Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC3598-C transistor can have a current gain of 40 to 80. The gain of the 2SC3598 will be in the range from 40 to 320, for the 2SC3598-D it will be in the range from 60 to 120, for the 2SC3598-E it will be in the range from 100 to 200, for the 2SC3598-F it will be in the range from 160 to 320.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC3598-C might only be marked "C3598-C".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC3598-C is the 2SA1404-C.You can replace the 2SC3598-C with the 2SC3599, 2SC3599-C, 2SC3953, 2SC3953-C, 2SC3954, 2SC3954-C, 2SC3956, 2SC3956-C, KSC3953, KSC3953-C, MJE341, MJE344 or MJE344G.
