The JeeLabs Shop

The JeeNode is a small wireless board with an 8-bit Atmel RISC microprocessor. JeeNodes are compatible with the Arduino platform and can be programmed under Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux using sketches created with the Arduino IDE.

Each JeeNode has 4 identical “ports” for attaching analog and digital I/O logic, I2C devices, and more. The JeeLib library makes it easy to interface to these ports.

The JeeNode Kit contains all the parts needed to build a JeeNode v6 – including an ATmega328p processor and an RFM12B radio module. The processor chip is pre-flashed with the Arduino boot loader and the RF12demo sketch.

Kits are shipped with the ISM-band 868 MHz radio module as used in Europe. See the Modern Device shop for 915 MHz JeeNodes and US$ prices.

The NoRF variant is a kit without the RFM12B radio module. It’s essentially a low-cost Arduino-compatible board with four ports.

Two NoRF JeeNode kits cost less than an Arduino!

The PCB only variant is the bare v6 board without any components. You’ll need to add your own ATmega, RFM12B, regulator, pin headers, and a few other components to create a working JeeNode.

For larger quantities, there are 10-packs - 10 for the price of 9.

The documentation and full design details are freely available. For an overview and comparison with Arduino, see this write-up.

Note: the diode is now optional in v6 and no longer included.

As of mid-Jan 2012, JeeNodes are shipped with OptiBoot 4.4, which is compatible with Uno boards (the old boot was for Duemilanove's).
