The 2SA1018R is manufactured in a plastic TO-92 case. When looking at the flat side with the leads pointed downward, the three leads emerging from the transistor are, from left to right, the emitter, collector, and base leads.
Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SA1018R transistor can have a current gain of 100 to 220. The gain of the 2SA1018 will be in the range from 60 to 220, for the 2SA1018Q it will be in the range from 60 to 150.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SA1018R might only be marked "A1018R".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SA1018R is the 2SC1473R.The BF623 (SOT-89) and BF823 (SOT-23) is the SMD version of the 2SA1018R transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SA1018R with the 2SA1370, 2SA1371, 2SA1624, 2SA1767, 2SA1767R, 2SA879, 2SA879-R, 2SB1221, 2SB1221-R or KTA1279.
