Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SA680 transistor can have a current gain of 40 to 140. The gain of the 2SA680-R will be in the range from 40 to 80, for the 2SA680-Y it will be in the range from 70 to 140.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SA680 might only be marked "A680".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SA680 is the 2SC1080.You can replace the 2SA680 with the 2SA1041, 2SA1043, 2SA679, 2SA907, 2SA908, 2SA909, 2SB554, 2SB555, 2SB556, 2SB697, 2SB697K, 2SB723, BD318, MJ15002, MJ15002G, MJ15004 or MJ15004G.
