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 world will never be long without some good reason to hate the unhappy; their real faults are immediately detected, and if those are not sufficient to sink them into infamy, an additional weight of calumny will be superadded.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“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)
