Hi, I'm trying to repair a rather messy bodge job on an audio effects
rack unit. The components requiring fixing are all surface mount,
including a 2SD2214 transistor which is now obsolete. If anyone has a
transistor equivalent guide then please could you look up for a modern
equivalent for this device? Would be much appreciated!

Thanks

Gerry

The few references I find to this number show it as a TO-220FA package -
which I believe is like a regular TO-220 with a plastic insulated header.
Not surface mount. Could this part number be wrong?

If it is the one I found, shouldn't be too hard to sub. Looks like pretty
standard stuff. Collector current up to 8A would be the most important spec,
but if it's not on a heat sink I doubt if they are running it all that hard.

a transistor substitution databook gives for a 2sd2214 the following
equivalents:
2sd1826 by sanyo
2sd1928 by nec

hopes this helps...
