Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the FCC17E09PA2DB are grouped into two categories based on parametric equivalence and manufacturer compatibility:

Category 1: Direct Amphenol ICC Equivalents (FCE17 Series) These parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications with the main part across all critical parameters: 9-position D-Sub plug configuration, male pins, right-angle through-hole solder termination, 5A current rating, shell size 1 (DE, E), steel tin-plated shell, gold-plated contacts at 15.0µin thickness, UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range. The FCE17 series represents the active production equivalent to the obsolete FCC17 series. All FCE17 variants (FCE17E09PA2DB, FCE17E09PA20B, FCE17E09PA21B, FCE17E09PA24B, FCE17E09PA25B, FCE17E09PA28B, FCE17E09PA29B, FCE17E09PA2EB) are RoHS compliant, addressing regulatory requirements that the original part does not meet.

Category 2: Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives (HARTING) The HARTING parts 09651626815 and 09651626816 provide functional equivalence as 9-position D-Sub plug connectors with right-angle solder termination and male pins. These parts share the same connector style, position count, row configuration, and shell size layout. However, they differ in specific parameters: backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.318"), current rating (6.5A versus 5A), flange feature (M3 or 4-40 threaded versus unthreaded), contact form (stamped versus machined), dielectric material composition, and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 85°C).

Key Parameters Determining Substitution:

Connector style and type (D-Sub plug, male pins)
Position count and row configuration (9 positions, 2 rows)
Shell size and layout (1 / DE, E)
Mounting type (through-hole, right-angle)
Termination method (solder)
Current and voltage ratings
Operating temperature range
Flange feature type
Contact finish specifications

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: FCE17 Series (Amphenol ICC)

The FCE17E09PA2DB, FCE17E09PA20B, FCE17E09PA21B, FCE17E09PA24B, FCE17E09PA25B, FCE17E09PA28B, FCE17E09PA29B, and FCE17E09PA2EB connectors are the preferred substitutes for the obsolete FCC17E09PA2DB. These parts maintain complete electrical and mechanical compatibility with identical specifications across all critical parameters: 9-position D-Sub plug configuration, male pins, right-angle through-hole solder termination, 5A current rating, 200V voltage capability, -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range, steel tin-plated shell, gold-plated contacts at 15.0µin thickness, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. All FCE17 variants are RoHS compliant, addressing regulatory compliance requirements that the original FCC17E09PA2DB does not satisfy. The FCE17 series is in active production status with substantial inventory availability across all variants (822 to 1139 pieces in stock).

Secondary Recommendation: HARTING 09651626815 and 09651626816

The HARTING connectors 09651626815 and 09651626816 provide functional equivalence for applications where the primary Amphenol ICC FCE17 series is unavailable. These parts share the same D-Sub connector style, 9-position plug configuration with male pins, right-angle through-hole solder termination, and shell size 1 (DE, E) layout. Both HARTING parts are ROHS3 compliant and in active production. However, these alternatives differ in specific parameters that may affect application suitability: backset spacing is 0.409" (10.40mm) compared to 0.318" (8.08mm) in the main part, current rating is 6.5A versus 5A, flange features are threaded (M3 or 4-40) versus unthreaded, contact form is stamped versus machined, and operating temperature range extends to -55°C to 125°C. These differences require verification of mechanical fit and thermal performance requirements before implementation.

Compliance Considerations

The FCC17E09PA2DB is RoHS non-compliant. All recommended FCE17 series substitutes are RoHS compliant, making them suitable for applications subject to RoHS directives. The HARTING alternatives are ROHS3 compliant. Selection should account for regulatory requirements applicable to the end application and geographic market.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17 series connectors directly replace the obsolete FCC17E09PA2DB without design modifications?

A: Yes. The FCE17 series maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters including connector style, position count, shell size, mounting type, termination method, current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature range, shell material and finish, contact finish specifications, and flammability rating. Direct substitution is supported without design modifications.

Q: What is the primary difference between the FCC17 and FCE17 series?

A: The FCC17 series is obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, while the FCE17 series is in active production and RoHS compliant. All electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical between the two series.

Q: Are all FCE17 variants (PA2DB, PA20B, PA21B, PA24B, PA25B, PA28B, PA29B, PA2EB) electrically equivalent?

A: Yes. All FCE17 variants maintain identical electrical specifications and mechanical form factors. Variants differ in internal design features not affecting external electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: Can HARTING 09651626815 or 09651626816 be used as direct replacements for the FCC17E09PA2DB?

A: HARTING connectors provide functional equivalence as 9-position D-Sub plug connectors with right-angle solder termination. However, they differ in backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.318"), current rating (6.5A versus 5A), flange feature type (threaded versus unthreaded), contact form (stamped versus machined), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 85°C). Mechanical fit and thermal performance must be verified before implementation.

Q: What is the significance of backset spacing differences between the main part and HARTING alternatives?

A: Backset spacing determines the distance from the connector mounting surface to the contact plane. The main part and FCE17 series use 0.318" (8.08mm) spacing, while HARTING parts use 0.409" (10.40mm) spacing. This difference affects PCB layout, mating connector positioning, and overall assembly geometry. Designs must accommodate the specific backset spacing of the selected connector.

Q: Are the FCE17 series connectors available in the same packaging as the original FCC17E09PA2DB?

A: Packaging information is not specified in the provided data for either the main part or FCE17 variants. Contact the manufacturer or authorized distributor for specific packaging options and availability.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to each substitute option?

A: All FCE17 series variants are RoHS compliant. HARTING 09651626815 and 09651626816 are ROHS3 compliant. The original FCC17E09PA2DB is RoHS non-compliant. All parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Specific application requirements may necessitate additional certifications or compliance verification.

Q: Can the higher current rating of HARTING connectors (6.5A versus 5A) be used in applications designed for 5A?

A: Yes. A connector with higher current rating can be used in applications designed for lower current. However, other parameters such as backset spacing, flange feature type, and contact form must still be verified for mechanical compatibility and assembly requirements.

Q: What is the operating temperature range difference between the main part and HARTING alternatives?

A: The main part and FCE17 series operate from -40°C to 85°C. HARTING connectors operate from -55°C to 125°C, providing extended temperature capability. Applications requiring operation outside the -40°C to 85°C range should use HARTING alternatives only after verifying all other mechanical and electrical parameters.
