The 2SC1008Y 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, base, and collector leads.
Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC1008Y transistor can have a current gain of 120 to 240. The gain of the 2SC1008 will be in the range from 40 to 400, for the 2SC1008G it will be in the range from 200 to 400, for the 2SC1008O it will be in the range from 70 to 140, for the 2SC1008R it will be in the range from 40 to 80.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC1008Y might only be marked "C1008Y".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC1008Y is the 2SA708Y.The BCV71 (SOT-23) is the SMD version of the 2SC1008Y transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.The KSC1008Y, KTC1008-Y is the TO-92 version of the 2SC1008Y.You can replace the 2SC1008Y with the BC537, BC537-16, BC538, BC538-16, KSC1008, KSC1008Y, MPS651, MPS651G, PN4033 or ZTX454.
