THVD2410 Capacitance Results

With an identical setup to the THVD1400, THVD2410 shows that idle fail-safe is triggered across every capacitance test. When switching from transmit to receive modes, THVD2410 enters the idle fail-safe for 10 µs.Figure 9-1and Figure 9-2 both show the same fail-safe time of 10 µs at 50pF and 1000pF. These results are consistent across singled-ended and differential capacitances.

Since the bus differential voltage enters the VTH_FSH range for a long enough period of time, THVD2410 enters the idle fail-safe mode.
