I am searching for a dual full H-bridge chip with separate load voltage inputs for each bridge and high impedance state for outputs when idle. The TA7279AP is perfect but is being phased out.
The closest component I have been able to find is SemeLab IP3M10, but it does not have a state with both outputs at high impedance.
Requirements are 8 to 24 volts, and each bridge able to handle up to 100mA. TTL control logic.
Thanks in advance for suggestions about possible replacement components.

The first thing that you need to determine is why you need the same level of integration that you currently have. Could you get by with (2) H-bridges, or (4) half-bridges? This will open up your options immensely.
Second, can you use discrete transistors with drivers? For low-voltage/low-current applications this isn't really needed, but if you needed higher performance, this is crucial.
Other related drivers you could look at to replace H-bridge drivers are synchronous-drivers (often used with a half-bridge), which can be much cheaper and offer better performance, but have some limitations.
As far as manufacturers to peruse:
