Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC1226 transistor can have a current gain of 80 to 220. The gain of the 2SC1226-Q will be in the range from 80 to 160, for the 2SC1226-R it will be in the range from 100 to 220.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC1226 might only be marked "C1226".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC1226 is the 2SA699.You can replace the 2SC1226 with the 2SC1098, 2SC1098A or 2SC1226A.
