Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SD1609-C transistor can have a current gain of 100 to 200. The gain of the 2SD1609 will be in the range from 60 to 320, for the 2SD1609-B it will be in the range from 60 to 120, for the 2SD1609-D it will be in the range from 160 to 320.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SD1609-C might only be marked "D1609-C".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SD1609-C is the 2SB1109-C.The HSD1609S-C is the TO-92 version of the 2SD1609-C.You can replace the 2SD1609-C with the 2N5655, 2N5655G, 2N5656, 2N5656G, 2SC1565A, 2SC2258, 2SC2682, 2SC2682Q, 2SC2688, 2SC2688-L, 2SC2690A, 2SC2690A-Q, 2SC2911, 2SC2911-R, 2SC2912, 2SC2912-R, 2SC3116, 2SC3116-R, 2SC3117, 2SC3117-R, 2SC3416, 2SC3416-E, 2SC3417, 2SC3417-E, 2SC3502, 2SC3502-E, 2SC3503, 2SC3503-E, 2SC3600, 2SC3600-E, 2SC3601, 2SC3601-E, 2SC3787, 2SC3787-R, 2SC3788, 2SC3788-E, 2SC3789, 2SC3789-E, 2SC3790, 2SC3790-E, 2SC3902, 2SC3902-R, 2SC3955, 2SC3955-E, 2SC3956, 2SC3956-E, 2SC4212, 2SD1610, 2SD1610-C, 2SD669A, 2SD669A-C, BD127, BD128, BD157, BD158, HSD1609, HSD1609-C, KSC2258, KSC2258A, KSC2682, KSC2682O, KSC2688, KSC2688-Y, KSC2690A, KSC2690A-O, KSC3502, KSC3502-E, KSC3503, KSC3503-E, KSE340, KTC2800, MJE340, MJE340G, MJE344, MJE3440 or MJE344G.
