| FFF Compatibility | The LGA-12 pinout assignments are completely different, meaning it is not a pin-to-pin drop-in replacement.Shares a similar 2.0 x 2.0 mm footprint size but is slightly thinner (0.7 mm vs 1.0 mm height) and uses different pad/pin locations.It functions as a 3-axis magnetoresistive digital compass with I2C and SPI interfaces. It meets or exceeds key electrical and environmental parameters. | The LGA-12 pinout assignments are completely different, meaning it is not a pin-to-pin drop-in replacement.Shares the same 2.0 x 2.0 mm footprint size but has a thinner 0.7 mm height and different pad layout.Provides 3-axis magnetic sensing with I2C and SPI interfaces, meeting or exceeding LIS3MDLTR performance. | ||
 AI Summary | LIS3MDLTR by STMicroelectronics: Magnetoresistive Sensor X, Y, Z Axis 12-LGA (2x2). | This is the primary functional alternative suggested by STMicroelectronics. It offers active lifecycle status and a wider magnetic sensing range of ±50 gauss. However, its pinout is entirely different from the LIS3MDLTR, requiring a PCB footprint redesign.
| The IIS2MDCTR is an active, industrial-grade version of ST's modern 3-axis magnetometers. It has excellent stability and a ±50 gauss range, but requires board and software updates.

You searched one part. Parter watches your whole BOM.
All your BOM, at once
Parter maps every line to live stock, lead time, lifecycle and compliance data across the entire market — not part by part.
Hear about problems before they hit production
Allocation, EOL and last-time-buy notices surface the moment they appear, not when your buyer's PO bounces.
Qualified replacements in minutes, not days
Every at-risk line gets form-fit-function matches like the ones above — deltas flagged, evidence attached. Review, push to your BOM, and Parter starts watching the new part too.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. The STMicroelectronics LIS3MDLTR is marked obsolete, so the manufacturer has discontinued it and any remaining supply is limited to distributor stock. The qualified second sources on this page are active parts you can design in today.
The closest qualified second sources for the STMicroelectronics LIS3MDLTR are the LIS2MDLTR (STMicroelectronics) and the IIS2MDCTR (STMicroelectronics), out of 4 matched alternatives in total. Each is compared against the original on fit, form and function in the table above.
Not always. The alternatives to the LIS3MDLTR are matched on function but can differ in package, pinout or a key parameter, so review the fit/form/function notes in the table and the datasheet before designing one in.
The LIS3MDLTR (STMicroelectronics) is a part in the Magnetic Sensors category. This page lists qualified, cross-referenced replacements for it with a side-by-side comparison.
