Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series):

The FCE17E09PC4DB, FCE17E09PC40B, FCE17E09PC41B, FCE17E09PC44B, FCE17E09PC45B, FCE17E09PC48B, FCE17E09PC49B, and FCE17E09PC4EB connectors are direct functional equivalents to the FCC17E09PC4DB. These parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications including 9-position configuration, 5A current rating, 0.590" backset spacing, through-hole right-angle solder termination, and -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range.

The primary advantage of these FCE17 series substitutes is their active product status and RoHS compliance. All FCE17 variants are currently manufactured and available in higher inventory quantities (661 to 1023 pieces), providing superior supply chain reliability compared to the obsolete FCC17E09PC4DB.

Secondary Substitutes (HARTING 09651626815 and 09651626816):

The HARTING 09651626815 and 09651626816 connectors provide functional substitution with notable parameter variations. These parts maintain the 9-position D-Sub plug configuration, through-hole right-angle solder termination, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. However, they differ in the following specifications:

Backset spacing: 0.409" (10.40mm) versus 0.590" (14.99mm) on the original part
Current rating: 6.5A versus 5A
Operating temperature range: -55°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 85°C
Contact material: Copper Alloy versus Phosphor Bronze
Flange feature: Housing/Shell (M3 or 4-40) versus Board Side (4-40)
Dielectric material: Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT), Polyester, Glass Filled versus Thermoplastic

These differences indicate that HARTING parts are not direct mechanical equivalents and require board layout verification before implementation.

Compliance Considerations:

For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the FCE17 series substitutes are recommended. The original FCC17E09PC4DB is RoHS non-compliant. All FCE17 variants are RoHS compliant, and HARTING parts are ROHS3 compliant.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17E09PC4DB directly replace the FCC17E09PC4DB without board modifications?

A: Yes. The FCE17E09PC4DB maintains identical mounting dimensions, backset spacing (0.590"), flange configuration (Board Side 4-40), and solder termination footprint. No board layout changes are required for this substitution.

Q: What is the difference between the various FCE17 part numbers (PC4DB, PC40B, PC41B, PC44B, PC45B, PC48B, PC49B, PC4EB)?

A: The provided data specifies only the part numbers without detailed documentation of the specific differences between these variants. All variants share identical electrical and mechanical parameters as listed in the parameter comparison table. Consult the manufacturer's detailed specifications or contact Amphenol ICC for clarification on the specific design variations indicated by the suffix codes.

Q: Are the HARTING 09651626815 and 09651626816 connectors suitable replacements?

A: The HARTING connectors are functionally similar but not mechanically equivalent. The backset spacing differs (0.409" versus 0.590"), requiring board layout verification. The flange feature differs (Housing/Shell versus Board Side), which may affect mounting compatibility. These parts are suitable only if the application can accommodate the dimensional and mounting differences.

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

A: Backset spacing defines the distance from the connector mounting face to the rear of the connector body. The HARTING parts have a backset spacing of 0.409" compared to 0.590" on the original and Amphenol FCE17 parts. This difference affects the connector's protrusion depth into the enclosure or panel and may impact mechanical clearance and board layout. Verify that the application can accommodate this dimensional change before substitution.

Q: Is the higher current rating (6.5A) of HARTING parts a benefit?

A: The higher current rating of HARTING parts (6.5A versus 5A) provides additional capacity but does not constitute an advantage for applications designed for 5A operation. The original design specifications should be maintained unless the application requirements have changed. Using a higher-rated component does not improve performance in a 5A application.

Q: What does RoHS compliance mean for this connector?

A: RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance indicates that the connector does not contain restricted materials including lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls, or polybrominated diphenyl ethers above specified thresholds. RoHS compliance is required for many applications, particularly in consumer electronics and regulated industries. The FCE17 series substitutes are RoHS compliant, while the original FCC17E09PC4DB is not.

Q: Can I mix FCC17 and FCE17 series connectors in the same assembly?

A: Yes, provided the application does not require uniform RoHS compliance across all components. Both series maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications for the 9-position configuration. However, for consistency and supply chain management, standardizing on a single series is recommended.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating?

A: Both the original FCC17E09PC4DB and all substitute parts carry an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. These connectors do not require special moisture control during storage, handling, or assembly.

Q: Are there any certifications or standards applicable to these connectors?

A: All parts listed carry a UL94 V-0 material flammability rating, indicating compliance with UL94 flammability standards. The HARTING parts are ROHS3 compliant. Consult the manufacturer's documentation for additional certifications such as IEC, MIL, or industry-specific standards applicable to your application.
