TLIN1431-Q1: Does RXD path need an external pull-up resistor?

Part Number: TLIN1431-Q1

For certain LIN transceivers, the RXD pin is implemented as an open‑drain output, which requires an external pull‑up resistor to transmit recessive frames.

However, regarding the LIN1431‑Q1 with integrated LIN transceiver, our review of its block diagram and electrical parameters suggests its RXD is configured as push‑pull output. Could an expert please confirm this observation?

If RXD is indeed push‑pull, does this mean no external pull‑up resistor is required?

Looking forward to your feedback. Thank you in advance.
