Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: FCE17C37PA69B (Amphenol ICC)

The FCE17C37PA69B is the recommended primary substitute for the obsolete FCC17C37PA69B. This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications including 37-position configuration, 5A current rating, 200V voltage rating, and -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range. The FCE17C37PA69B is an active product with RoHS compliance status, providing long-term availability and regulatory alignment. The flange feature differs (Housing/Shell vs. Board Side), requiring mechanical design verification for mounting compatibility.

Secondary Substitutes: HARTING 09654226800, 09654227800, 09654236800, 09654236801, 09654236802, 09654626810, 09654626815, 09654626816, 09654627810

HARTING D-Sub 37-position plug connectors provide functional substitution with the following considerations:

All HARTING substitutes are active products with ROHS3 compliance
Current rating is increased to 6.5A, exceeding the 5A requirement
Operating temperature range extends to -55°C to 125°C, encompassing the original -40°C to 85°C specification
Backset spacing differs at 0.409" (10.40mm) compared to the original 0.318" (8.08mm), requiring PCB layout verification
Contact form is stamped rather than machined
Flange feature variations include unthreaded, M3, and 4-40 options; selection depends on mounting requirements
Board lock feature is present on parts 09654626810, 09654626815, 09654626816, and 09654627810

Selection among HARTING variants depends on specific flange feature and board lock requirements for the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17C37PA69B directly replace the FCC17C37PA69B without design changes?

A: The FCE17C37PA69B maintains identical electrical specifications and connector pin configuration. The primary difference is the flange feature design (Housing/Shell vs. Board Side). Mechanical compatibility requires verification of mounting hole patterns and flange dimensions for the specific PCB layout.

Q: What is the significance of the backset spacing difference in HARTING substitutes?

A: Backset spacing is the distance from the connector mounting face to the rear of the connector body. The original FCC17C37PA69B has 0.318" (8.08mm) backset spacing, while HARTING substitutes have 0.409" (10.40mm). This difference affects the depth of the connector on the PCB and may impact component placement and board layout. PCB design must accommodate this increased depth.

Q: Are HARTING substitutes electrically compatible with the original FCC17C37PA69B?

A: Yes. HARTING substitutes meet or exceed the electrical requirements of the original part. The 6.5A current rating exceeds the 5A requirement, and the extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C) encompasses the original specification (-40°C to 85°C). All parts maintain the 37-position, 2-row configuration in shell size 4 (DC, C) with solder termination.

Q: What is the difference between flange features (unthreaded, M3, 4-40)?

A: Flange features define the mounting mechanism. Unthreaded flanges use friction fit or adhesive mounting. M3 flanges include metric threaded holes for M3 screws. 4-40 flanges include imperial threaded holes for 4-40 screws. Selection depends on the PCB mounting design and available fastening infrastructure.

Q: Do HARTING substitutes include board lock features?

A: Board lock features are present on HARTING parts 09654626810, 09654626815, 09654626816, and 09654627810. Board lock provides mechanical retention of the connector to the PCB during assembly and service. Parts 09654226800, 09654227800, 09654236800, 09654236801, and 09654236802 do not include board lock features.

Q: What is the impact of contact material differences (Phosphor Bronze vs. Copper Alloy)?

A: The original FCC17C37PA69B uses Phosphor Bronze contacts with gold plating. HARTING substitutes use Copper Alloy contacts. Both materials provide adequate electrical conductivity and contact reliability for signal applications. Contact finish specifications are not provided for HARTING parts; electrical performance is determined by the base copper alloy material and any applied plating.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: The FCE17C37PA69B is RoHS compliant. All HARTING substitutes are ROHS3 compliant. The original FCC17C37PA69B is RoHS non-compliant. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the FCE17C37PA69B or any HARTING substitute is appropriate.

Q: What inventory levels are available for each substitute?

A: Inventory availability is subject to change. Current stock levels are: FCE17C37PA69B (754 units), 09654226800 (1047 units), 09654227800 (822 units), 09654236800 (1021 units), 09654236801 (640 units), 09654236802 (909 units), 09654626810 (631 units), 09654626815 (694 units), 09654626816 (975 units), 09654627810 (739 units). Inventory status should be confirmed at the time of procurement.
