According to the Philips ECG data book, an 8050C is an NPN AF power
amplifier transistor, silicon, 100 volts max, 0.5 watt max, TO-92 case,
and might well require a heat sink.  The specs I just gave you are
actually for the ECG289A, which is their recommended replacement,
rather than for the 8050C itself. They don't have a plain 8050 without
the C.
