Engineering Selection Recommendations

Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (FCE17E09PC400, FCE17E09PC410, FCE17E09PC440, FCE17E09PC450, FCE17E09PC480, FCE17E09PC490, FCE17E09PC4D0, FCE17E09PC4E0)

The FCE17 series represents the direct active equivalent to the obsolete FCC17E09PC400. All variants maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications with the following advantages:

Active product status ensures ongoing availability and manufacturing support
RoHS Compliant certification meets current regulatory requirements
Enhanced dielectric material (Thermoplastic, Glass Filled) provides improved mechanical and thermal properties compared to the original thermoplastic formulation
Identical backset spacing (0.590" / 14.99mm), current rating (5A), and operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C)
Maintained contact specifications: Gold finish, Phosphor Bronze material, 15.0µin thickness
All feature sets preserved: Board Lock, Filter, Grounding Indents
UL94 V-0 flammability rating maintained

The FCE17 variants differ only in internal contact configurations or plating specifications not detailed in the provided parameters. Selection among these variants depends on specific application requirements and internal contact specifications.

HARTING 09651626815 and 09651626816

These HARTING alternatives provide functional D-Sub 9-position plug connectors with the following characteristics:

Active product status with ROHS3 Compliant certification
Higher current rating (6.5A) exceeds the original 5A specification, providing additional capacity margin
Extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C) compared to the original -40°C ~ 85°C
Identical shell size (1 / DE, E), mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle), and termination (Solder)
Maintained flange feature (Housing/Shell) with 4-40 mounting on 09651626816; M3 mounting on 09651626815
Stamped contact form differs from the original machined contacts
Copper Alloy contact material differs from Phosphor Bronze
Reduced backset spacing (0.409" / 10.40mm) compared to the original 0.590" (14.99mm)

The HARTING alternatives are suitable for applications where extended temperature performance and higher current capacity are beneficial. The 09651626816 variant maintains 4-40 flange mounting compatibility with the original part.

Compliance Considerations

For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the FCE17 series and HARTING alternatives are mandatory selections. The original FCC17E09PC400 is RoHS non-compliant and unsuitable for new designs subject to RoHS regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17E09PC400 directly replace the FCC17E09PC400 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The FCE17E09PC400 maintains identical mechanical dimensions, electrical ratings, and connector interface specifications. The primary differences are product status (active vs. obsolete), RoHS compliance, and enhanced dielectric material formulation. Direct substitution is functionally equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between the various FCE17 variants (PC400, PC410, PC440, PC450, PC480, PC490, PC4D0, PC4E0)?

A: All FCE17 variants share identical external mechanical specifications, electrical ratings, and operating parameters. The alphanumeric suffix designates internal contact configurations or plating specifications not detailed in the provided parameters. Selection should be based on specific application requirements and internal contact specifications from detailed datasheets.

Q: Are the HARTING 09651626815 and 09651626816 fully compatible with the FCC17E09PC400?

A: Both HARTING parts maintain core D-Sub 9-position plug functionality with identical connector style, type, positions, rows, and shell size. However, three parameters differ: backset spacing (0.409" vs. 0.590"), contact material (Copper Alloy vs. Phosphor Bronze), and contact form (Stamped vs. Machined). The 09651626816 maintains 4-40 flange mounting; the 09651626815 uses M3 mounting. These differences may affect mechanical fit and electrical performance in applications with tight spacing or specific contact requirements. Compatibility must be confirmed for each application.

Q: What is the significance of the backset spacing difference in HARTING parts?

A: Backset spacing (0.409" for HARTING vs. 0.590" for Amphenol) defines the distance from the connector mounting face to the contact plane. This dimensional difference affects PCB layout and connector positioning. HARTING parts are not mechanically interchangeable with the original part in existing PCB designs without layout modification.

Q: Why is RoHS compliance important for selecting a substitute?

A: RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance is a regulatory requirement in many markets and industries. The original FCC17E09PC400 is RoHS non-compliant. For new designs, production, or applications subject to RoHS regulations, the FCE17 series or HARTING alternatives (both RoHS/ROHS3 compliant) are required selections.

Q: Can I use a HARTING part if my application requires the exact backset spacing of the original?

A: No. The HARTING parts have a backset spacing of 0.409" (10.40mm) compared to the original 0.590" (14.99mm). This dimensional difference makes them mechanically incompatible with existing PCB designs or connector housings designed for the original spacing. The FCE17 series maintains the original 0.590" backset spacing and is the appropriate choice for direct mechanical replacement.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS and ROHS3 compliance?

A: Both designations indicate compliance with RoHS regulations. ROHS3 refers to RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU (recast), the current regulatory standard. RoHS Compliant indicates compliance with RoHS requirements; ROHS3 Compliant specifies compliance with the latest directive version. Both are acceptable for regulatory purposes.

Q: Are the contact finish specifications identical across all substitutes?

A: No. The original FCC17E09PC400 and all FCE17 variants specify Gold contact finish with 15.0µin (0.38µm) thickness. The HARTING parts do not specify contact finish in the provided parameters. Contact finish specifications should be confirmed from detailed HARTING datasheets for applications requiring specific contact material properties.

Q: What is the significance of the contact form difference (Machined vs. Stamped)?

A: Contact form affects manufacturing process, cost, and contact reliability characteristics. Machined contacts (original part) are individually formed and typically provide higher precision and consistency. Stamped contacts (HARTING parts) are mass-produced from sheet material and may have different contact force characteristics and wear properties. For applications with specific contact force or reliability requirements, contact form differences should be evaluated.

Q: Can I mix substitute parts from different manufacturers in the same application?

A: Mixing Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants with HARTING parts in the same application is not recommended due to dimensional differences (backset spacing), contact material differences, and contact form differences. Consistency within a single design is required to ensure uniform electrical and mechanical performance.

Q: What inventory levels are available for each substitute?

A: Current inventory levels are: FCC17E09PC400 (1095 pcs), FCE17E09PC400 (1028 pcs), FCE17E09PC410 (1084 pcs), FCE17E09PC440 (760 pcs), FCE17E09PC450 (997 pcs), FCE17E09PC480 (862 pcs), FCE17E09PC490 (1092 pcs), FCE17E09PC4D0 (786 pcs), FCE17E09PC4E0 (842 pcs), 09651626815 (829 pcs), 09651626816 (911 pcs). Inventory levels are subject to change and should be confirmed at time of procurement.
