Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC3790-E transistor can have a current gain of 100 to 200. The gain of the 2SC3790 will be in the range from 40 to 320, for the 2SC3790-C it will be in the range from 40 to 80, for the 2SC3790-D it will be in the range from 60 to 120, for the 2SC3790-F it will be in the range from 160 to 320.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC3790-E might only be marked "C3790-E".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC3790-E is the 2SA1480-E.The BF620 (SOT-89), BF820 (SOT-23) and PMBTA42 (SOT-23) is the SMD version of the 2SC3790-E transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SC3790-E with the 2N5656, 2N5656G, 2N5657, 2N5657G, 2SC2688, 2SC2688-L, 2SC2899, 2SC3417, 2SC3417-E, 2SC3503, 2SC3503-E, 2SC3789, 2SC3789-E, 2SC4212, BD128, BD129, BD158, BD159, BD410, BUX86, BUX87, KSC2258A, KSC2688, KSC2688-Y, KSC3503, KSC3503-E, KSE340, MJE340, MJE340G, MJE3439 or MJE3439G.
