Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC5248 transistor can have a current gain of 60 to 200. The gain of the 2SC5248-D will be in the range from 60 to 120, for the 2SC5248-E it will be in the range from 100 to 200.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC5248 might only be marked "C5248".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC5248 is the 2SA1964.You can replace the 2SC5248 with the 2SC2336, 2SC2336A, 2SC2336B, 2SC2344, 2SC4382, 2SC4883A, 2SD1264A, 2SD1763A, 2SD610, 2SD772A, 2SD772B, 2SD792A, 2SD792B, MJE15032, MJE15032G, TIP41F or TIP42F.
