• Number of Positions: 9
• Number of Rows: 2
• Shell Size, Connector Layout: 1 (DE, E)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle
• Termination: Solder
• Contact Finish: Gold
• Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)

Allowable Parameter Variations: Substitute parts may differ in the following parameters while maintaining functional equivalence:

• Shell Material Finish (Steel Tin Plated vs. Steel Nickel Plated)
• Contact Finish Thickness (15.0µin vs. 30.0µin vs. Flash)
• Current Rating (5A vs. 6A vs. 3A per Contact)
• Operating Temperature Range (wider ranges acceptable)
• Flange Feature Type (Board Side vs. Mating Side vs. Housing/Shell)
• Backset Spacing (minor variations within tolerance)
• Packaging Format (Tray, Tube, Bulk)
• RoHS Compliance Status (RoHS Compliant vs. ROHS3 Compliant)

Five substitute parts meet these criteria and are listed in the following parameter comparison table.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

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

The three TE Connectivity substitute parts from the AMPLIMITE HD-20 series provide direct functional equivalence to the FCE17E09SC6EB. These connectors maintain identical shell size, position count, mounting configuration, and termination method. The TE Connectivity parts offer enhanced current rating (6A vs. 5A) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 105°C vs. -40°C to 85°C), providing broader application compatibility.

Part 5745988-6 is packaged in Tray format with 1546 units in stock. Part 5747836-6 is packaged in Tube format with 1173 units in stock and includes Board Lock feature. Part 747836-6 is packaged in Tube format with 1083 units in stock and includes Board Lock and Ground Strap features. All three maintain ROHS3 or equivalent compliance status.

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

The Mercury United Electronics 626 series connectors provide functional substitution with specific design variations. These parts support Board Edge mounting in addition to Through Hole and Right Angle configurations, and include integrated shielding and mounting brackets. The Mercury parts operate at 3A per contact current rating and maintain the same -55°C to 85°C operating temperature range as the main part's lower bound.

Part 626-009-262-032 features Flash contact finish thickness with 827 units in stock. Part 626-009-662-032 features 30.0µin contact finish thickness with 865 units in stock. Both Mercury parts are ROHS3 compliant and packaged in Bulk format.

Compliance and Product Status

All substitute parts maintain active product status with current manufacturing availability. The TE Connectivity parts carry ROHS3 compliance or equivalent RoHS status. The Mercury parts carry ROHS3 compliance. All parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level, matching the main part specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the TE Connectivity 5745988-6 directly replace the FCE17E09SC6EB in existing designs?

A: The 5745988-6 maintains identical connector style, position count, shell size, mounting type, and termination method. The higher current rating (6A vs. 5A) and extended temperature range (-55°C to 105°C) provide enhanced capability. Packaging differs (Tray vs. unspecified), which affects procurement and assembly processes but not electrical or mechanical function.

Q: What is the significance of the backset spacing difference between TE Connectivity (0.590") and Mercury (0.584") parts?

A: Backset spacing defines the distance from the connector mounting surface to the contact plane. The 0.006" (0.15mm) difference between TE Connectivity and Mercury parts represents a tolerance variation. This difference may affect mating depth and connector engagement characteristics in applications with tight mechanical tolerances.

Q: Are the Mercury 626 series parts suitable for applications requiring the FCE17E09SC6EB current rating?

A: The Mercury 626 series parts are rated at 3A per contact, which is lower than the FCE17E09SC6EB specification of 5A. These parts are suitable only for applications where the actual current draw per contact does not exceed 3A. System design review is necessary to confirm compatibility with current requirements.

Q: What packaging options are available for substitute parts?

A: Substitute parts are available in three packaging formats: Tray (5745988-6), Tube (5747836-6, 747836-6), and Bulk (626-009-262-032, 626-009-662-032). Packaging selection affects inventory management, assembly automation compatibility, and component handling procedures. Tray and Tube formats support automated pick-and-place assembly, while Bulk format requires manual handling.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same environmental compliance standards as the FCE17E09SC6EB?

A: All substitute parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level. RoHS compliance status varies: TE Connectivity parts carry ROHS3 or RoHS Compliant status, and Mercury parts carry ROHS3 Compliant status. All parts are compliant with current regulatory requirements for their respective manufacturers.

Q: What are the key differences between the three TE Connectivity substitute options?

A: All three TE Connectivity parts (5745988-6, 5747836-6, 747836-6) share identical electrical specifications and operating parameters. Differences are packaging format (Tray vs. Tube) and integrated features. The 5747836-6 and 747836-6 include Board Lock feature. The 747836-6 additionally includes Ground Strap feature. Selection depends on assembly process requirements and system design specifications.

Q: Can Mercury 626 series shielding provide additional EMI protection compared to the FCE17E09SC6EB?

A: The Mercury 626 series parts include integrated shielding feature, while the FCE17E09SC6EB specification does not indicate shielding. Shielding provides electromagnetic interference (EMI) attenuation. System design requirements determine whether shielding is necessary. If EMI protection is required, Mercury parts offer this integrated capability.
