The KSC1008CO 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, collector, and base leads. Suffix "C" means center collector in KSC1008O.
Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The KSC1008CO transistor can have a current gain of 70 to 140. The gain of the KSC1008C will be in the range from 40 to 400, for the KSC1008CG it will be in the range from 200 to 400, for the KSC1008CR it will be in the range from 40 to 80, for the KSC1008CY it will be in the range from 120 to 240.The complementary PNP transistor to the KSC1008CO is the KSA708CO.You can replace the KSC1008CO with the 2SC3243, 2SC3328, 2SC3328-O, 2SD438, 2SD667, 2SD667A, KSC2331 or KSC2331O.
