FCC17E09SC250 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FCC17E09SC250 is a 9-position D-Sub receptacle connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This through-hole, right-angle solder-terminated connector features female sockets with gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts and a tin-plated steel shell. The connector is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of equivalent and substitute parts for ongoing design support and procurement.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FCC17E09SC250 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Primary Equivalence Criteria:

Connector type: D-Sub receptacle, female sockets
Number of positions: 9
Number of rows: 2
Shell size and layout: 1 (DE, E)
Mounting type: Through hole, right angle
Termination method: Solder
Current rating: 5A
Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 85°C

Contact material: Phosphor bronze
Flange feature: Housing/shell (unthreaded)
Backset spacing: 0.590" (14.99mm)
Material flammability rating: UL94 V-0

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Category 1: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (Active Status, RoHS Compliant) Parts FCE17E09SC250, FCE17E09SC200, FCE17E09SC210, FCE17E09SC240, FCE17E09SC280, FCE17E09SC290, FCE17E09SC2D0, and FCE17E09SC2E0 meet all primary equivalence criteria. These parts differ only in voltage rating specification (not provided in substitute data) and dielectric material composition (thermoplastic with glass fill versus thermoplastic alone). All are active products with RoHS compliance.

Category 2: HARTING Series (Active Status, ROHS3 Compliant) Parts 09661136602 and 09661526610 share the core D-Sub 9-position receptacle configuration with right-angle through-hole mounting and solder termination. These parts differ in backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590"), current rating (6.5A versus 5A), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C versus -40°C ~ 85°C), contact finish specification, and flange feature design (4-40 threaded or unthreaded). Contact form is stamped rather than machined, and dielectric material composition differs.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series

The FCE17E09SC250, FCE17E09SC200, FCE17E09SC210, FCE17E09SC240, FCE17E09SC280, FCE17E09SC290, FCE17E09SC2D0, and FCE17E09SC2E0 connectors are the preferred substitutes for the obsolete FCC17E09SC250. These parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications across all critical parameters: 9-position D-Sub receptacle configuration, through-hole right-angle mounting, solder termination, 5A current rating, -40°C to 85°C operating temperature, steel tin-plated shell, phosphor bronze contacts, and 0.590" backset spacing. All FCE17 variants are active products with RoHS compliance, addressing the regulatory limitations of the original part. The FCE17 series provides direct form-fit-function compatibility with existing designs.

Secondary Recommendation: HARTING 09661526610

The HARTING 09661526610 provides functional D-Sub 9-position receptacle capability with through-hole right-angle solder termination. This part is active and ROHS3 compliant. However, the 09661526610 differs from the FCC17E09SC250 in backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590"), which affects PCB layout compatibility. The higher current rating (6.5A) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C) provide enhanced performance margins. This part is suitable for applications where PCB layout can accommodate the reduced backset spacing and where the enhanced thermal and current capabilities are beneficial.

Not Recommended: HARTING 09661136602

The HARTING 09661136602 features a 4-40 threaded flange, which differs from the unthreaded housing/shell design of the FCC17E09SC250. Additionally, the reduced backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590") creates PCB layout incompatibility. This part is suitable only for applications with specific threaded mounting requirements and modified PCB designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17E09SC250 be used as a direct replacement for the FCC17E09SC250?

A: Yes. The FCE17E09SC250 maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters: 9-position D-Sub receptacle, through-hole right-angle mounting, solder termination, 5A current rating, -40°C to 85°C operating temperature, steel tin-plated shell, phosphor bronze contacts, and 0.590" backset spacing. The FCE17E09SC250 is form-fit-function compatible with existing designs and provides the additional benefit of RoHS compliance.

Q: What is the difference between the various FCE17E09SC2XX variants?

A: The FCE17E09SC250, FCE17E09SC200, FCE17E09SC210, FCE17E09SC240, FCE17E09SC280, FCE17E09SC290, FCE17E09SC2D0, and FCE17E09SC2E0 connectors share identical mechanical and electrical specifications. The suffix designations (250, 200, 210, 240, 280, 290, 2D0, 2E0) indicate internal voltage rating or material composition variations not specified in the provided data. All variants are functionally equivalent for the FCC17E09SC250 replacement application.

Q: Why is the HARTING 09661526610 not recommended as a primary substitute?

A: The HARTING 09661526610 differs in backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590"), which affects PCB hole positioning and layout compatibility. While the connector maintains the 9-position D-Sub receptacle configuration and solder termination, the reduced backset spacing requires PCB redesign. The part is suitable only for applications where PCB layout modification is acceptable.

Q: What is backset spacing and why does it matter?

A: Backset spacing is the distance from the rear mounting surface of the connector to the centerline of the contact mounting holes. The FCC17E09SC250 specifies 0.590" (14.99mm) backset spacing. This dimension is critical for PCB design because it determines the position of mounting holes relative to the connector's rear face. Substitutes with different backset spacing (such as the HARTING parts at 0.409") require PCB redesign and are not form-fit compatible.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series parts are RoHS compliant. The HARTING parts (09661136602 and 09661526610) are ROHS3 compliant. The original FCC17E09SC250 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations, the FCE17 series or HARTING parts are required.

Q: Can the HARTING 09661136602 be used in place of the FCC17E09SC250?

A: No. The HARTING 09661136602 features a 4-40 threaded flange, whereas the FCC17E09SC250 has an unthreaded housing/shell design. Additionally, the backset spacing differs (0.409" versus 0.590"), requiring PCB redesign. This part is suitable only for applications with specific threaded mounting requirements and modified PCB layouts.

Q: What is the current rating difference between the FCC17E09SC250 and HARTING substitutes?

A: The FCC17E09SC250 and all Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants are rated for 5A. The HARTING 09661136602 and 09661526610 are rated for 6.5A. The higher HARTING rating provides additional current-carrying capacity but does not affect compatibility for applications designed for 5A operation.

Q: Do the substitute parts support the same operating temperature range?

A: The FCC17E09SC250 and Amphenol ICC FCE17 series operate from -40°C to 85°C. The HARTING parts (09661136602 and 09661526610) operate from -55°C to 125°C, providing an extended temperature range. For applications within the -40°C to 85°C range, both part families are suitable. For applications requiring extended temperature operation, HARTING parts offer enhanced capability.

Q: What is the contact material difference between Amphenol and HARTING substitutes?

A: The FCC17E09SC250 and Amphenol ICC FCE17 series use phosphor bronze contacts. The HARTING 09661136602 and 09661526610 use copper alloy contacts. Both materials provide reliable electrical performance and are suitable for signal-level applications. The contact finish specifications differ, with Amphenol parts specifying gold plating and HARTING parts not specifying contact finish in the provided data.
