-### v0.1 Differences ###
-
-* 2.5 x 1 inch board with all parts mounted on one side
-* 4-pin PicoBlade serial port connector for attachment of external GPS module
-* USB connector projected approximately 3mm over the edge of the board
-* Debug connector used 4 IC socket pins on 100 mil centers
-* no companion board interface
-* 50ma LDO regulator on early boards, later boards used a 100ma part
-* [Microchip 25LC1024](http://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/Devices.aspx?dDocName=en520389) CMOS serial EEPROM instead of DataFlash
- * 128k x 8
- * SPI interface
-* [Microchip MCP9700A](http://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/Devices.aspx?dDocName=en027103) discrete temperature sensor
-* used 1000uF electrolytic capacitor charged to 5V for pyro supply
-* two LEDs instead of one attached to CPU
-
-The elimination of the discrete temperature sensor and second LED were
-necessary to support the companion board interface added in v0.2.

-## Problems ##
-
-* The CC1111F32 is a 36-pin QFN package, which necessitates reflow
- soldering. Since we needed to reflow solder anyway, and because TI used
- them in their reference design, we went a little crazy and used 0402
- passive parts everywhere. That means working under a microscope to
- place parts! Without an inspection microscope, loading and testing these
- boards might be impossible.
-
-* The addition of on-board GPS in v0.2 means that the total power consumption
- can exceed the rate at which we draw power from the USB interface,
- particularly when the GPS is in cold start mode. This means a battery must
- be attached during operation, and also that the battery will only charge
- effectively from USB when the board is turned off.
-
-* The v0.1 artwork had three issues, two of which required physical rework
- on each board. All of these issues were fixed in v0.2.
-
- * The USB connector footprint was placed wrong, so that the
- connector hung out over the edge of the board instead of being
- flush.
- * We needed chip select on the SPI memory. To fix that, we gave up the
- ability to put the accelerometer into self-test mode and used that
- GPIO line to pull chip select on the memory, which required two
- cuts and two jumpers.
- * The igniter sense circuits each needed a second resistor to
- complete the voltage divider so our 3.3V CPU ADC could read the
- 5V ejection voltage. This was fixed by changing two resistor
- values, and tacking two additional resistors onto the board
- with jumpers to ground.
