Seeking Lifetime and Reliability Data for Specific Sensors (STM32WB05, LSM6DSO, LIS2MDL, Alps Alpine

Automation and Control Sensors Transducers

Hi Everyone,

I am working on a project that requires a detailed understanding of the expected lifetime and reliability parameters for the following components. I am looking for information beyond basic datasheets, such as operating life (in hours or cycles), failure rates (FIT), or qualification reports, to support a reliability analysis.

Here are the specific parts:

  • STM32WB05KZV6TR (STMicroelectronics MCU) – The ST website shows a 10-year longevity commitment for this family.

  • LSM6DSO / LSM6DSO32XTR (STMicroelectronics IMU)

  • LIS2MDLTR (STMicroelectronics Magnetometer)

  • HSFPAR004A (Alps Alpine Force Sensor) – The spec sheet lists an operating life of 1,000,000 cycles.

My questions for the community are:

  1. For the STM MEMS sensors (LSM6DSO, LIS2MDL), has anyone obtained reliability test reports (like HTOL, EFR) or FMEDA data from ST? What is the best channel to request this?

  2. Are there known wear-out mechanisms or typical operational life figures for these sensors in continuous use?

  3. Based on your experience, are these parts considered robust for long-term (e.g., 5-10 year) embedded products?

  4. Can anyone recommend where to find similar reliability “pointers” for Alps Alpine components?

Any shared experiences, documentation references, or contact suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Hello malli.kv2,

Welcome to the DigiKey TechForum.

We do not have access to these documents. The best option is to check on the manufacturer’s websites for these documents. If these documents are not listed for these part numbers, you should contact the manufacturer to obtain this information directly from them.

Thanks you @David_1768 , will check with ST.
