Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series

The FCE17C37PC690, FCE17C37PC600, FCE17C37PC610, FCE17C37PC640, FCE17C37PC650, FCE17C37PC680, FCE17C37PC6D0, and FCE17C37PC6E0 connectors are the preferred substitutes for the obsolete FCC17C37PC690. These parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and RoHS compliance. The FCE17 series represents a direct evolution of the FCC17 series with enhanced environmental compliance. All eight variants share the same core parameters and differ only in internal contact configurations not affecting external compatibility.

Secondary Recommendation: HARTING 09654226800 and 09654227800

The HARTING connectors provide functional equivalence with the following considerations: backset spacing differs at 0.409" (10.40mm) versus the original 0.590" (14.99mm), requiring PCB layout verification. Contact form is stamped rather than machined, and operating temperature range extends to -55°C ~ 125°C. Current rating is higher at 6.5A. These parts are suitable for applications where extended temperature performance is required and PCB layout accommodates the reduced backset spacing.

Compliance Considerations

Designs requiring RoHS compliance must transition from the non-compliant FCC17C37PC690 to an active RoHS-compliant substitute. The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series provides direct compliance without design modification. HARTING parts offer ROHS3 compliance with extended environmental performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FCE17C37PC690 directly replace FCC17C37PC690 without PCB modification?

A: Yes. The FCE17C37PC690 maintains identical mounting dimensions, backset spacing (0.590"), shell size (4 DC, C), and solder termination specifications. No PCB layout changes are required.

Q: What is the difference between the eight FCE17 variants (PC690, PC600, PC610, PC640, PC650, PC680, PC6D0, PC6E0)?

A: All eight variants share identical external mechanical and electrical parameters. The suffix designations reflect internal contact configuration variations that do not affect connector mating or PCB mounting. Selection among these variants depends on internal circuit routing requirements specific to the application.

Q: Are HARTING 09654226800 and 09654227800 pin-compatible with FCC17C37PC690?

A: Both connectors provide 37-position D-Sub plug functionality with identical pin count and 2-row configuration. However, backset spacing differs (0.409" vs. 0.590"), requiring PCB layout verification before substitution. Pin assignment and mating interface remain compatible.

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

A: The original FCC17C37PC690 is RoHS non-compliant, while all recommended substitutes are RoHS compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations or customer requirements, substitution to an RoHS-compliant part is mandatory. The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series provides direct compliance without performance trade-offs.

Q: Does the extended operating temperature range of HARTING connectors (-55°C ~ 125°C vs. -40°C ~ 85°C) affect compatibility?

A: Extended temperature capability does not affect compatibility. HARTING connectors operate within the original temperature range and exceed it. Selection should be based on application requirements. If the original -40°C ~ 85°C range is sufficient, either Amphenol ICC or HARTING parts are suitable.

Q: What is the impact of contact form differences (machined vs. stamped)?

A: Contact form affects manufacturing process and cost but does not impact electrical performance or mating characteristics. Machined contacts (FCC17/FCE17) provide tighter tolerances; stamped contacts (HARTING) offer cost efficiency. Both forms meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and deliver equivalent signal integrity.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for part selection?

A: Current inventory levels are: FCC17C37PC690 (1132 pcs), FCE17C37PC690 (887 pcs), FCE17C37PC680 (1145 pcs), FCE17C37PC6D0 (1001 pcs), 09654226800 (1047 pcs), and 09654227800 (822 pcs). Inventory status should be verified at time of procurement as levels change.
