Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC1846Q transistor can have a current gain of 85 to 170. The gain of the 2SC1846 will be in the range from 85 to 340, for the 2SC1846R it will be in the range from 120 to 240, for the 2SC1846S it will be in the range from 170 to 340.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC1846Q might only be marked "C1846Q".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC1846Q is the 2SA885Q.You can replace the 2SC1846Q with the 2SC1162, 2SC1212, 2SC1847, 2SC2209, 2SC2497, 2SC2497A, 2SC3422, 2SC496, 2SD1722, 2SD1723, 2SD794, 2SD794A, BD131, BD135, BD135G, BD137, BD137G, BD165, BD167, BD175, BD177, BD187, BD189, BD226, BD228, BD233, BD233G, BD235, BD235G, BD375, BD377, BD785, BD787, BD787G, BDX35, BDX36, KSD794, KSD794A, KSE180, KSE181, KTC2814, MJE180, MJE180G, MJE181, MJE181G, MJE220, MJE222, MJE223, MJE225, MJE521, MJE521G, MJE720 or MJE721.
