Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The BD138-16 transistor can have a current gain of 100 to 250. The gain of the BD138 will be in the range from 40 to 250, for the BD138-10 it will be in the range from 63 to 160, for the BD138-6 it will be in the range from 40 to 100.The complementary NPN transistor to the BD138-16 is the BD137-16.The 2SA1364 (SOT-89), BCP52 (SOT-223), BCP52-16 (SOT-223), BCX52 (SOT-89), BCX52-16 (SOT-89), BSP31 (SOT-223), BSR31 (SOT-89), MMBT2907A (SOT-23), MMBT4354 (SOT-23), MMBT4355 (SOT-23) and PZT2907A (SOT-223) is the SMD version of the BD138-16 transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the BD138-16 with the 2SB1144, 2SB1167, 2SB1168, 2SB649, 2SB744A, BD138G, BD140, BD140-16, BD140G, BD168, BD170, BD178, BD180, BD180G, BD190, BD229, BD231, BD236, BD236G, BD238, BD238G, BD378, BD378-16, BD380, BD380-16, BD788, BD788G, BD790, BD792, KSB744A, KSE171, KSE172, MJE171, MJE171G, MJE172, MJE172G, MJE235, MJE252, MJE254, MJE711 or MJE712.
