Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SD1253A-Q transistor can have a current gain of 70 to 150. The gain of the 2SD1253A will be in the range from 40 to 250, for the 2SD1253A-P it will be in the range from 120 to 250, for the 2SD1253A-R it will be in the range from 40 to 90.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SD1253A-Q might only be marked "D1253A-Q".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SD1253A-Q is the 2SB930A-Q.The BDP951 (SOT-223) is the SMD version of the 2SD1253A-Q transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SD1253A-Q with the 2SC3303, 2SD1255, 2SD1256, 2SD1257, 2SD1257A or KTC2022D.
