The 2SD592A is manufactured in a plastic TO-92 case. When looking at the flat side with the leads pointed downward, the three leads emerging from the transistor are, from left to right, the emitter, collector, and base leads.
Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SD592A transistor can have a current gain of 85 to 340. The gain of the 2SD592A-Q will be in the range from 85 to 170, for the 2SD592A-R it will be in the range from 120 to 240, for the 2SD592A-S it will be in the range from 170 to 340.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SD592A might only be marked "D592A".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SD592A is the 2SB621A.The 2SC2859 (SOT-23), 2SC4118 (SOT-323), 2SD874 (SOT-89), KTC3876 (SOT-23) and KTC3876S (SOT-23) is the SMD version of the 2SD592A transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SD592A with the 2SC1383, 2SC1384, 2SC3940, 2SC3940A, 2SD545 or 2SD592.
