CA3086/NTE912 equivalent?

[nosamiam]

Little help?

CA3086: http://www.intersil.com/data/fn/fn483.pdf

NTE912: http://www.nteinc.com/specs/900to999/pdf/nte912.pdf

Both are 5-transistor arrays. The CA3086 datasheet uses schematic symbols to demonstrate the pinout. The NTE912 uses Vin, Vout, etc. I understand the CA3086 sheet but I'm not familiar with the NTE912's terminology. Logically, it would seem to me that Collector=Vin, Base=Vin, & Emitter=Vout. Is that how it goes?

My local shop told me these two ICs are pin-for-pin equivalent. Are they?

Oh Man !, I got excited for a second there until I remembered I need 3094's.

NTE's thing is matching parts, so their 912 will do the job. The NTE912 also matches the CA3046, so maybe you could use a 3046 as well.

Swollen Pickle?

Nope, my Pickle is fine thanks.  

I'm repairing an '80s APR synthesizer. Thanks for the help. Problem must be somewhere else.

Ok, so back to the other part of my original question:

When I'm looking at the datasheet for a transistor with legs C, B, & E, which are Vins and which are Vouts? Can someone clear this up for me?
