FCE17E09SB2DB D-Sub 9 Position Receptacle Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FCE17E09SB2DB is a 9 position D-Sub receptacle connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This right-angle, through-hole solder connector features female sockets with a 2-row configuration in shell size 1 (DE, E). The connector is actively produced and suitable for applications requiring signal-level connectivity with 5A current capacity per contact.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified based on matching core electrical and mechanical parameters: connector style (D-Sub), type (receptacle with female sockets), position count (9), row configuration (2), shell size (1/DE/E), mounting method (right-angle through-hole), termination type (solder), and material flammability rating (UL94 V-0). Substitutes may vary in shell finish, contact finish thickness, backset spacing, operating temperature range, and flange features while maintaining functional compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All identified substitute parts maintain active product status and comply with UL94 V-0 flammability requirements. Selection among substitutes should be based on the following engineering considerations:

Temperature Range Requirements: The FCE17E09SB2DB operates within -40°C to 85°C. Substitutes offering extended temperature ranges (-55°C to 105°C or -55°C to 125°C) provide additional operational margin. The D09S13 series (D09S13A4GL00LF, D09S13A4GV00LF, D09S13A4GX00LF, D09S13A4PA00LF, D09S13A6GX00LF, D09S13A6RX12LF) and TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HDP-20 series (5745438-1, 5745438-4) support extended temperature operation suitable for demanding thermal environments.

Voltage Rating: The FCE17E09SB2DB does not specify a voltage rating. Substitutes with defined voltage ratings (125V for TE Connectivity parts, 300V for Amphenol ICC Delta D series) provide explicit electrical performance boundaries. Applications requiring voltage isolation or high-voltage signal integrity benefit from parts with specified voltage ratings.

Current Capacity: TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HDP-20 series parts (5745438-1, 5745438-4) provide 6A current capacity per contact, exceeding the 5A specification of the FCE17E09SB2DB. This increased capacity accommodates higher power signal applications.

Backset Spacing Variation: Backset spacing ranges from 0.318" (NorComp 182-009-213R531) to 0.454" (TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HDP-20). The FCE17E09SB2DB specifies 0.405" (10.29mm). Amphenol ICC Delta D series parts specify 0.409" (10.40mm), providing the closest dimensional match. Significant backset spacing differences may require PCB layout modifications.

Compliance Status: All substitutes maintain RoHS compliance. Amphenol ICC Delta D series parts (D09S13A4GL00LF, D09S13A4GV00LF, D09S13A4GX00LF, D09S13A4PA00LF, D09S13A6GX00LF, D09S13A6RX12LF) carry ROHS3 or RoHS Compliant status with REACH Affected or REACH Unaffected designations. TE Connectivity parts carry ROHS3 Compliant status with REACH Unaffected designation. NorComp 182-009-213R531 carries ROHS3 Compliant status with REACH Unaffected designation.

Termination Method: The FCE17E09SB2DB uses standard solder termination. D09S13A6RX12LF uses solder paste termination, suitable for automated assembly processes. This variant is appropriate for high-volume manufacturing environments.

Flange Feature Compatibility: Flange features vary among substitutes (Unthreaded, 4-40, M3, Female Screwlock). Selection depends on mating connector specifications and mechanical mounting requirements. The FCE17E09SB2DB features an unthreaded housing/shell flange. Substitutes with threaded flanges (4-40, M3) provide mechanical locking capability for applications requiring secure mating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I substitute the FCE17E09SB2DB with any of the listed parts?

A: All listed parts are functionally equivalent as 9-position D-Sub receptacles with female sockets, right-angle through-hole solder termination, and UL94 V-0 flammability compliance. However, differences in backset spacing, operating temperature range, voltage rating, and flange features may affect compatibility with existing PCB layouts and mating connectors. Verify dimensional and electrical specifications against your application requirements before substitution.

Q: What is the significance of backset spacing differences?

A: Backset spacing is the distance from the rear of the connector shell to the solder cup centerline. The FCE17E09SB2DB specifies 0.405" (10.29mm). Substitutes range from 0.318" to 0.454". Significant differences require PCB layout modifications to accommodate the connector position. Amphenol ICC Delta D series parts (0.409" / 10.40mm) provide minimal spacing variation and are preferred for direct PCB substitution.

Q: Are there packaging differences among the substitutes?

A: Yes. The FCE17E09SB2DB packaging is not specified. Substitutes are available in Tray, Bulk, and Cut Tape (CT) packaging. Tray packaging is standard for component distribution. Bulk packaging is suitable for high-volume applications. Cut Tape packaging is used for automated pick-and-place assembly. Select packaging based on your procurement and assembly process requirements.

Q: What does "solder paste" termination mean in D09S13A6RX12LF?

A: Solder paste termination indicates the connector is designed for reflow soldering processes used in automated surface-mount assembly. Standard solder termination (wave soldering or manual soldering) is used for through-hole assembly. D09S13A6RX12LF is appropriate for high-volume manufacturing with automated assembly equipment.

Q: How do I select between Amphenol ICC Delta D series variants?

A: Delta D series variants differ in flange features and contact finish thickness. D09S13A4GL00LF features M3 threaded housing flange. D09S13A4GV00LF features female screwlock (4-40) mating side flange. D09S13A4GX00LF features 4-40 threaded housing flange. D09S13A4PA00LF features unthreaded housing flange (closest to FCE17E09SB2DB). D09S13A6GX00LF and D09S13A6RX12LF feature 4-40 threaded housing flange with enhanced contact finish thickness (30.0µin). Select based on your mating connector flange type and mechanical mounting requirements.

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

A: RoHS Compliant indicates compliance with the original Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive. ROHS3 Compliant indicates compliance with RoHS 3 (Directive 2015/863/EU), which includes additional restricted substances. ROHS3 Compliant parts meet more stringent environmental standards. Both designations are acceptable for most applications; ROHS3 Compliant parts are preferred for applications with strict environmental compliance requirements.

Q: Can I use a substitute with a higher current rating (6A vs. 5A)?

A: Yes. TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HDP-20 series parts (5745438-1, 5745438-4) provide 6A current capacity. Using a higher-rated component does not degrade performance in applications requiring 5A or less. Higher current rating provides additional design margin for applications with variable or peak current demands.

Q: What does "Contact Finish Thickness: Flash" mean?

A: Flash contact finish indicates a very thin gold plating layer applied to the contact surface. Flash finish provides corrosion protection and electrical conductivity with minimal material thickness. The FCE17E09SB2DB specifies 15.0µin (0.38µm) contact finish thickness, which is thicker than flash finish. Thicker contact finishes (15.0µin or 30.0µin) provide enhanced durability and contact reliability for high-cycle mating applications.

Q: Are there REACH compliance differences among substitutes?

A: Yes. REACH status varies: REACH Affected, REACH Unaffected, or Vendor Undefined. REACH Affected indicates the part contains substances of very high concern (SVHC) requiring registration. REACH Unaffected indicates the part does not contain SVHC. Vendor Undefined indicates REACH status is not specified by the manufacturer. For applications with strict REACH compliance requirements, select parts with REACH Unaffected designation.

Q: What is the NorComp 182-009-213R531 "Panel Mount" feature?

A: Panel Mount indicates the connector includes provisions for direct mounting to a panel or enclosure front face, in addition to through-hole PCB mounting. This feature provides mechanical stability for applications where the connector is exposed to external mechanical stress. The FCE17E09SB2DB does not specify panel mount capability.
