FCC17C37SC610 D-Sub Receptacle 37-Position Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FCC17C37SC610 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 gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts and a tin-plated steel shell. The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent and substitute components for ongoing design support and procurement continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FCC17C37SC610 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Primary Equivalence Criteria:

Connector style (D-Sub)
Connector type (Receptacle, Female Sockets)
Number of positions (37)
Number of rows (2)
Shell size and layout (4 / DC, C)
Mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle)
Termination method (Solder)
Contact type (Signal)
Flange feature (Housing/Shell)
Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
Current rating (5A)
Backset spacing (0.590" / 14.99mm)
Features (Board Lock, Filter)
Contact material (Phosphor Bronze)
Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C)
Dielectric material (Thermoplastic)

Secondary Considerations:

Product status (Active vs. Obsolete)
RoHS compliance status
Inventory availability
Contact finish specifications

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories: direct Amphenol ICC equivalents within the FCE17 series (representing active production alternatives to the obsolete FCC17 series), and cross-manufacturer alternatives from HARTING that maintain functional and mechanical compatibility while introducing variations in specific parameters such as backset spacing, contact form, and dielectric material composition.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (Direct Manufacturer Equivalents)

The FCE17C37SC610, FCE17C37SC600, FCE17C37SC640, FCE17C37SC650, FCE17C37SC680, FCE17C37SC690, FCE17C37SC6D0, and FCE17C37SC6E0 represent the active production line equivalents to the obsolete FCC17C37SC610. All FCE17 variants maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications with the following distinctions:

All FCE17 parts are Active product status with RoHS Compliant certification, addressing regulatory requirements that the FCC17C37SC610 does not meet
Dielectric material composition differs: FCE17 series uses Thermoplastic with Glass Filled formulation, compared to the base Thermoplastic in FCC17C37SC610
Voltage rating is not specified for FCE17 variants, whereas FCC17C37SC610 specifies 200V
All FCE17 variants maintain identical backset spacing (0.590" / 14.99mm), current rating (5A), contact finish (Gold, 15.0µin), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C)
Inventory availability ranges from 670 to 1072 pieces across the FCE17 variants

HARTING Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives

The HARTING 09644147232 and 09664127600 connectors provide functional D-Sub 37-position receptacle alternatives with the following parameter variations:

HARTING 09644147232: Current rating 7.5A (exceeds FCC17C37SC610 specification of 5A), voltage rating 100V (below FCC17C37SC610 specification of 200V), backset spacing 0.401" (10.20mm) versus 0.590" (14.99mm), operating temperature -55°C ~ 125°C (extended range), contact form Machined, dielectric material PCT, ROHS3 Compliant
HARTING 09664127600: Current rating 6.5A, backset spacing 0.409" (10.40mm), contact form Stamped, dielectric material PBT/Polyester Glass Filled, ROHS3 Compliant, operating temperature -55°C ~ 125°C

HARTING alternatives are suitable for applications where extended operating temperature range and higher current capacity are required, provided that backset spacing differences are accommodated in PCB layout design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FCE17C37SC610 directly replace FCC17C37SC610 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The FCE17C37SC610 maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications including connector style, position count, shell size, mounting type, termination method, current rating (5A), backset spacing (0.590"), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C). The primary differences are product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and RoHS compliance (Compliant vs. non-compliant). Dielectric material composition differs slightly (Glass Filled Thermoplastic vs. base Thermoplastic), but this does not affect functional compatibility.

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

A: The suffix variations indicate different internal configuration or specification variants within the FCE17C37 base product line. All variants maintain identical external mechanical dimensions, connector layout, and primary electrical parameters. The suffixes distinguish internal design or material variations that do not affect interchangeability for standard D-Sub 37-position receptacle applications.

Q: Are HARTING alternatives mechanically compatible with FCC17C37SC610?

A: HARTING alternatives maintain D-Sub 37-position receptacle configuration and through-hole right-angle solder termination. However, backset spacing differs significantly: HARTING 09644147232 specifies 0.401" (10.20mm) and HARTING 09664127600 specifies 0.409" (10.40mm), compared to 0.590" (14.99mm) for FCC17C37SC610. This difference affects PCB mounting hole positioning and requires design layout verification before substitution.

Q: What is the impact of RoHS compliance status on part selection?

A: FCC17C37SC610 is RoHS non-compliant, while all FCE17 variants and HARTING alternatives are RoHS Compliant or ROHS3 Compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations (EU Directive 2011/65/EU and amendments), RoHS-compliant alternatives are required. For legacy or non-regulated applications, RoHS status does not affect functional performance.

Q: How do contact finish specifications compare across substitute options?

A: FCC17C37SC610 and all FCE17 variants specify gold contact finish at 15.0µin (0.38µm) thickness. HARTING alternatives do not specify contact finish in the provided data. Gold plating provides superior corrosion resistance and contact reliability compared to unspecified finishes. For applications requiring documented contact finish specifications, Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants are preferred.

Q: What are the operating temperature implications of HARTING alternatives?

A: FCC17C37SC610 and FCE17 variants operate within -40°C ~ 85°C. HARTING alternatives (09644147232 and 09664127600) extend the operating range to -55°C ~ 125°C. For applications requiring operation below -40°C or above 85°C, HARTING alternatives provide extended thermal capability. For standard temperature range applications, this difference is not a limiting factor.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for part selection?

A: FCC17C37SC610 has 1008 pieces in stock (obsolete status). FCE17 variants range from 670 to 1072 pieces in stock (all Active). HARTING 09644147232 has 715 pieces and 09664127600 has 930 pieces in stock. For immediate procurement, all listed alternatives have adequate inventory availability.

Q: What is the significance of current rating differences in HARTING alternatives?

A: FCC17C37SC610 specifies 5A current rating. HARTING 09644147232 specifies 7.5A and HARTING 09664127600 specifies 6.5A. Higher current ratings indicate greater current-carrying capacity. For applications operating at or near the 5A specification limit, HARTING alternatives provide additional margin. For applications below 5A, current rating differences are not limiting.
