Pinout of BC212

The BC212 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.

SMD Version of BC212 transistor

The FJX733 (SOT-323) is the SMD version of the BC212 transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.
