CC2541 and AFE4490 implementation

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2541, AFE4490

I posted this a couple of weeks ago and didn't get a reply. So i'm hoping that someone can help me out.  First question is can the CC2541 and AFE4490 be used directly instead of using an MSP430 or other micro between them.  The CC2541 has the 8051 core on it so why not just use that as the main micro?  My other question is can I use Code Composer to compile my C code for the CC2541 or do I have to use IAR embedded workbench?  My school has full version of Code Composer I can use but not IAR.  IAR is really expensive and i'm but a poor college student.  Hoping Code Composer supports the CC2541 now.  Thanks !!

    it seems IAR is the only one fully supported. 

    if MSP430 works, then it is likely cc2541 may works too. but source code might need to be modified from MSP430 for interface with AFE4490, and calculation will be done in a different way. wish you can make it.

    Thanks, i've called TI and they said to post here.  I'm ok with changing code to get it to work.  I just want to make sure I can still use it without the MSP430.  Hoping a TI support person with confirm.  Thanks for easing my stress a little.
