BMI090L availability

[sebmadgwick]

We have designed our product using the BMI090L for it's impressive performance and 10 year availability.  We manufactured an quantity last year before Bosch added the note 'Production quaternities available Q3 2022.  I am now very concerned to see that the part has been removed from the Bosch website entirely.  Please can someone from Bosch clarify the situation.

Hello sebmadgwick,

Do you mean that you have used BMI090L in your products and have produced some quantities? Are you worried about the supply of BMI090L?

[sebmadgwick]

Yes, we did a small production run before the global electronics supply issues hit. Bosch then announced that BMI090L production quantities would not be available until Q3 2022. We adjusted our schedule accordingly. Now the BMI090L has been removed from the Bosch website. We need to know if and when the BMI090L will be available so that we can continue production.

DigiKey now state, "This product is no longer sold at Digi-Key and will no longer be stocked.  Version no longer manufactured."  There was no EOL notification or NRND period.  Bosch specifically claimed extended availability up to 10 years for this part.

What is the status of this part?

Hello sebmadgwick,

The sales information should be confirmed with your local distributor.
