My suppliers in Australia say it is obsolete and Mouser quote 20 weeks delivery. Digikey show no stock and I cannot get an availability. ST website says it is active. Can someone recommend an equivalent to this. I need to get hold of 25 of these now and a further 150 in 3-4 weeks time.

LIS3DH is still available and supported. Indeed it is quite old device so maybe some distributors remove it from their catalog. There could be also temporarily shortage of these devices. You may try contact you local sales office

.

I can recommend newer device LIS2DH12, but unfortunately it is in smaller 2x2mm package so you would have to modify your PCB design.

Thanks for the reply. It appears that it is now only available in a full reel. I have 300 boards waiting to be loaded with this footprint so I am unable to use the newer device now. I have found a supplier who can help me out in this case.

Thanks
