Additional Definitions
There is some contention with respect to applying the broader term "OTL" to capacitively coupled designs and variants. The need to delineate these designs from their directly coupled counterparts has led to the informal adoption of several additional terms, including:
- OCL (output capacitorless) - which distinguishes OTL designs lacking an output coupling capacitor (directly coupled)
- DC-OTL - which denotes a directly coupled design; synonymous with OCL
- AC-OTL - which denotes an AC (capacitively) coupled design
- Z-OTL - which denotes a small class of variants

Famous quotes containing the words additional and/or definitions:
“The mere existence of an additional child or children in the family could signify Less. Less time alone with parents. Less attention for hurts and disappointments. Less approval for accomplishments. . . . No wonder children struggle so fiercely to be first or best. No wonder they mobilize all their energy to have more or most. Or better still, all.”
—Adele Faber (20th century)
“Lord Byron is an exceedingly interesting person, and as such is it not to be regretted that he is a slave to the vilest and most vulgar prejudices, and as mad as the winds?
There have been many definitions of beauty in art. What is it? Beauty is what the untrained eyes consider abominable.”
—Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)
