Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the LIS2DW12?

Yes. The symbol is EasyEDA_Cloud:LIS2DUX12TR and the footprint 4ms_Package_QFP:LGA-12_2x2mm_P0.5mm, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the LIS2DW12?

LGA-12(2x2), with 12 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the LIS2DW12 datasheet?

STMicroelectronics publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the LIS2DW12?

JLCPCB lists it as part C189624, with 31,837 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the LIS2DW12?

Parts like it in the library: the SC7A20HTR by Hangzhou Silan Microelectronics, the LSM303AGR by STMicroelectronics, the QMA6100P by QST and the KX134-1211 by ROHM Semiconductor. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
