Engineering Selection Recommendations
Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC FCE17B25PC280
The FCE17B25PC280 is the direct active equivalent of the obsolete FCC17B25PC280. This part maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications while offering RoHS compliance and active product status. Selection of FCE17B25PC280 requires no design modifications and provides the highest compatibility assurance for direct replacement applications.
Secondary Recommendations: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (PC200, PC210, PC240, PC250, PC290, PC2D0, PC2E0)
All FCE17B25 variants maintain identical core specifications to the main part across connector geometry, electrical ratings, and termination method. These parts differ only in internal contact configuration codes and are suitable for applications where specific contact arrangements are required. All variants are active products with RoHS compliance.
Alternative Recommendation: HARTING 09653226800 and 09653227800
The HARTING parts provide functional D-Sub 25-position plug alternatives with the following differences:
- Backset spacing: 0.409" (10.40mm) versus 0.590" (14.99mm) on the main part
- Current rating: 6.5A versus 5A
- Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 85°C
- Contact material: Copper Alloy versus Phosphor Bronze
- Dielectric material: PBT/Polyester Glass Filled versus Thermoplastic
These parts are suitable only when PCB layout accommodates the reduced backset spacing and when the extended temperature range and higher current capacity provide application benefits.
Compliance Considerations:
The FCC17B25PC280 is RoHS non-compliant. All Amphenol ICC FCE17 series substitutes are RoHS compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for new designs and production. HARTING alternatives are ROHS3 compliant.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can FCE17B25PC280 directly replace FCC17B25PC280 without PCB modifications?
A: Yes. The FCE17B25PC280 maintains identical mechanical dimensions, backset spacing (0.590" / 14.99mm), and electrical specifications. Direct substitution on existing PCBs is supported without design changes.
Q: What is the difference between the various FCE17B25 part numbers (PC200, PC210, PC240, PC250, PC290, PC2D0, PC2E0)?
A: These part numbers differ only in internal contact configuration codes. All maintain identical external dimensions, electrical ratings, and termination specifications. Selection depends on specific contact arrangement requirements for the application.
Q: Are the HARTING parts 09653226800 and 09653227800 direct replacements?
A: No. While these parts are functionally similar D-Sub 25-position plugs, they differ in backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590"), current rating (6.5A versus 5A), and contact material (Copper Alloy versus Phosphor Bronze). PCB layout modifications are required if backset spacing differs from the original design.
Q: What is the significance of the backset spacing difference?
A: Backset spacing determines the distance from the connector mounting surface to the contact plane. The main part and all Amphenol ICC FCE17 substitutes use 0.590" spacing. HARTING alternatives use 0.409" spacing. Mismatched spacing results in improper mating depth and contact engagement. PCB hole positioning must accommodate the specified spacing.
Q: Why is RoHS compliance important for this substitution?
A: The original FCC17B25PC280 is RoHS non-compliant. All Amphenol ICC FCE17 series substitutes are RoHS compliant, meeting EU Directive 2011/65/EU and equivalent regulations. New designs and production runs should specify RoHS-compliant alternatives to ensure regulatory compliance and market acceptance.
Q: Can I use the HARTING parts if my application requires the extended temperature range (-55°C to 125°C)?
A: The HARTING parts support -55°C to 125°C operation, exceeding the -40°C to 85°C range of the main part and Amphenol ICC substitutes. However, backset spacing and contact material differences must be evaluated for compatibility with your specific application requirements and PCB design.
Q: What is the contact finish thickness specification, and why does it matter?
A: The main part and all Amphenol ICC FCE17 substitutes specify 15.0µin (0.38µm) gold contact finish thickness. This thickness ensures reliable electrical contact and corrosion resistance over the connector's operational life. HARTING parts do not specify contact finish thickness, which may affect long-term reliability in corrosive environments.
Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging format?
A: Amphenol ICC FCE17 series parts are available in standard packaging. HARTING parts are supplied in bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements with your procurement process before finalizing part selection.
Q: What inventory levels are available for each substitute part?
A: Current inventory levels are: FCE17B25PC280 (776 pcs), FCE17B25PC200 (1114 pcs), FCE17B25PC210 (817 pcs), FCE17B25PC240 (623 pcs), FCE17B25PC250 (1048 pcs), FCE17B25PC290 (1030 pcs), FCE17B25PC2D0 (820 pcs), FCE17B25PC2E0 (822 pcs), 09653226800 (882 pcs), 09653227800 (870 pcs). Inventory levels are subject to change; confirm availability with your supplier.
