Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.
Classification of hFE
The 2SC3854 transistor can have a current gain of 50 to 180. The gain of the 2SC3854-O will be in the range from 50 to 100, for the 2SC3854-P it will be in the range from 70 to 140, for the 2SC3854-Y it will be in the range from 90 to 180.
Marking
Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC3854 might only be marked "C3854".
Complementary PNP transistor
The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC3854 is the 2SA1490.
