An open collector is a common type of output found on many integrated circuits (IC).Instead of outputting a signal of a specific voltage or current, the output signal is applied to the base of an internal NPN transistor whose collector is externalized (open) on a pin of the IC. The emitter of the transistor is connected internally to the ground pin. If the output device is a MOSFET the output is called open drain and it functions in a similar way.

Wired-or open drain with open collector outputs
There really isn't an issue with that. Open drain and open-collector are essentially the same in this application.
Two things to watch out for:
Make sure you get your polarities right and that you …
