Where to find specific part longevity? The following link has details for few parts only.

Hi @KGane.1 , @TDK ,

Thanks for spotting that issue on our Longevity Program page.

This program is an ST commitment to supply selected products for a defined period (7, 10, 15 and 20 years). The commitment is stated in the program page.

Here we have an issue with very few products STM32H7A/H7B/U5 as your correctly spotted it. The issue has been identified and is being fixed.

So you'll see very soon these products appear in the list of selected products for the 10 years Longevity commitment.

Sorry for this data misalignment.

Thanks

-Christophe

Perhaps your local sales office?

Availability is one of those touchy subjects currently, especially when you don't own all the foundries, or the packaging/test.. I consider Taiwan a Country, China does not.

Management is likely to change in the next 5 or 10 years, promises made to day are only as good as the stiff penalty clauses you have behind them.

The only real guarantees will be that you have parts you've inventoried in your own warehouses, and it doesn't burn or flood, etc.

No. I don't see the details of STM32H743x, STM32H753x,STM32HA3xI, STM32H7B3xI

I see H743 and H753

10-year commitment is listed on the H7A/H7B page. Probably unintentionally hasn't been added to the table yet:

I don't see STM32U5 in the table either, but that also as a 10-yr commitment per the product page:

@TDK Thanks for sharing information. I am not sure why cant i see the same.

Weird. Maybe they use the same bad software for that table as they do for the forum. Maybe it’s a regional thing.
