Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SD468-B transistor can have a current gain of 85 to 170. The gain of the 2SD468 will be in the range from 85 to 240, for the 2SD468-C it will be in the range from 120 to 240.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SD468-B might only be marked "D468-B".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SD468-B is the 2SB562-B.The 2SD874 (SOT-89), 2SD874-Q (SOT-89), BCP68 (SOT-223), BCP68-10 (SOT-223), BCX68 (SOT-89) and BCX68-10 (SOT-89) is the SMD version of the 2SD468-B transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SD468-B with the 2SC1383, 2SC1383-Q, 2SC3940, 2SC3940-Q, 2SD545, 2SD592, 2SD592-Q, 2SD592A, 2SD592A-Q or KTC3211.
