Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SB1159 transistor can have a current gain of 60 to 200. The gain of the 2SB1159-P will be in the range from 100 to 200, for the 2SB1159-Q it will be in the range from 60 to 120, for the 2SB1159-S it will be in the range from 80 to 160.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SB1159 might only be marked "B1159".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SB1159 is the 2SD1714.You can replace the 2SB1159 with the 2SB1056, 2SB1057, 2SB1160 or 2SB1161.
