The 2SA1296-Y 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 2SA1296-Y transistor can have a current gain of 120 to 240. The gain of the 2SA1296 will be in the range from 120 to 400, for the 2SA1296-GR it will be in the range from 200 to 400.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SA1296-Y might only be marked "A1296-Y".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SA1296-Y is the 2SC3266-Y.The BCX69 (SOT-89) and BCX69-16 (SOT-89) is the SMD version of the 2SA1296-Y transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.The KTA1296-Y is the TO-92 version of the 2SA1296-Y.You can replace the 2SA1296-Y with the 2SA1273, 2SA928A, KSA928A, KTA1273, KTA1282, KTA1296, KTA1296-Y or STB1277.
