Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC2238BO transistor can have a current gain of 70 to 140. The gain of the 2SC2238B will be in the range from 70 to 240, for the 2SC2238BY it will be in the range from 120 to 240.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC2238BO might only be marked "C2238BO".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC2238BO is the 2SA968BO.You can replace the 2SC2238BO with the 2SC2336A, 2SC2336B, 2SC2898, 2SC3298B, 2SC3298B-O, 2SC3310, 2SC3868, 2SC4242, 2SC4382, 2SD610, 2SD772A, 2SD772B, 2SD792A, 2SD792B, BUX84, FJP5200, FJPF5200, MJE13070, MJE15032 or MJE15032G.
