FCC17C37SC600 D-Sub Receptacle Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FCC17C37SC600 is a 37-position D-Sub receptacle connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This through-hole, right-angle solder-terminated connector features female sockets with a 2-row configuration in shell size 4 (DC, C). The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Substitute parts maintain functional compatibility while offering improved product status and compliance characteristics.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories based on substitution logic:

Category 1: Direct Series Equivalents (Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series)

The FCE17C37SC600, FCE17C37SC610, FCE17C37SC640, FCE17C37SC650, FCE17C37SC680, FCE17C37SC690, FCE17C37SC6D0, and FCE17C37SC6E0 are direct equivalents from Amphenol ICC. These parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: 37-position configuration, 2-row layout, shell size 4 (DC, C), through-hole right-angle solder termination, 5A current rating, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, 0.590" backset spacing, board lock and filter features, and operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. The primary distinction is product status: all FCE17 variants are active, whereas the FCC17C37SC600 is obsolete. All FCE17 variants are RoHS compliant, addressing regulatory requirements not met by the original part.

Category 2: Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives (HARTING Series)

The HARTING parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 provide functional alternatives with the same connector style, type, position count, row configuration, shell size, mounting method, and termination approach. These parts maintain compatibility with the same D-Sub receptacle interface specifications. However, they differ in specific electrical and mechanical parameters including current rating, backset spacing, flange feature design, contact form, dielectric material composition, and operating temperature range.

Key Parameters Determining Substitution:

Connector style (D-Sub), connector type (receptacle, female sockets), number of positions (37), number of rows (2), shell size (4/DC/C), mounting type (through hole, right angle), and termination method (solder) are the primary criteria establishing substitution eligibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series

The FCE17C37SC600, FCE17C37SC610, FCE17C37SC640, FCE17C37SC650, FCE17C37SC680, FCE17C37SC690, FCE17C37SC6D0, and FCE17C37SC6E0 are the preferred substitutes for the obsolete FCC17C37SC600. These parts maintain complete electrical and mechanical compatibility with identical specifications across all critical parameters: 37-position configuration, 2-row layout, shell size 4 (DC, C), through-hole right-angle solder termination, 5A current rating, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, 0.590" backset spacing, and -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range. All FCE17 variants are active products with RoHS compliance, addressing the regulatory and availability limitations of the obsolete FCC17C37SC600. These parts are manufactured by the same supplier, ensuring design continuity and supply chain stability.

Secondary Recommendation: HARTING Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives

The HARTING parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 provide functional alternatives for applications where cross-manufacturer sourcing is acceptable. Both parts maintain the same D-Sub receptacle interface, 37-position configuration, 2-row layout, shell size 4 (DC, C), through-hole right-angle solder termination, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. These parts are active products with ROHS3 compliance. However, they differ in backset spacing (0.401" and 0.409" respectively, compared to 0.590"), current rating (7.5A and 6.5A respectively, compared to 5A), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C, compared to -40°C to 85°C). The HARTING alternatives are suitable only for applications where these parameter differences do not create design conflicts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17 series parts directly replace the FCC17C37SC600 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The FCE17 series maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including connector configuration, position count, shell size, mounting method, termination approach, current rating, flammability rating, backset spacing, and operating temperature range. The primary differences are product status (active versus obsolete) and RoHS compliance (compliant versus non-compliant).

Q: What is the significance of the different FCE17 part number suffixes (SC600, SC610, SC640, SC650, SC680, SC690, SC6D0, SC6E0)?

A: The suffix variations indicate different contact material or plating specifications within the FCE17 series. All variants maintain identical electrical and mechanical interface specifications and are functionally interchangeable for the same application requirements.

Q: Are the HARTING parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 direct replacements for the FCC17C37SC600?

A: The HARTING parts provide functional alternatives for D-Sub receptacle applications with the same connector style, type, position count, row configuration, shell size, mounting method, and termination approach. However, they differ in backset spacing, current rating, and operating temperature range. These differences may create design conflicts in applications with specific spacing or thermal requirements. Compatibility must be evaluated based on individual application parameters.

Q: What is backset spacing and why does it matter for substitution?

A: Backset spacing is the distance from the rear of the connector shell to the solder contact points on the printed circuit board. The FCC17C37SC600 and all FCE17 variants specify 0.590" (14.99mm) backset spacing, which is critical for PCB layout and component placement. The HARTING alternatives specify different backset spacing (0.401" and 0.409"), which may require PCB redesign and is not compatible with existing board layouts designed for the original part.

Q: Why is RoHS compliance important for this substitution?

A: RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance is a regulatory requirement in many markets. The FCC17C37SC600 is RoHS non-compliant, while all FCE17 variants and HARTING alternatives are RoHS or ROHS3 compliant. For new designs and ongoing production, RoHS-compliant parts are required to meet regulatory standards and market access requirements.

Q: Can I use a HARTING part if my application requires the -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range?

A: The HARTING parts specify an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C, which exceeds the -40°C to 85°C requirement of the FCC17C37SC600. This wider temperature range is compatible with applications requiring the original temperature specification. However, other parameter differences (backset spacing and current rating) must still be evaluated for compatibility.

Q: What inventory levels are available for these substitute parts?

A: Current inventory levels are: FCE17C37SC600 (825 pcs), FCE17C37SC610 (818 pcs), FCE17C37SC640 (828 pcs), FCE17C37SC650 (933 pcs), FCE17C37SC680 (740 pcs), FCE17C37SC690 (1072 pcs), FCE17C37SC6D0 (689 pcs), FCE17C37SC6E0 (670 pcs), 09644147232 (715 pcs), and 09664127600 (930 pcs). The FCE17C37SC690 offers the highest inventory availability among Amphenol ICC options.

Q: Are there any certifications or compliance differences between the FCC17C37SC600 and its substitutes?

A: All parts share UL94 V-0 flammability rating and EAR99 ECCN classification. The primary compliance difference is RoHS status: the FCC17C37SC600 is RoHS non-compliant, while all FCE17 variants are RoHS compliant and HARTING parts are ROHS3 compliant. All parts have MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.
