Pinout of KSA708R

The KSA708R 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, base, and collector leads. The KSA708CR transistor (with suffix "C") is the center collector version of the KSA708R.
Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.

Classification of hFE

The KSA708R transistor can have a current gain of 40 to 80. The gain of the KSA708 will be in the range from 40 to 400, for the KSA708O it will be in the range from 70 to 140, for the KSA708Y it will be in the range from 120 to 240.

Complementary NPN transistor

The complementary NPN transistor to the KSA708R is the KSC1008R.

KSA708R Transistor in TO-92 Package

The 2SA708R is the TO-92 version of the KSA708R.
