Pinout of ZTX556

The ZTX556 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.

SMD Version of ZTX556 transistor

The KST93 (SOT-23) is the SMD version of the ZTX556 transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.

Replacement and Equivalent for ZTX556 transistor
