Open-collector output
An output circuit that provides a path to ground through a transistor (by connexion to its collector) but does not provide a corresponding path to +V through a built-in pull-up resister or other means. Without an external pull-up, this collector circuit is open. Therefore, a pull-up resister must be provided by a load.
