Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC3246-J transistor can have a current gain of 900 to 1800. The gain of the 2SC3246 will be in the range from 400 to 3000, for the 2SC3246-G it will be in the range from 400 to 800, for the 2SC3246-H it will be in the range from 600 to 1200, for the 2SC3246-K it will be in the range from 1500 to 3000.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC3246-J might only be marked "C3246-J".The 2SC3439 (SOT-89) and 2SC3439-J (SOT-89) is the SMD version of the 2SC3246-J transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SC3246-J with the 2SC3225 or 2SC4682.
