Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SD1718-P transistor can have a current gain of 100 to 200. The gain of the 2SD1718 will be in the range from 60 to 200, for the 2SD1718-Q it will be in the range from 60 to 120, for the 2SD1718-S it will be in the range from 80 to 160.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SD1718-P might only be marked "D1718-P".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SD1718-P is the 2SB1163-P.You can replace the 2SD1718-P with the 2SD1313, MJL4281A, MJL4281AG, MJW3281A or MJW3281AG.
