The Lifecycle of the STM32L151

How about the lifecycle of the STM32L151? We are designing a new project. Is it available in another 15 years?

Some STM32L151 chips are already NRND. If it's one of those, no. The ones that are still active have a 10 year product commitment. Typically, this gets pushed out yearly but there's no guarantees past 10 years. At the very least, you'll get a 9-year heads up that the chip may be going away if you check the list yearly.

 

Partial list here:

As noted in that article, you need to give the full part number for a specific answer.

When you go to the Product Page for the specific part, you will see the status, and lifetime promise ("longevity"); eg,

A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.
A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.
