7.4.2 Saturation Mode

If the external source or circuit connected to the COL pin cannot supply enough current to satisfy the CTR of the device for a given IF value (For example, IC = 1mA when IF = 10mA), then the output transistor saturates and goes into a low impedance state. The device is considered in "saturation mode". This is how digital signals can be transmitted through this device.
