The MPS8598 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.
Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The complementary NPN transistor to the MPS8598 is the MPS8098.The FMMTA55 (SOT-23), KST55 (SOT-23), MMBTA55 (SOT-23), PZTA55 (SOT-223) and SMBTA55 (SOT-23) is the SMD version of the MPS8598 transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the MPS8598 with the 2SA708, BC527, BC528, KN2907A, KSA708, KSP2907A, KSP55, KSP56, KSP8598, KSP8599, KTN2907A, MPS2907A, MPS2907AG, MPS4354, MPS4355, MPS751, MPS751G, MPS8598G, MPS8599, MPS8599G, MPSA55, MPSA55G, MPSA56, MPSA56G, MPSW55, MPSW55G, MPSW56, MPSW56G, P2N2907A, P2N2907AG, PN2905A, PN2907A, PN4354, PN4355, ZTX554, ZTX951 or ZTX953.The MPS8598G transistor is the lead-free version of the MPS8598.
