FCE17E09PC4D0 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FCE17E09PC4D0 is a 9-position D-Sub plug connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This male pins connector features right-angle solder termination and is designed for through-hole mounting applications. The connector is currently in active product status with 786 pieces available in inventory.

D-Sub connectors of this specification are essential components in applications requiring standardized signal transmission interfaces. Alternative equivalent parts become necessary when addressing supply chain constraints, specific manufacturing certifications, or operational environment requirements that differ from the primary component's rated parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FCE17E09PC4D0 with equivalent parts is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Connector style (D-Sub)
• Connector type (Plug, Male Pins)
• Number of positions (9)
• Number of rows (2)
• Shell size and connector layout (1 / DE, E)
• Mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle)
• Termination method (Solder)
• Current rating (5A)
• Backset spacing (0.590" / 14.99mm)
• Flange feature (Housing/Shell 4-40)
• Contact type (Signal)
• Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)

The substitute part 183-009-113R171 from NorComp Inc. meets all mandatory matching parameters. Variations in shell finish material (tin plated versus nickel plated), contact material composition (phosphor bronze versus brass), contact finish thickness specification, dielectric material formulation, and operating temperature range do not prevent functional substitution when the mandatory parameters align.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the FCE17E09PC4D0 and 183-009-113R171 are active product status components with full regulatory compliance. Selection between these parts is based on specific application requirements and environmental constraints.

FCE17E09PC4D0 (Amphenol ICC) is appropriate for applications operating within the -40°C to 85°C temperature range. This part features tin-plated steel shell construction and phosphor bronze contacts with specified gold plating thickness of 15.0µin. The component carries RoHS compliance certification and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

183-009-113R171 (NorComp Inc.) is appropriate for applications requiring extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C) or where nickel-plated shell construction is preferred. This part features brass contacts with flash gold plating and polyamide dielectric material. The component carries ROHS3 compliance certification and is not subject to moisture sensitivity limitations.

Both parts satisfy identical electrical and mechanical interface requirements, including 9-position configuration, 5A current rating, 0.590" backset spacing, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. Selection should be based on operating temperature requirements, shell finish material preference, and regulatory certification alignment with end-application specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 183-009-113R171 directly replace the FCE17E09PC4D0 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors share identical connector style, type, position count, row configuration, shell size, mounting type, termination method, current rating, and backset spacing. The physical and electrical interface characteristics are equivalent, enabling direct substitution in circuit board layouts and mating connector applications.

Q: What are the differences in operating temperature capability?

A: The FCE17E09PC4D0 operates from -40°C to 85°C, while the 183-009-113R171 operates from -55°C to 105°C. Applications requiring operation below -40°C or above 85°C must use the NorComp part. Applications within the -40°C to 85°C range can use either part.

Q: How do the shell finish materials differ?

A: The FCE17E09PC4D0 features tin-plated steel shell construction. The 183-009-113R171 features nickel-plated steel shell construction. Both finishes provide corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity. Selection depends on application-specific environmental exposure and material compatibility requirements.

Q: What is the difference in contact material composition?

A: The FCE17E09PC4D0 uses phosphor bronze contacts. The 183-009-113R171 uses brass contacts. Both materials are suitable for signal transmission applications with 5A current rating. Contact material selection does not affect functional compatibility in standard D-Sub applications.

Q: Are there differences in regulatory compliance?

A: The FCE17E09PC4D0 carries RoHS compliance certification. The 183-009-113R171 carries ROHS3 compliance certification. Both parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and carry identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications. ROHS3 represents an updated regulatory framework and does not indicate incompatibility with RoHS-compliant applications.

Q: What is the significance of contact finish thickness specifications?

A: The FCE17E09PC4D0 specifies 15.0µin (0.38µm) gold plating thickness. The 183-009-113R171 specifies flash gold plating. Both provide adequate contact surface for signal transmission and mating durability. Flash plating represents a thinner application suitable for signal-level applications where current density is not a limiting factor.

Q: How does packaging affect component selection?

A: The FCE17E09PC4D0 is supplied in standard packaging. The 183-009-113R171 is supplied in tray packaging. Packaging format does not affect component functionality or electrical characteristics. Selection should be based on inventory management, handling procedures, and storage requirements specific to manufacturing operations.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in new designs?

A: Yes. Both parts meet identical D-Sub connector specifications for 9-position, male pin, right-angle solder termination applications. New designs can specify either part number based on operating temperature requirements, preferred shell finish material, and regulatory certification alignment with end-product specifications.
