5.2.3 Dominant Timeout

Dominant timeout is a condition that happens as a failsafe for the LIN bus, but only in Normal mode. If TXD is driven low (dominant) unintentionally for an extended period of time, the LIN bus will timeout. This meaning that the transmitter is disabled and the bus is pulled up to a recessive state. The extended period of time for TI devices is typically 20 μs, but can vary from part to part depending on design intent. The protection is cleared and the timer is reset once a rising edge is detected on TXD. During this condition, the transmitter is disabled, the device stays in Normal mode, and RXD follows the LIN bus. This protection is in place to make sure excessive power is not consumed in case there is a short-to-battery while the LIN bus is held dominant.
