The BC337-40 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 collector, base, and emitter leads.
Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The BC337-40 transistor can have a current gain of 250 to 630. The gain of the BC337 will be in the range from 100 to 630, for the BC337-16 it will be in the range from 100 to 250, for the BC337-25 it will be in the range from 160 to 400.The complementary PNP transistor to the BC337-40 is the BC327-40.The 2SC3912 (SOT-23), 2SC3913 (SOT-23), 2SC3914 (SOT-23), 2SC3915 (SOT-23), BC817 (SOT-23), BC817-40 (SOT-23), BC817-40W (SOT-323), BC817W (SOT-323), BCX19 (SOT-23) and MMBT6428 (SOT-23) is the SMD version of the BC337-40 transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.
