Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC3116 transistor can have a current gain of 100 to 400. The gain of the 2SC3116-R will be in the range from 100 to 200, for the 2SC3116-S it will be in the range from 140 to 280, for the 2SC3116-T it will be in the range from 200 to 400.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC3116 might only be marked "C3116".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC3116 is the 2SA1248.The KST43 (SOT-23) is the SMD version of the 2SC3116 transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SC3116 with the 2SC3117 or 2SC3902.
