Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SB1558 transistor can have a current gain of 5000 to 30000. The gain of the 2SB1558-A will be in the range from 5000 to 12000, for the 2SB1558-B it will be in the range from 9000 to 18000, for the 2SB1558-C it will be in the range from 15000 to 30000.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SB1558 might only be marked "B1558".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SB1558 is the 2SD2387.You can replace the 2SB1558 with the 2SA1106, 2SB1556, 2SB1559, 2SB1560 or BDV66D.
