conditions and temperature range apply to MV-CT0CG0020/G?
Operation is rated from –30 °C to 60 °C (–22 °F to 140 °F), with 20% RH to 95% RH (no condensation). The housing is 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm (1.1" × 1.1" × 1.7") and weighs approximately 116 g (0.3 lb.). Its IP40 rating applies under proper lens installation and wiring, so the station must provide conditions consistent with that protection level.
