If anyone has sensors for sale, we need em! Freescale just bumped the delivery date to August 1st with another bump possible because of ‘wafer fabrication problems’. That’s a big uh-oh.We’re almost out of sensors. I knew I should have bought a bigger inital batch! But I thought the 800 would be around for atleast a couple days… Damn.

I’ve just ordered all the 45 pieces Avnet UK had in stock. I should get them next week, the payment into their bank account will take a few days.

Jay-
Here’s the library file:
http://www.dpaton.net/Freescale_3d.lbr
It’s got some RAM chip footprints in it as well, but the main thing you want is present and verified.
Nathan, I wasn’t able to sweet talk my friend into allocating any chips, and getting samples is now harder than sourcing blood from a stone, or so I’ve heard. The rumor mill says the OEM orders will be filled at the end of the summer, and availability will ease after that.

Thank you Dave.
I did create a part based on another footprint from a Linear Tech librray, somehow it is too accurate, so I will use yours for now.
I am intending to use the 3-axis accelerometer along with a low pwr MSP430, will post when its done.
Cheers
Jay
Thanks guys. We don’t need to buy one or two, we need like 500. I’d really like to get the people that bought the 800.
I called Avnet and they had no idea how to get ahold of Avnet UK or how to check their stock. How silly is that…
Hey Leon, if you want give up a few, please email me spark @ sparkfun.com. Our customers would really like to get ahold of the breakout boards this month, but we can always hope that the stock will come back online in August.

I’ll let you know when I get them. I only need a few for my prototypes, and won’t be going into production for a couple of months at least. I’ve taken Avnet UK’s entire stock of 45.

Hello
I have been getting pretty decent support from Avnet singapore, if you want I could check if they have any left or check on the lead time.

But of course! Thanks Jay! Please let me know.
I would have hoped the avnet people would find stock for me. They were clueless. Please let me know if anyone turns up stock.
Heard a rumor the delivery date got bumped to Aug 31st.

Interesting - I just got an e-mail from Freescale saying my MMA7260Q chips have shipped! I guess they got their production problems fixed?
mine too
mine too lol.
got mine today. Time to get a board made up and I’ll do some comparisons between it and the Kionix KXP-74 chips which I just got.
just got mine and some nice post-its too
yeah, got mine yesterday. Postits are just the right thickness to support the slightly wonky ‘leg’ on my laptop
