Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The complementary NPN transistor to the MJE253 is the MJE243.The BDP954 (SOT-223) is the SMD version of the MJE253 transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the MJE253 with the BD792, MJE253G or MJE254.The MJE253G transistor is the lead-free version of the MJE253.
