Features (Board Lock, Filter)

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Category 1: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (Active Status) These parts represent direct parametric equivalents manufactured by the same supplier. The FCE17 series shares identical mechanical and electrical specifications with the FCC17A15SC690, with the primary distinction being active product status and RoHS compliance. Multiple variants (FCE17A15SC600, FCE17A15SC610, FCE17A15SC640, FCE17A15SC650, FCE17A15SC680, FCE17A15SC6D0, FCE17A15SC6E0) are available, differing only in contact finish specifications not detailed in the primary parameter set.

Category 2: HARTING Series (Alternative Manufacturer) These parts provide functional equivalence with variations in specific parameters. The HARTING 09662127600 and 09662526616 connectors maintain the core D-Sub receptacle configuration with 15 positions and 2-row layout, but differ in backset spacing (0.409" vs. 0.590"), current rating (6.5A vs. 5A), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C vs. -40°C ~ 85°C), contact form (Stamped vs. Machined), and contact material (Copper Alloy vs. Phosphor Bronze).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series

The FCE17A15SC690, FCE17A15SC600, FCE17A15SC610, FCE17A15SC640, FCE17A15SC650, FCE17A15SC680, FCE17A15SC6D0, and FCE17A15SC6E0 connectors are direct parametric equivalents to the FCC17A15SC690. These parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications, including 15-position configuration, 2-row layout, through-hole right-angle mounting, solder termination, 5A current rating, and operating temperature range of -40°C ~ 85°C.

The primary advantage of the FCE17 series is active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. Additionally, all FCE17 variants are RoHS Compliant, addressing regulatory requirements for new designs and production environments subject to RoHS directives.

Secondary Recommendation: HARTING 09662127600 and 09662526616

The HARTING connectors provide functional equivalence as 15-position D-Sub receptacles with 2-row configuration and through-hole right-angle solder termination. These parts are suitable for applications where the following parameter variations are acceptable:

Backset spacing of 0.409" (10.40mm) instead of 0.590" (14.99mm)
Current rating of 6.5A instead of 5A
Operating temperature range of -55°C ~ 125°C instead of -40°C ~ 85°C
Copper Alloy contact material instead of Phosphor Bronze
Stamped contact form instead of machined

The HARTING parts are ROHS3 Compliant and offer extended temperature performance. The 09662526616 variant includes Board Lock feature, matching the FCC17A15SC690 specification.

Selection Criteria:

For direct replacement in existing designs with no parameter tolerance, select from the Amphenol ICC FCE17 series. For new designs or applications requiring extended temperature performance or higher current capacity, the HARTING alternatives are suitable if mechanical and electrical parameter variations are compatible with system requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17A15SC690 be used as a direct replacement for the FCC17A15SC690?

A: Yes. The FCE17A15SC690 is a direct parametric equivalent. Both connectors share identical specifications for connector type, position count, row configuration, shell size, mounting type, termination method, current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature range, and flammability rating. The primary difference is product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and RoHS compliance (Compliant vs. non-compliant).

Q: What is the difference between the various FCE17A15SC6XX variants?

A: The FCE17A15SC600, FCE17A15SC610, FCE17A15SC640, FCE17A15SC650, FCE17A15SC680, FCE17A15SC6D0, and FCE17A15SC6E0 variants differ in contact finish specifications not detailed in the primary parameter set. All variants maintain identical mechanical and electrical performance characteristics, including 15-position configuration, 5A current rating, and -40°C ~ 85°C operating temperature range.

Q: Can HARTING connectors be used as replacements for the FCC17A15SC690?

A: HARTING connectors provide functional equivalence as 15-position D-Sub receptacles with 2-row configuration and solder termination. However, they differ in backset spacing (0.409" vs. 0.590"), current rating (6.5A vs. 5A), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C vs. -40°C ~ 85°C), and contact material (Copper Alloy vs. Phosphor Bronze). Substitution is acceptable only if these parameter variations are compatible with system design requirements.

Q: What is backset spacing and why does it matter?

A: Backset spacing is the distance from the rear of the connector shell to the solder cup termination points. The FCC17A15SC690 specifies 0.590" (14.99mm), while HARTING alternatives specify 0.409" (10.40mm). This dimension is critical for printed circuit board layout and component placement. Connectors with different backset spacing may not fit existing PCB designs without modification.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series connectors are RoHS Compliant. The HARTING 09662127600 and 09662526616 are ROHS3 Compliant. The original FCC17A15SC690 is RoHS non-compliant. RoHS compliance status should be verified against specific regulatory requirements for your application and market.

Q: What is the difference between machined and stamped contact forms?

A: The FCC17A15SC690 uses machined contacts, while HARTING alternatives use stamped contacts. Machined contacts are individually formed from solid material, typically offering higher precision and durability. Stamped contacts are formed from sheet material, generally providing cost efficiency. Both contact forms are suitable for signal applications at the specified current ratings.

Q: Can I use a connector with a higher current rating as a substitute?

A: Yes, if all other parameters are compatible. The HARTING connectors are rated for 6.5A compared to the FCC17A15SC690's 5A rating. A higher current rating provides additional margin and is acceptable for direct substitution. However, backset spacing and other mechanical parameters must still be verified for PCB compatibility.

Q: What does UL94 V-0 flammability rating mean?

A: UL94 V-0 is a material flammability classification indicating that the connector housing material will not propagate flame and will self-extinguish within specified time limits when exposed to a direct flame source. All substitute parts listed maintain this UL94 V-0 rating, ensuring equivalent fire safety performance.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for selecting a substitute part?

A: Yes. Current inventory levels are: FCC17A15SC690 (872 pcs), FCE17A15SC690 (1083 pcs), FCE17A15SC600 (778 pcs), FCE17A15SC610 (879 pcs), FCE17A15SC640 (1068 pcs), FCE17A15SC650 (949 pcs), FCE17A15SC680 (921 pcs), FCE17A15SC6D0 (697 pcs), FCE17A15SC6E0 (746 pcs), 09662127600 (875 pcs), and 09662526616 (1095 pcs). Inventory levels should be confirmed with suppliers for production planning purposes.
