Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SA512 transistor can have a current gain of 30 to 150. The gain of the 2SA512-O will be in the range from 50 to 150, for the 2SA512-R it will be in the range from 30 to 90.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SA512 might only be marked "A512".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SA512 is the 2SC512.You can replace the 2SA512 with the 2N5322 or 2SA510.
