Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series):

The FCE17C37SB690, FCE17C37SB600, FCE17C37SB610, FCE17C37SB640, FCE17C37SB650, FCE17C37SB680, FCE17C37SB6D0, and FCE17C37SB6E0 represent the direct equivalent family for the obsolete FCC17C37SB690. All FCE17 variants maintain identical mechanical form factor, electrical performance (5A, -40°C to 85°C), and contact specifications. The primary distinction is RoHS compliance status: all FCE17 variants are RoHS-compliant, whereas the original FCC17C37SB690 is non-compliant. These substitutes are recommended for new designs and ongoing production where RoHS compliance is required or preferred.

Secondary Substitutes (HARTING Cross-Manufacturer Options):

The HARTING 09644147232 and 09664127600 connectors provide mechanical and functional equivalence with enhanced electrical performance. The 09644147232 offers 7.5A current rating and 100V voltage rating with extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C). The 09664127600 provides 6.5A current rating with the same extended temperature range. Both HARTING options are ROHS3-compliant and REACH-unaffected. These alternatives are suitable for applications requiring higher current capacity or extended environmental operating conditions.

Compliance Considerations:

Selection between Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants and HARTING alternatives depends on design requirements for RoHS compliance, voltage/current margins, and operating temperature envelope. For applications with legacy RoHS non-compliance requirements, the FCE17 series maintains backward compatibility while providing modern compliance certifications. For applications requiring enhanced electrical performance or extended temperature operation, HARTING alternatives provide superior specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FCE17C37SB690 directly replace FCC17C37SB690 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The FCE17C37SB690 maintains identical mechanical dimensions, pin configuration, electrical ratings (5A, 200V equivalent), and contact specifications. The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. Physical interchangeability is confirmed across all mounting, termination, and flange specifications.

Q: What distinguishes the multiple FCE17 variants (SB600, SB610, SB640, SB650, SB680, SB6D0, SB6E0)?

A: The FCE17 variants differ in internal configuration codes (the suffix designation) but maintain identical external mechanical form factor, electrical performance, and contact specifications. Selection among variants depends on specific internal contact arrangement or filtering requirements defined by the suffix code. All variants are mechanically and electrically interchangeable for standard 37-position D-Sub receptacle applications.

Q: Are HARTING connectors (09644147232, 09664127600) pin-compatible with the FCC17C37SB690?

A: Yes. Both HARTING connectors maintain the 37-position, 2-row D-Sub shell size 4 (DC, C) configuration with identical pin spacing and through-hole right-angle mounting. Mechanical interchangeability is confirmed. However, HARTING variants feature different contact material composition (copper alloy versus phosphor bronze) and different dielectric materials. Electrical performance exceeds the original specification (6.5A to 7.5A versus 5A).

Q: What is the voltage rating difference between FCC17C37SB690 (200V) and HARTING 09644147232 (100V)?

A: The original FCC17C37SB690 is rated for 200V operation. The HARTING 09644147232 is rated for 100V. For applications requiring 200V operation, the Amphenol ICC FCE17 series maintains the 200V specification. The HARTING option is suitable only for applications operating at 100V or below.

Q: Are all substitute parts suitable for solder termination on printed circuit boards?

A: Yes. All listed substitutes employ solder termination methodology compatible with standard through-hole PCB assembly processes. Backset spacing across all parts ranges from 0.401" to 0.409" (10.20mm to 10.40mm), which is within standard PCB design tolerance for D-Sub connector footprints.

Q: What is the significance of RoHS compliance for substitute selection?

A: The original FCC17C37SB690 is RoHS non-compliant. All Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants are RoHS-compliant, and both HARTING options are ROHS3-compliant. For new product designs or markets with RoHS regulatory requirements, compliant substitutes are necessary. For legacy system maintenance where RoHS compliance is not mandated, either compliant or non-compliant substitutes are functionally equivalent.

Q: Can the extended temperature range of HARTING connectors (-55°C to 125°C) be used in place of the FCC17C37SB690 (-40°C to 85°C)?

A: Yes. The HARTING extended temperature range encompasses the original specification. However, the original FCC17C37SB690 and Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants are rated only to -40°C to 85°C. For applications requiring operation below -40°C or above 85°C, HARTING alternatives provide the necessary thermal performance. For applications within the -40°C to 85°C envelope, either option is suitable.

Q: What inventory availability should be considered for substitute selection?

A: Current inventory levels are: FCC17C37SB690 (852 pcs), FCE17C37SB690 (878 pcs), FCE17C37SB600 (738 pcs), FCE17C37SB610 (1066 pcs), FCE17C37SB640 (916 pcs), FCE17C37SB650 (1034 pcs), FCE17C37SB680 (749 pcs), FCE17C37SB6D0 (875 pcs), FCE17C37SB6E0 (1161 pcs), HARTING 09644147232 (715 pcs), and HARTING 09664127600 (930 pcs). Inventory levels support production requirements across all substitute options.
