The 2SC2000 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 2SC2000 transistor can have a current gain of 40 to 180. The gain of the 2SC2000-K will be in the range from 90 to 180, for the 2SC2000-L it will be in the range from 60 to 120, for the 2SC2000-M it will be in the range from 40 to 80.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC2000 might only be marked "C2000".You can replace the 2SC2000 with the KSC1008C or KSC2331.
