The 2SA696-E 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, base, and collector leads.
Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SA696-E transistor can have a current gain of 150 to 300. The gain of the 2SA696 will be in the range from 55 to 300, for the 2SA696-C it will be in the range from 55 to 110, for the 2SA696-D it will be in the range from 90 to 180.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SA696-E might only be marked "A696-E".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SA696-E is the 2SC1210-E.The 2SA1162 (SOT-23), 2SA1586 (SOT-323), 2SA1832 (SOT-23), KTA1504 (SOT-23), KTA1504S (SOT-23) and TMBT3906 (SOT-23) is the SMD version of the 2SA696-E transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SA696-E with the 2N4403, 2SA697, 2SA697-E, 2SA708, BC527, BC528, BCX79, KN2907, KN2907A, KSA708, KSP2907A, KSP55, KSP56, KSP8598, KSP8599, KTN2907, KTN2907A, MPS2907, MPS2907A, MPS2907AG, MPS2907G, MPS4354, MPS4355, MPS750, MPS750G, MPS751, MPS751G, MPS8598, MPS8598G, MPS8599, MPS8599G, MPSA55, MPSA55G, MPSA56, MPSA56G, MPSW51A, MPSW51AG, MPSW55, MPSW55G, MPSW56, MPSW56G, P2N2907A, P2N2907AG, PN200, PN2905, PN2905A, PN2907, PN2907A, PN4354, PN4355, ZTX550 or ZTX951.
