Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SD1724 transistor can have a current gain of 70 to 400. The gain of the 2SD1724-Q will be in the range from 70 to 140, for the 2SD1724-R it will be in the range from 100 to 200, for the 2SD1724-S it will be in the range from 140 to 280, for the 2SD1724-R it will be in the range from 200 to 400.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SD1724 might only be marked "D1724".The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SD1724 is the 2SB1167.The BDP953 (SOT-223) and BDP955 (SOT-223) is the SMD version of the 2SD1724 transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SD1724 with the 2SD1725 or MJE244.
