Tasks and position in the range
Resolution and motion control meet at 2048 × 1536 px in MV-CT0MU0032/G. The monochrome Stacked BSI CMOS sensor uses a global shutter and 3.45 × 3.45 µm pixels across a 1/1.8 in format. It delivers 104.8 fps in Mono 8 over USB 3.0, while high-full-well-capacity and high-sensitivity settings provide two documented gain and exposure ranges.
The camera fits inspection of moving assemblies, printed features and part edges where a 3.2 MP image is needed at triple-digit frame rate. Global exposure keeps moving geometry coherent, and Trigger Width or Trigger Controlled operation can align each frame with a machine event. The 5 µs lower exposure limit in high-sensitivity operation supports brief illumination windows; C-mount optics keep the imaging chain compact.
MV-CT0MU0020/G sacrifices image size for 180.1 fps at 1624 × 1240 px, while MV-CT0MU0050/G records 2448 × 2048 px at 80 fps. MV-CT0MU0032/G sits between them for applications that need 2048 × 1536 px without dropping below 100 fps. MV-CT1MG0032/G supplies the same monochrome resolution over Gigabit Ethernet with PoE and IP67, but its listed rate is 77.5 fps with lossless compression.

FAQ
What C-mount optics are suggested for MV-CT0MU0032/G?
MVL-KF1628M-12MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP are both listed. Their image circles cover the 1/1.8 in sensor, and their 12 MP and 25 MP lens classes are above the 2048 × 1536 px camera resolution. Selection between them can therefore be made around the required field of view.
What host connection and power options does MV-CT0MU0032/G use?
A Type-C interface carries USB 3.0 data and is compatible with USB 2.0. The camera can be powered over USB, drawing a typical 1.6 W at 5 V DC. Its 8-pin M8 A-Code connector also accepts 9 V DC to 24 V DC and provides the camera's discrete input and output lines.
Which exposure setting of MV-CT0MU0032/G suits short events?
High-sensitivity operation provides exposure from 5 µs to 10 sec with gain from 0 dB to 24 dB. High-full-well-capacity operation spans 30 µs to 10 sec and 0 dB to 12.8 dB. The global shutter and 104.8 fps full-frame rate support event capture without rolling-shutter skew.
Can MV-CT0MU0032/G reduce spatial data before transfer?
Both binning and decimation support 1 × 1, 2 × 2 and 4 × 4 settings. Monochrome formats include Mono 8, 10, 10Packed, 12 and 12Packed. These sensor-side choices allow resolution and pixel-depth settings to be matched to processing load before the image crosses USB.
What enclosure limits apply to MV-CT0MU0032/G in protected installations?
The 29 mm × 29 mm × 30 mm housing is rated IP40 with the lens and wiring correctly installed. Working temperature extends from –30 °C to 60 °C, while humidity may range from 20% RH to 95% RH without condensation. Approximate camera mass is 72 g.
