Hey Keith and Bdale,
The design looks pretty decent, no glaring flaws I can see. Good thing
since you probably sent the design out yesterday! :) Software wise sdcc
sounds great. I have used ASxxxx on my 8051 assembly projects with
success, and was planning on getting sdcc up. You probably have enough
8051 internal ram for what you are doing, but I thought to let you know
of an SPI SRAM part [1] I found in an SOIC-8 form factor. Most
importantly it is now available; I obtained mine from Arrow Electronics
for $1.81 each.
Looks great,
Glenn

Bdale and I are about ready to get some boards made and try our hand at
reflowing SMT components. The plan is to order boards on Monday, but
we'd love to have others with hw experience take a look and make sure
our design doesn't have some obvious and fatal flaw. Again:
* CC1111 CPU/radio
* LIPO charger
* MP3H6115A barometric sensor
* MCP9700 temperature sensor
* MMA2202EG 50G accelerometer
* 25LC1024 128KB SPI flash memory
* 2 FD335N FETs for recovery firing
You'll find attached the schematic and board layout in PostScript form
along with gerber files containing the board layers and a cnc file full
of drill data.
Software wise, the plan is to run FreeRTOS on the embedded 8051. I've
gotten C programs from sdcc running on a cc1111 proto board, so I'm
confident that we'll be able to program this thing without significant
difficulty. Oddly, the 8051 is well supported by free software.
