Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SA968AO transistor can have a current gain of 70 to 140. The gain of the 2SA968A will be in the range from 70 to 240, for the 2SA968AY it will be in the range from 120 to 240.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SA968AO might only be marked "A968AO".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SA968AO is the 2SC2238AO.You can replace the 2SA968AO with the 2SA1006, 2SA1006A, 2SA1006B, 2SA1009, 2SA1306A, 2SA1306A-O, 2SA1306B, 2SA1306B-O, 2SA1668, 2SA1859A, 2SA968B, 2SA968BO, 2SB630, 2SB940A, 2SB940A-Q, FJP1943, FJPF1943, KTA1659A, KTA1659AO, KTA968A, KTA968AO, KTB1369, KTB1369O, MJE15033, MJE15033G, MJE5850, MJE5850G, MJE5851 or MJE5851G.
