Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SC3243-C transistor can have a current gain of 55 to 110. The gain of the 2SC3243 will be in the range from 55 to 300, for the 2SC3243-D it will be in the range from 90 to 180, for the 2SC3243-E it will be in the range from 150 to 300.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC3243-C might only be marked "C3243-C".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC3243-C is the 2SA1283-C.The 2SC3444 (SOT-89), 2SC3444-C (SOT-89), BCP55 (SOT-223), BSR40 (SOT-89), FMMTA05 (SOT-23) and KST05 (SOT-23) is the SMD version of the 2SC3243-C transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.
