The 2SB561-C is manufactured in a plastic TO-92 case. When looking at the flat side with the leads pointed downward, the three leads emerging from the transistor are, from left to right, the emitter, collector, and base leads.
Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SB561-C transistor can have a current gain of 120 to 240. The gain of the 2SB561 will be in the range from 85 to 240, for the 2SB561-B it will be in the range from 85 to 170.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SB561-C might only be marked "B561-C".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SB561-C is the 2SD467-C.The BC808 (SOT-23), BC808-16 (SOT-23), BC808-16W (SOT-323) and BC808W (SOT-323) is the SMD version of the 2SB561-C transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SB561-C with the 2N4952, 2N4954, 2SA1150, 2SA1271, 2SA1273, 2SA1296, 2SA1296-Y, 2SA1534, 2SA1534-R, 2SA683, 2SA683-R, 2SA928A, 2SA950, 2SA952, 2SA966, 2SB562, 2SB562-C, 2SB564, 2SB598, 2SB621, 2SB621-R, 2SB621A, 2SB621A-R, 2SB698, KSA928A, KSB564AC, KSB564ACY, KSB810, KSB810-Y, KSB811, KSB811-Y, KTA1271, KTA1272, KTA1273, KTA1282, KTA1283, KTA1296, KTA1296-Y or STB1277.
