Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SB601-L transistor can have a current gain of 3000 to 7000. The gain of the 2SB601 will be in the range from 2000 to 15000, for the 2SB601-K it will be in the range from 5000 to 15000, for the 2SB601-M it will be in the range from 2000 to 5000.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SB601-L might only be marked "B601-L".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SB601-L is the 2SD560-LB.You can replace the 2SB601-L with the 2N6042, 2N6042G, 2SB1020, 2SB1020A, 2SB1227, 2SB1228, 2SB673, 2SB885, 2SB886, BD244C, BD540C, BD544C, BD546C, BD650, BD652, BD802, BD902, BD954, BD956, BDT62B, BDT62C, BDT64B, BDT64C, BDT86, BDT86F, BDT88, BDT88F, BDW24C, BDW47, BDW47G, BDW48, BDW64C, BDW64D, BDW74C, BDW74D, BDX34C, BDX34CG, BDX34D, BDX54C, BDX54CG, BDX54D, BDX54E, BDX54F, MJE15029, MJE15029G, MJE15031, MJE15031G, MJF127, MJF127G, MJF15031, MJF15031G, MJF6668, MJF6668G, TIP107, TIP107G, TIP127, TIP127G, TIP137, TIP137G, TIP147T or TTB1020B.
