Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HD-20 Series (5745988-6, 5747836-6, 747836-6):

These three TE Connectivity parts provide direct functional equivalence to the FCE17E09SC6DB. All three maintain the 9 position D-Sub receptacle configuration with through-hole right-angle solder termination. The TE Connectivity substitutes offer higher current ratings (6A versus 5A) and extended operating temperature ranges (-55°C to 105°C versus -40°C to 85°C), providing enhanced performance margins. Parts 5747836-6 and 747836-6 include board lock and ground strap features. Compliance status includes ROHS3 certification (5745988-6, 5747836-6) or not applicable designation (747836-6). All three parts are currently in active production status.

Mercury United Electronics 626 Series (626-009-262-032, 626-009-662-032):

The Mercury United Electronics parts provide D-Sub 9 position receptacle equivalence with board edge and through-hole right-angle mounting options. These connectors feature nickel-plated steel shells and include board lock, mounting brackets, and shielding. Current rating is specified at 3A per contact, which is lower than the FCE17E09SC6DB (5A). Operating temperature range extends to -55°C with an upper limit of 85°C. Both Mercury parts carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status. These parts are suitable for applications where shielding and board edge mounting are required.

Selection Criteria:

For direct replacement requiring equivalent or enhanced electrical performance, the TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HD-20 series parts (5745988-6, 5747836-6, 747836-6) are preferred due to higher current ratings and extended temperature ranges. For applications requiring shielding and board edge mounting capability, the Mercury United Electronics 626 series parts are appropriate, with consideration given to the lower current rating per contact.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17E09SC6DB be directly replaced with any of the listed substitute parts?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain the same D-Sub 9 position receptacle configuration, through-hole right-angle mounting, and solder termination. Direct mechanical and electrical compatibility is established for all identified substitutes.

Q: What is the primary difference between the TE Connectivity and Mercury United Electronics substitutes?

A: The TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HD-20 series (5745988-6, 5747836-6, 747836-6) provides higher current ratings (6A) and extended operating temperature ranges (-55°C to 105°C). The Mercury United Electronics 626 series (626-009-262-032, 626-009-662-032) includes shielding and board edge mounting options but specifies lower current ratings (3A per contact) and narrower temperature range (-55°C to 85°C).

Q: Are there packaging differences between the substitute parts?

A: Yes. The FCE17E09SC6DB is supplied without specified packaging. TE Connectivity part 5745988-6 is supplied in Tray packaging. TE Connectivity parts 5747836-6 and 747836-6 are supplied in Tube packaging. Mercury United Electronics parts 626-009-262-032 and 626-009-662-032 are supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging selection depends on assembly process requirements and inventory management.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same compliance standards as the FCE17E09SC6DB?

A: All substitute parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity levels. RoHS compliance status varies: the FCE17E09SC6DB is RoHS Compliant; TE Connectivity parts 5745988-6 and 5747836-6 are ROHS3 Compliant; TE Connectivity part 747836-6 has not applicable status; Mercury United Electronics parts are ROHS3 Compliant. All parts are suitable for applications requiring these compliance certifications.

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

A: The FCE17E09SC6DB specifies 15.0µin (0.38µm) gold contact finish thickness. TE Connectivity substitutes specify 30.0µin (0.76µm), providing doubled contact finish thickness. Mercury part 626-009-262-032 specifies flash thickness, while 626-009-662-032 specifies 30.0µin (0.76µm). Thicker gold plating provides enhanced wear resistance and contact durability in high-cycle mating applications.

Q: Which substitute part is recommended for applications requiring extended temperature operation?

A: The TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HD-20 series parts (5745988-6, 5747836-6, 747836-6) support operating temperatures from -55°C to 105°C, compared to the FCE17E09SC6DB range of -40°C to 85°C. These parts are suitable for applications requiring operation at temperatures below -40°C or above 85°C.

Q: Are the Mercury United Electronics parts suitable for high-current applications?

A: The Mercury United Electronics 626 series parts specify 3A per contact current rating, which is lower than the FCE17E09SC6DB (5A) and TE Connectivity substitutes (6A). These parts are suitable for signal-level applications with lower current requirements. For applications requiring 5A or higher current capacity, TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HD-20 series parts are recommended.

Q: What additional features do the substitute parts provide?

A: TE Connectivity parts 5747836-6 and 747836-6 include board lock and ground strap features. Mercury United Electronics parts include board lock, mounting brackets, and shielding. The FCE17E09SC6DB includes filter and mounting brackets. Feature selection depends on specific application requirements for mechanical retention, grounding, and electromagnetic shielding.
