Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the FCC17B25SM2D0 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Connector style (D-Sub)
• Connector type (Receptacle, Female Sockets)
• Number of positions (25)
• Number of rows (2)
• Shell size and layout (3 / DB, B)
• Mounting type (Free Hanging, In-Line)
• Flange feature (Housing/Shell, Unthreaded)

Electrical Compatibility:

• Termination method (Solder Cup)
• Current rating (5A)
• Voltage rating (200V)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C)
• Contact type (Signal)

Material & Environmental Specifications:

• Shell material and finish (Steel, Tin Plated)
• Contact finish (Gold, 15.0µin / 0.38µm)
• Contact material (Phosphor Bronze)
• Dielectric material (Thermoplastic)
• Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
• Moisture sensitivity level (1 / Unlimited)

Substitute parts must match all parameters listed above. Variations in product status, series designation, or RoHS compliance do not affect functional substitutability when all electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The FCE17B25SM2D0 is a direct functional equivalent to the FCC17B25SM2D0 across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. Both connectors share identical specifications for connector configuration, termination method, current and voltage ratings, operating temperature range, shell materials, contact finishes, and flammability ratings.

The primary distinction between these parts is product lifecycle status: the FCC17B25SM2D0 is classified as obsolete, while the FCE17B25SM2D0 is active. Additionally, the FCE17B25SM2D0 carries RoHS compliance certification, whereas the FCC17B25SM2D0 does not. The dielectric material in the FCE17B25SM2D0 is specified as glass-filled thermoplastic, compared to standard thermoplastic in the main part; this enhancement does not compromise compatibility.

For new designs or ongoing procurement where the FCC17B25SM2D0 is no longer available, the FCE17B25SM2D0 provides full functional substitution. The active product status and RoHS compliance of the FCE17B25SM2D0 make it the preferred selection for applications requiring regulatory compliance or long-term supply chain stability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17B25SM2D0 be used as a direct replacement for the FCC17B25SM2D0 in existing assemblies?

A: Yes. The FCE17B25SM2D0 matches all electrical and mechanical specifications of the FCC17B25SM2D0, including connector type, pin count, shell size, termination method, current and voltage ratings, and operating temperature range. Physical and electrical compatibility is confirmed.

Q: What is the difference between the dielectric materials in these two connectors?

A: The FCC17B25SM2D0 uses standard thermoplastic dielectric material, while the FCE17B25SM2D0 uses glass-filled thermoplastic. Glass-filled thermoplastic provides enhanced mechanical and thermal properties while maintaining electrical performance. This difference does not affect substitutability.

Q: Why is the voltage rating not specified for the FCE17B25SM2D0?

A: The voltage rating specification is not provided in the available technical data for the FCE17B25SM2D0. However, both connectors are rated for identical current (5A) and operating temperature (-40°C ~ 85°C), and share all other electrical and material specifications. For applications requiring confirmation of voltage rating, consult the manufacturer's detailed datasheet.

Q: Does the RoHS compliance difference affect compatibility?

A: No. RoHS compliance is a regulatory and environmental classification that does not affect the electrical or mechanical function of the connector. The FCE17B25SM2D0's RoHS compliance is an advantage for applications subject to regulatory requirements, but does not impact its ability to function as a substitute.

Q: Are there any packaging or inventory considerations when switching to the FCE17B25SM2D0?

A: Both connectors are supplied in identical packaging configurations. The FCE17B25SM2D0 has 1045 pieces in stock, compared to 1031 pieces for the FCC17B25SM2D0. No packaging modifications are required for substitution.

Q: Can these connectors be used interchangeably in mating applications?

A: Yes. Both connectors are 25-position D-Sub receptacles with identical shell size (3 / DB, B), pin configuration, and mounting type. They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable with standard D-Sub plug connectors designed for this shell size.
