Engineering Selection Recommendations

Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (FCE17C37PC200, FCE17C37PC210, FCE17C37PC240, FCE17C37PC250, FCE17C37PC280, FCE17C37PC290, FCE17C37PC2D0, FCE17C37PC2E0):

These connectors are direct functional equivalents to the FCC17C37PC200 and are the primary recommended substitutes. All FCE17 variants maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications including 37-position configuration, 5A current rating, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range. The FCE17 series connectors are active products with RoHS compliance, addressing the obsolescence of the FCC17C37PC200. The FCE17C37PC200 variant provides the closest match to the original part with identical backset spacing of 0.590" (14.99mm) and phosphor bronze contacts with gold finish. Alternative FCE17 variants (PC210, PC240, PC250, PC280, PC290, PC2D0, PC2E0) differ in connector pin configuration or contact specifications but maintain core mechanical and electrical compatibility for 37-position D-Sub applications.

HARTING 09654226800 and 09654227800:

These HARTING connectors provide alternative D-Sub 37-position plug solutions with active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Both parts maintain the required 37-position, 2-row configuration with right-angle through-hole solder termination and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The HARTING connectors feature a higher current rating of 6.5A compared to the 5A rating of the FCC17C37PC200, providing additional electrical capacity. Operating temperature range extends to -55°C to 125°C, exceeding the original specification. However, the backset spacing differs at 0.409" (10.40mm) versus the original 0.590" (14.99mm), requiring PCB layout verification before implementation. Contact material is copper alloy rather than phosphor bronze, and contact finish specifications are not provided.

Selection Criteria:

For applications requiring direct mechanical and electrical compatibility with minimal design changes, select FCE17C37PC200 or other FCE17 variants from Amphenol ICC. For applications where extended temperature range and higher current capacity are beneficial and PCB layout can accommodate the different backset spacing, HARTING alternatives are suitable. RoHS compliance requirements should drive selection toward FCE17 or HARTING options, as the original FCC17C37PC200 is non-compliant.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17C37PC200 directly replace the FCC17C37PC200 without PCB modifications?

A: Yes. The FCE17C37PC200 maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications including backset spacing of 0.590" (14.99mm), 37-position configuration, right-angle through-hole mounting, and 5A current rating. No PCB layout changes are required for this substitution.

Q: What is the difference between the various FCE17C37PC2XX variants?

A: All FCE17C37PC2XX variants (PC200, PC210, PC240, PC250, PC280, PC290, PC2D0, PC2E0) share identical core specifications for 37-position D-Sub plug connectors with right-angle solder termination. Differences exist in connector pin configuration or contact specifications denoted by the final characters in the part number. Selection depends on specific application requirements for pin arrangement or contact type.

Q: Are HARTING 09654226800 and 09654227800 pin-compatible with the FCC17C37PC200?

A: Both HARTING connectors maintain 37-position, 2-row D-Sub plug configuration with right-angle solder termination. However, the backset spacing differs at 0.409" (10.40mm) compared to the original 0.590" (14.99mm). PCB hole pattern verification is required before implementation. Pin-to-pin electrical compatibility is maintained for 37-position signal applications.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS compliance difference?

A: The original FCC17C37PC200 is RoHS non-compliant, while all recommended substitutes (FCE17 series and HARTING) are RoHS compliant or ROHS3 compliant. For new designs and applications subject to RoHS regulations, selection of compliant alternatives is mandatory. Existing legacy systems using the FCC17C37PC200 may continue operation, but new procurement should transition to compliant alternatives.

Q: Can I use HARTING connectors in applications requiring the exact -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range?

A: Yes. HARTING 09654226800 and 09654227800 operate across -55°C to 125°C, which encompasses and exceeds the original -40°C to 85°C specification. These connectors are suitable for applications with the original temperature requirements and provide additional margin for extended temperature environments.

Q: What is the current rating difference between the FCC17C37PC200 and HARTING alternatives?

A: The FCC17C37PC200 is rated for 5A, while HARTING 09654226800 and 09654227800 are rated for 6.5A. For applications operating at or near the 5A limit, the HARTING alternatives provide additional current capacity. For applications below 5A, both options are suitable.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants are supplied without specified packaging designation. HARTING 09654226800 and 09654227800 are supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging requirements should be confirmed with component suppliers based on specific procurement and assembly processes.

Q: What contact material differences exist between substitutes?

A: The FCC17C37PC200 and all Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants use phosphor bronze contacts with gold finish. HARTING 09654226800 and 09654227800 use copper alloy contacts with unspecified finish. For applications sensitive to contact material properties or corrosion resistance, phosphor bronze with gold finish provides superior performance characteristics.
