PRODUCTION DATA.
Occasionally, a runaway CAN controller unintentionally sends messages that completely tie up the bus (what is referred to in CAN jargon as a babbling idiot). When this occurs, the µP, MCU or DSP can engage the listen-only standby mode of the transceiver to disable the driver and release the bus, even when access to the CAN controller has been lost. When the driver circuit is deactivated, its outputs default to a high-impedance state (recessive).
