Shell size and layout: 4 (DC, C)
Mounting: Through hole, right angle
Termination method: Solder
Flange type: Board side M3

Secondary Compatibility Parameters:

Current rating: 5A minimum
Voltage rating: 200V minimum
Operating temperature range: -40°C to 85°C minimum
Contact finish: Gold plated
Shell material: Steel with tin plating
Flammability: UL94 V-0

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Category 1: Direct Series Equivalents (Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series) Parts FCE17C37SC65B, FCE17C37SC60B, FCE17C37SC61B, FCE17C37SC64B, FCE17C37SC68B, FCE17C37SC69B, FCE17C37SC6DB, and FCE17C37SC6EB share identical mechanical and electrical specifications with the main part. These components differ only in contact finish thickness specifications or dielectric material composition (thermoplastic versus thermoplastic glass-filled). All FCE17 variants are active products with RoHS compliance.

Category 2: Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives (HARTING) Parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 from HARTING provide functional equivalence with variations in backset spacing, flange mounting style, contact form, and dielectric material. These alternatives maintain the 37-position, 2-row D-Sub receptacle configuration with right-angle solder termination but differ in specific mechanical and material properties.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For RoHS-Compliant Applications:

The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series (FCE17C37SC65B, FCE17C37SC60B, FCE17C37SC61B, FCE17C37SC64B, FCE17C37SC68B, FCE17C37SC69B, FCE17C37SC6DB, FCE17C37SC6EB) provides direct functional replacement with RoHS compliance certification. All FCE17 variants maintain active product status and are available in current inventory. These parts are preferred for new designs and legacy system updates requiring regulatory compliance.

For Extended Temperature Range Applications:

HARTING parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 support operating temperatures from -55°C to 125°C, exceeding the FCC17C37SC65B specification of -40°C to 85°C. Selection of these alternatives is appropriate for applications requiring enhanced thermal performance. Both HARTING components carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status.

For Mechanical Compatibility:

The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series maintains identical board-side M3 flange mounting and backset spacing (0.590" / 14.99mm) with the FCC17C37SC65B. HARTING alternatives feature different flange configurations (housing/shell mounting) and backset spacing variations (0.401" to 0.409"), requiring mechanical design verification before substitution.

For Electrical Performance:

All substitute parts meet or exceed the 5A current rating and support the 200V voltage specification of the main part. HARTING alternatives provide higher current ratings (6.5A to 7.5A), offering design margin for high-current applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FCE17C37SC65B directly replace FCC17C37SC65B in existing designs?

A: Yes. The FCE17C37SC65B is a direct functional equivalent with identical mechanical and electrical specifications. The primary difference is product status (active versus obsolete) and RoHS compliance. No design modifications are required for mechanical or electrical compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the dielectric material difference between FCC17C37SC65B and FCE17 variants?

A: The FCC17C37SC65B uses thermoplastic dielectric material, while FCE17 variants use thermoplastic glass-filled material. Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and operate within the specified temperature range. The glass-filled variant provides enhanced mechanical strength and thermal stability. This difference does not affect electrical performance or connector compatibility.

Q: Are HARTING parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 mechanically interchangeable with the FCC17C37SC65B?

A: No. While both HARTING parts maintain the 37-position D-Sub receptacle configuration with right-angle solder termination, they feature different flange mounting styles and backset spacing. The FCC17C37SC65B uses board-side M3 flange mounting with 0.590" backset spacing. HARTING 09644147232 uses housing/shell 4-40 mounting with 0.401" backset spacing. HARTING 09664127600 uses unthreaded housing/shell mounting with 0.409" backset spacing. PCB layout modifications are required for HARTING substitution.

Q: Which substitute part offers the best compliance profile for new product development?

A: The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series (all variants) provides the optimal compliance profile for new designs. All FCE17 parts carry RoHS compliance certification and active product status. These components are recommended for applications subject to RoHS directives and for designs requiring long-term component availability.

Q: What is the inventory status of substitute parts?

A: FCE17C37SC65B (767 units), FCE17C37SC60B (846 units), FCE17C37SC61B (742 units), FCE17C37SC64B (690 units), FCE17C37SC68B (667 units), FCE17C37SC69B (666 units), FCE17C37SC6DB (924 units), and FCE17C37SC6EB (870 units) are available in current inventory. HARTING 09644147232 (715 units) and 09664127600 (930 units) are also in stock. The original FCC17C37SC65B has 920 units available as new original stock.

Q: Can the FCC17C37SC65B be used in applications requiring ROHS3 compliance?

A: No. The FCC17C37SC65B is RoHS non-compliant. For ROHS3-compliant applications, select from the Amphenol ICC FCE17 series (RoHS compliant) or HARTING alternatives (ROHS3 compliant).

Q: What are the contact finish specifications for HARTING alternatives?

A: Contact finish specifications are not provided for HARTING parts 09644147232 and 09664127600. The FCC17C37SC65B and all FCE17 variants specify gold contact finish at 15.0µin (0.38µm) thickness. Contact finish verification with HARTING technical documentation is recommended before substitution in applications with specific contact resistance or corrosion resistance requirements.
