Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SA963-Q transistor can have a current gain of 80 to 160. The gain of the 2SA963 will be in the range from 50 to 220, for the 2SA963-P it will be in the range from 50 to 100, for the 2SA963-R it will be in the range from 120 to 220.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SA963-Q might only be marked "A963-Q".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SA963-Q is the 2SC2209-Q.You can replace the 2SA963-Q with the 2SA1096, 2SA1096-Q, 2SA1096A, 2SA1096A-Q, 2SA1214, 2SA1217, 2SA1217-O, 2SA1359, 2SA1359-O, 2SA886, 2SA886Q, 2SA986, 2SA986Q, 2SB1165, 2SB1166, 2SB744, 2SB744A, BD132, BD136, BD136-10, BD136G, BD138, BD138-10, BD138G, BD140, BD140-10, BD140G, BD166, BD168, BD170, BD176, BD176-10, BD178, BD178-10, BD180, BD180-10, BD180G, BD188, BD190, BD227, BD229, BD231, BD234, BD234G, BD236, BD236G, BD238, BD238G, BD376, BD376-10, BD378, BD378-10, BD380, BD380-10, BD786, BD788, BD788G, BD790, KSB744, KSB744A, KSE170, KSE171, KSE172, KTA1715, MJE170, MJE170G, MJE171, MJE171G, MJE172, MJE172G, MJE230, MJE232, MJE233, MJE235, MJE250, MJE251, MJE252, MJE371, MJE371G, MJE710, MJE711 or MJE712.
