Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SA965 transistor can have a current gain of 80 to 240. The gain of the 2SA965-O will be in the range from 80 to 160, for the 2SA965-Y it will be in the range from 120 to 240.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SA965 might only be marked "A965".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SA965 is the 2SC2235.The 2SA1201 (SOT-89) and KTA1661 (SOT-89) is the SMD version of the 2SA965 transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.
