Help locating transistor (?) or replacement

Apr 28, 2008 6 Replies

Howdy all, I am trying to track down a replacement for a transistor(?) with the following #'s:



D829 (K) 6J2



I would like to replace it with one able to handle a higher current as I am told they are a frequent replacement item in the circuit. Any info would be helpful.



Thanks, Gary


Perhaps it's this one?

If so, it's a fairly hefty NPN Darlington switch.

Some data sheet. Not even a mfr logo to claim responsibility.

I suspect that the manufacturer name may be present, albeit in Japanese. The data sheet looks as if it might have been photocopied from within a specific manufacturer's data book, rather than being a stand-alone document.

If you do a search for 2SD829 at

several references come up. The first is a page from a Japanese semiconductor-devices summary (1981, I think). The 2SD829 is listed there... but alas, the "manufacturer" column contains only Japanese text.

Somebody with rather better language skills than I might be able to translate.

It looks shockingly like a Sanken device. They do some oddball packages.

Thanks, This is indeed the critter. I a hoping to find any common replacement that is a little more hardy that will sub.

Thanks again!

No, It is Hitachi actually.
