Claim 11:
12. An initiator comprising:
an initiator shell extending in an axial direction, the initiator shell comprising:
a shell wall defining a shell interior; and
an explosive provided within the shell interior; and

a head connected to the initiator shell at a first end of the initiator shell in the axial direction, the head comprising:
a housing extending in the axial direction;
a circuit board provided in an interior space of the housing, a thickness direction of the circuit board being substantially parallel with the axial direction; and
a line-in terminal accessible from an exterior of the housing, the line-in terminal being in electrical communication with the circuit board;
wherein an exterior shape of the housing is rotationally asymmetric with respect to the axial direction;

wherein the circuit board is configured to activate the explosive in response to a control signal received at the line-in terminal.
