L17HTHCS4F1C D-Sub High Density 62 Position Receptacle Connector

Part Overview

The L17HTHCS4F1C is a 62 position D-Sub high density receptacle connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This connector features female sockets, right angle through-hole mounting, and solder termination. The part is actively produced and maintains a stock inventory of 1101 pieces in new original condition.

D-Sub high density connectors are essential for applications requiring compact, multi-pin signal transmission in industrial, telecommunications, and data processing equipment. Substitute parts become necessary when original manufacturer availability is limited, when alternative packaging formats are required, or when design specifications permit operation within broader environmental or electrical parameter ranges.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the L17HTHCS4F1C are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional and mechanical compatibility:

Core Compatibility Parameters:

• Connector style, type, and position count (D-Sub high density, receptacle, 62 positions)
• Physical configuration (3 rows, shell size 4 high density layout)
• Mounting method and orientation (through hole, right angle)
• Termination type (solder)
• Flange design and mating interface (female screwlock 4-40)
• Backset spacing (0.350" / 8.89mm)
• Contact material (copper alloy)
• Board lock feature presence

Allowable Variations in Substitutes:

• Manufacturer identity (Amphenol ICC to HARTING)
• Shell material finish (tin plated to nickel plated)
• Contact finish specification (gold to gold or gold-palladium)
• Contact finish thickness (flash to 30.0µin)
• Dielectric material composition (thermoplastic glass-filled to PBT polyester glass-filled)
• Packaging format (tray to bulk or tray)
• Current rating (3A to 2A, where lower rating is acceptable for signal applications)
• Operating temperature range (wider to narrower range acceptable)
• Voltage rating specification (300V to unspecified, where unspecified does not preclude use)
• RoHS compliance generation (RoHS Compliant to ROHS3 Compliant)
• Color designation (unspecified to black)

The two HARTING substitute parts (09564525613 and 09564527613) maintain all critical mechanical and electrical parameters while offering alternative sourcing options with different packaging and material specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (L17HTHCS4F1C): The L17HTHCS4F1C remains the preferred selection for applications requiring the full operating temperature range of -55°C to 150°C and the 3A current rating. This part carries active product status with RoHS compliance and maintains the highest inventory availability at 1101 pieces. The tin-plated steel shell with flash gold contact finish meets standard signal transmission requirements.

Substitute Selection Criteria:

09564527613 (HARTING) - Recommended Substitute: This part is the preferred substitute when tray packaging is required and operating conditions fall within -40°C to 85°C. It maintains identical mechanical configuration and board lock features. The nickel-plated steel shell provides equivalent corrosion resistance to tin plating. Current inventory of 1209 pieces exceeds the primary part. ROHS3 compliance exceeds RoHS compliance requirements. The 2A current rating is acceptable for signal-level applications where the primary part's 3A rating is not required.

09564525613 (HARTING) - Alternative Substitute: This part is suitable when bulk packaging is acceptable and operating conditions fall within -40°C to 85°C. It provides identical mechanical and electrical functionality to 09564527613 with the addition of specified gold or gold-palladium contact finish (30.0µin thickness). Bulk packaging may be advantageous for high-volume production environments. Current inventory of 746 pieces supports medium-volume requirements.

Compliance Considerations: All three parts meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity specifications. The HARTING substitutes carry ROHS3 compliance, which supersedes the primary part's RoHS compliance designation. REACH unaffected status on HARTING parts indicates no substance of very high concern (SVHC) presence.

Temperature and Current Derating: Applications operating above 85°C or below -40°C require the primary L17HTHCS4F1C part. Applications requiring sustained current above 2A per contact require the primary part. For signal-level applications within the -40°C to 85°C range with current requirements at or below 2A, either HARTING substitute is functionally equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HARTING 09564527613 directly replace the Amphenol ICC L17HTHCS4F1C in existing designs?

A: Yes, for applications operating within -40°C to 85°C with current requirements at or below 2A per contact. The mechanical interface, pin configuration, mounting method, and board lock features are identical. The nickel-plated shell and unspecified contact finish do not affect signal transmission performance in standard applications.

Q: What is the difference between the two HARTING substitute parts?

A: The primary differences are packaging format and contact finish specification. Part 09564527613 is supplied in tray packaging with unspecified contact finish, while 09564525613 is supplied in bulk packaging with specified gold or gold-palladium contact finish at 30.0µin thickness. Both maintain identical mechanical configuration and electrical ratings.

Q: Why does the HARTING substitute have a lower current rating (2A vs. 3A)?

A: The 2A rating on HARTING parts reflects the manufacturer's specification for signal-level applications. For D-Sub high density connectors used in signal transmission, the 2A rating is standard and sufficient. The 3A rating on the Amphenol ICC part may reflect different testing or application assumptions. For power distribution applications requiring 3A per contact, the primary L17HTHCS4F1C part is required.

Q: Are the shell material finishes (tin vs. nickel) interchangeable?

A: Yes, for standard signal applications. Both tin plating and nickel plating provide equivalent corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity for D-Sub connector shells. The choice between them is typically driven by manufacturing process, cost, and specific environmental requirements not specified in this comparison.

Q: What does "flash" gold contact finish mean compared to 30.0µin thickness?

A: Flash gold is a very thin gold plating applied to provide corrosion resistance and solderability without specifying exact thickness. The 30.0µin (0.76µm) specification on the HARTING part provides a defined thickness guarantee. Both are acceptable for signal transmission; the specified thickness provides additional quality assurance documentation.

Q: Can I use the HARTING parts in applications requiring -55°C operation?

A: No. The HARTING substitutes are rated only to -40°C minimum. Applications requiring -55°C operation must use the primary L17HTHCS4F1C part, which is rated to -55°C to 150°C.

Q: Does the dielectric material difference (thermoplastic vs. PBT polyester) affect performance?

A: Both materials meet UL94 V-0 flammability requirements and provide equivalent electrical insulation properties for signal applications. The dielectric material difference reflects different manufacturing approaches by the two manufacturers and does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of ROHS3 compliance on the HARTING parts?

A: ROHS3 compliance indicates adherence to the latest Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive requirements. This exceeds the RoHS compliance designation on the primary part and indicates the HARTING parts meet current European environmental standards. For applications subject to ROHS3 requirements, the HARTING substitutes are preferred.

Q: Is the black color designation on 09564527613 a functional difference?

A: No. Color is a cosmetic specification that does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. The black color on the HARTING part versus unspecified color on the primary part is a manufacturing or aesthetic choice only.

Q: Can I mix and match these connectors in the same assembly?

A: Yes, provided all connectors in the assembly operate within the most restrictive parameter set. If mixing L17HTHCS4F1C with HARTING substitutes, the assembly must operate within -40°C to 85°C and at or below 2A per contact to ensure all parts function within their specifications.
