The Switch Node is a low cost wireless Arduino IDE compatible (the Atmel ATMega328P) microcontroller with HopeRF RFM69-CW 433/868/915 MHz radio on board and build in hardware debouncer. Best suitable for Home Automation, IOT. Could be used as switch board for radio controlling any DIY project.

Features

• Fully compatible with the Arduino IDE (PRO MINI 8 MG Hz)
• Sleep current consumption 5uA
• Over the Air, firmware updates (OTA) ready. In combination with preprogrammed Dual Optiboot boot loader and on board External JDEC EPROM\Flash memory the Node allows OTA software updates.
• Onboard RFM69-CW 433/868/915 MHz Radio Transceiver with wire antenna
• Onboard Atmel ATSHA204A CryptoAuthentication chip makes communication with the Node very secured. ATSHA204A implements secured handshake and if handshake fails the Node will not executing any command sent to it
• Programming header is FTDI, TTL Serial. For programming you need to have USB TTL Serial – FTDI adaptor
• ENIG Emersion Gold finish
• MySensors compatible. You can use superb set of scripts and libraries from mysensors.org project and convert the nodes into reliable network of little home sensors, relays and actuators.
• Supports both ON/OFF and momentary switches
• Battery connector CR2450
• Yes, it is open sourced. Completely.

Comes with Arduino example sketch.

Overview

If you are familiar with Arduino boards, the Switch Node is Arduino pro Mini with onboard HopeRF RFM69-CW 433/868/915 MHz radio, external EPROM flash and crypto authentication chip. To save some board dimensions the Switch Node does not have onboard USB-Serial converter. You need to buy FTDI Adapter for programming. HopeRF RFM69-CW provide extremely good range. Hundreds of meters in open areas. External Flash chip allows burning Arduino sketch wirelessly. Onboard Atmel ATSHA204A CryptoAuthentication chip secures communication with other controllers.
