Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FCC17B25PB680 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector style (D-Sub), connector type (Plug, Male Pins), number of positions (25), number of rows (2), shell size (3/DB/B), mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle), termination method (Solder), current rating (5A), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), shell material (Steel, Tin Plated), contact finish (Gold), material flammability rating (UL94 V-0), backset spacing (0.405"/10.29mm), and contact material (Phosphor Bronze).

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (Active Status): Parts FCE17B25PB680, FCE17B25PB600, FCE17B25PB610, FCE17B25PB640, FCE17B25PB650, FCE17B25PB690, FCE17B25PB6D0, and FCE17B25PB6E0 maintain all critical electrical and mechanical parameters while offering RoHS compliance and active product status. These parts differ only in dielectric material composition (Thermoplastic, Glass Filled) and lack specified voltage rating in documentation.

HARTING Series (Active Status): Parts 09653226800 and 09653227800 provide functional equivalence with identical connector geometry, position count, and mounting configuration. These alternatives feature higher current rating (6.5A), extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), and ROHS3 compliance. Backset spacing differs slightly (0.409" vs. 0.405"), and contact material is Copper Alloy rather than Phosphor Bronze.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series

The FCE17B25PB680, FCE17B25PB600, FCE17B25PB610, FCE17B25PB640, FCE17B25PB650, FCE17B25PB690, FCE17B25PB6D0, and FCE17B25PB6E0 connectors are the preferred substitutes for the obsolete FCC17B25PB680. These parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and RoHS compliance. All eight variants preserve the critical parameters: 25-position D-Sub plug configuration, right-angle through-hole solder termination, 5A current rating, -40°C to 85°C operating temperature, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and 0.405" backset spacing. The FCE17 series represents a direct product line evolution from the FCC17 series, ensuring design compatibility and long-term availability.

Secondary Recommendation: HARTING 09653226800 and 09653227800

The HARTING alternatives provide functional equivalence with enhanced performance characteristics. These connectors maintain the 25-position D-Sub plug geometry, right-angle through-hole solder termination, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The HARTING parts offer higher current capacity (6.5A versus 5A) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 85°C), supporting broader application environments. Backset spacing differs marginally (0.409" versus 0.405"), and contact material is Copper Alloy rather than Phosphor Bronze. These parts carry ROHS3 compliance and active product status. Selection of HARTING alternatives is appropriate when enhanced thermal performance or higher current capacity is required.

Compliance Considerations

The FCC17B25PB680 is RoHS non-compliant. All recommended substitutes (Amphenol ICC FCE17 series and HARTING parts) are RoHS compliant or ROHS3 compliant, supporting regulatory requirements for new designs and procurement in regulated markets.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FCE17B25PB680 directly replace FCC17B25PB680 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The FCE17B25PB680 maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters: 25-position D-Sub plug configuration, right-angle solder termination, 5A current rating, -40°C to 85°C operating temperature, 0.405" backset spacing, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and identical shell size (3/DB/B). The primary differences are active product status and RoHS compliance. No design modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the eight FCE17 variants?

A: The FCE17B25PB600, FCE17B25PB610, FCE17B25PB640, FCE17B25PB650, FCE17B25PB690, FCE17B25PB6D0, and FCE17B25PB6E0 variants differ only in the final three characters of the part number, which designate internal contact or configuration variations not specified in the provided documentation. All eight parts share identical external electrical and mechanical specifications, mounting characteristics, and compliance certifications. Selection among variants depends on specific internal contact requirements defined by application circuit design.

Q: Are HARTING parts fully compatible with FCC17B25PB680?

A: HARTING parts 09653226800 and 09653227800 provide functional equivalence with minor parameter variations. Backset spacing differs slightly (0.409" versus 0.405"), and contact material is Copper Alloy rather than Phosphor Bronze. These differences do not affect mechanical fit or electrical performance in standard D-Sub applications. HARTING parts offer enhanced current capacity (6.5A) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C), making them suitable for demanding environments. Compatibility should be confirmed for applications with tight spacing tolerances or specific contact material requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the 0.004" backset spacing difference between Amphenol and HARTING parts?

A: Backset spacing (0.405" for Amphenol versus 0.409" for HARTING) defines the distance from the connector mounting surface to the contact plane. The 0.004" difference is within typical PCB design tolerances and does not affect standard D-Sub mating performance. However, applications with tightly constrained board layouts or custom backplane designs should verify compatibility with mechanical drawings before substitution.

Q: Why is RoHS compliance important for this connector?

A: RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance is a regulatory requirement in many markets, particularly for products sold in the European Union and to regulated industries. The FCC17B25PB680 is RoHS non-compliant, while all recommended substitutes are RoHS compliant or ROHS3 compliant. New designs and procurement should specify RoHS-compliant alternatives to ensure regulatory compliance and market access.

Q: Can I use HARTING parts in applications requiring Phosphor Bronze contacts?

A: HARTING parts feature Copper Alloy contacts rather than Phosphor Bronze. While both materials provide adequate electrical conductivity and contact reliability in standard signal applications, applications with specific contact material requirements (such as corrosion resistance in harsh environments or compatibility with specialized plating systems) should specify Amphenol FCE17 series parts with Phosphor Bronze contacts.

Q: What inventory levels are available for these substitute parts?

A: Current inventory levels are: FCE17B25PB680 (828 pcs), FCE17B25PB600 (950 pcs), FCE17B25PB610 (1108 pcs), FCE17B25PB640 (855 pcs), FCE17B25PB650 (814 pcs), FCE17B25PB690 (871 pcs), FCE17B25PB6D0 (729 pcs), FCE17B25PB6E0 (752 pcs), 09653226800 (882 pcs), and 09653227800 (870 pcs). Inventory levels are subject to change; current availability should be confirmed at time of procurement.

Q: Are there any performance differences between the Amphenol FCE17 variants and the original FCC17B25PB680?

A: The FCE17 series maintains identical electrical performance specifications. The primary differences are product status (active versus obsolete), RoHS compliance, and dielectric material composition (Thermoplastic, Glass Filled versus Thermoplastic). Glass-filled dielectric materials provide enhanced mechanical strength and thermal stability. No functional performance differences exist in standard signal applications.
