Hello
does anyone knows the behaviour of the driver stage of this part when the VCC is not supplied? I would like to know if the driver remains in high impedance allowing the BUS to properly works even when vcc is not supplied.
Thank you

Hi Alberto,
Yes, the THVD1429 is designed such that the driver outputs (pins A and B) will be high impedance when the device is unpowered. For details you could reference the "bus input current" specification, which gives a test condition including both VCC = 0 V and VCC = 5.5 V. (It is listed in the receiver section rather than the driver section, but really it defines both - the receiver inputs and driver outputs share a common pair of pins for a half-duplex transceiver like this.)
Please let me know if you have any further questions.
Regards,
Max
