This is a project case that I designed for a DIY Arduino Ethernet RF433 controller.
It is constantly listening to commands sent from my smartphone over ethernet and will switch on/off various lights in my residence. It also drives RF controlled mains relays and other DIY Arduino LED strip projects.
In order to use this you will need a few special components, and some soldering skills:
Sparkfun Arduino Pro Minihttps://www.sparkfun.com/products/11113
RF433 transmitterhttp://www.icstation.com/433mhz-transmitter-receiver-arduino-project-p-1402.html
Mini ENC28J60 Ethernet LAN Network Modulehttp://www.ebay.com/itm/Mini-ENC28J60-Ethernet-LAN-Network-Module-For-Arduino-51-AVR-SPI-PIC-STM32-LPC-G-/272138979501
There are various libraries to drive these components, such as:
For the RF433 module: Radioheadhttps://github.com/PaulStoffregen/RadioHead
For the Microchip ENC28J60: Ethercardhttps://github.com/jcw/ethercard
Since the RF433 modules have better range at 12v, I have added a 12 DC-DC step down switching converter (Traco TRS 12450) to convert 12v to 5v. The ENC28J60 however requires 3.3v so I also added a 3.3v linear voltage regulator. However, for some reason the ENC28J60 works fine without logic level conversion so I am using 5v logic. All of this can be packed neatly on the connector board, which you'll have to solder yourself.
