Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC1509-S transistor can have a current gain of 185 to 330. The gain of the 2SC1509 will be in the range from 130 to 330, for the 2SC1509-R it will be in the range from 130 to 220.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC1509-S might only be marked "C1509-S".The 2SC3438 (SOT-89), 2SC3438-E (SOT-89), FMMTA06 (SOT-23), KST06 (SOT-23), MMBTA06 (SOT-23), PMBTA06 (SOT-23), PZTA06 (SOT-223) and SMBTA06 (SOT-23) is the SMD version of the 2SC1509-S transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SC1509-S with the 2SC3332, 2SC3708, 2SC3939, 2SC3939-S, 2SD1211, 2SD1211-S, 2SD438, KSC1009C or KTC1006.
