Yes, specifically it generates new public key/address once previous address received bitcoin.
Thanks, What happens if I deposit in the old public key?

You will receive your coins as normal. Your Ledger generates a new address each time as a privacy feature, but your old addresses do not expire. As long as you still have control of your private keys (which are stored on your Ledger and can also be generated from your mnemonic phrase), you will always have control of those addresses.
