Number of rows: 2
Shell size and layout: 4 (DC, C)
Mounting type: Through Hole, Right Angle
Termination method: Solder
Flange feature: Board Side (M3)
Current rating: 5A
Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C
Shell material and finish: Steel, Tin Plated
Contact finish: Gold
Contact material: Phosphor Bronze
Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Category 1: Direct Amphenol ICC Equivalents (FCE17 Series) Parts FCE17C37SC6EB, FCE17C37SC60B, FCE17C37SC61B, FCE17C37SC64B, FCE17C37SC65B, FCE17C37SC68B, and FCE17C37SC69B maintain all critical parameters identical to the main part. These parts differ only in dielectric material composition (Thermoplastic, Glass Filled versus standard Thermoplastic) and RoHS compliance status (RoHS Compliant versus RoHS non-compliant). All FCE17 variants are active products.

Category 2: Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives (HARTING) Parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 from HARTING maintain core connector geometry and electrical function but exhibit variations in specific parameters including backset spacing, current rating, voltage rating, contact form, dielectric material, and operating temperature range. These parts are functionally compatible for 37 position D-Sub receptacle applications but require design verification for parameter-specific requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (Direct Equivalents)

The FCE17C37SC6EB, FCE17C37SC60B, FCE17C37SC61B, FCE17C37SC64B, FCE17C37SC65B, FCE17C37SC68B, FCE17C37SC69B, and FCE17C37SC6DB are the primary substitutes for the obsolete FCC17C37SC6EB. All FCE17 variants maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. These parts are active products with established supply chains and higher inventory availability.

The FCE17 series offers RoHS compliance, addressing regulatory requirements for new designs. The dielectric material composition differs (Thermoplastic, Glass Filled) but maintains equivalent performance within the specified operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and current rating of 5A.

HARTING Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives

Parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 from HARTING provide functional alternatives for 37 position D-Sub receptacle applications. These connectors maintain the core connector geometry, shell size, and solder termination method.

Part 09644147232 features a higher current rating of 7.5A and extended operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The flange feature differs (Housing/Shell with 4-40 threads) and the dielectric material is polycyclohexylenedimethylene terephthalate (PCT). Voltage rating is specified at 100V.

Part 09664127600 provides a current rating of 6.5A and extended operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The flange feature is Housing/Shell (Unthreaded), and the dielectric material is polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), Polyester, Glass Filled. Contact form is stamped rather than machined.

Selection between Amphenol ICC and HARTING alternatives depends on specific application requirements regarding flange mounting configuration, operating temperature range, and current capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FCE17C37SC6EB directly replace FCC17C37SC6EB?

A: Yes. The FCE17C37SC6EB maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters including connector type, position count, shell size, mounting configuration, termination method, current rating, operating temperature range, shell material, contact finish, and flammability rating. The primary difference is RoHS compliance status and dielectric material composition, which do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between the various FCE17 variants?

A: All FCE17 variants (SC6EB, SC60B, SC61B, SC64B, SC65B, SC68B, SC69B, SC6DB) maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Differences exist only in dielectric material formulation and internal design variations that do not affect connector performance within the specified operating parameters.

Q: Are HARTING parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 direct replacements?

A: HARTING parts are functionally compatible for 37 position D-Sub receptacle applications but are not direct replacements. These parts differ in flange feature configuration, current rating, operating temperature range, and dielectric material. Part 09644147232 features a 4-40 threaded flange and 7.5A current rating. Part 09664127600 features an unthreaded flange and 6.5A current rating. Design verification is required to confirm compatibility with specific mounting and thermal requirements.

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

A: The original FCC17C37SC6EB is RoHS non-compliant. All FCE17 variants are RoHS Compliant, and HARTING parts are ROHS3 Compliant. For new designs and applications subject to RoHS regulations, the compliant alternatives are required. For legacy systems using the original part, RoHS compliance may not be a functional requirement.

Q: How do operating temperature ranges affect substitution?

A: The FCC17C37SC6EB and all FCE17 variants operate within -40°C to 85°C. HARTING parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 operate within -55°C to 125°C, providing extended temperature capability. Selection depends on application thermal requirements. If the application operates within -40°C to 85°C, all parts are suitable. If extended temperature operation is required, HARTING alternatives provide additional margin.

Q: What is the difference between Board Side (M3) and Housing/Shell flange features?

A: Board Side (M3) flange features are mounted directly to the printed circuit board with M3 threaded holes. Housing/Shell flange features mount to the connector housing or external enclosure. Part 09644147232 uses 4-40 threaded Housing/Shell mounting, and part 09664127600 uses unthreaded Housing/Shell mounting. Mounting configuration must align with the application's mechanical design.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for substitute selection?

A: Current inventory levels are provided for reference. FCE17C37SC6DB has the highest inventory at 924 pieces. HARTING part 09664127600 has 930 pieces available. Inventory levels may change and should be confirmed at the time of procurement.

Q: What is the significance of contact material differences (Phosphor Bronze versus Copper Alloy)?

A: The FCC17C37SC6EB and all FCE17 variants use Phosphor Bronze contacts. HARTING parts use Copper Alloy contacts. Both materials provide adequate electrical conductivity and contact reliability for the specified 5A to 7.5A current ratings. Material selection does not affect functional compatibility within the specified electrical parameters.
