Abstract

A technique facilitates controlled detonation in well environments and other types of environments. Electronics for controlling detonation of a pellet of explosive material are mounted on a structure, such as a circuit board. The pellet is operatively coupled with the electronics and positioned to extend outwardly from the structure. Another explosive component is arranged across the pellet at a predetermined angle, e.g. a right angle, with respect to a longitudinal axis of the pellet. In well applications or other applications utilizing shaped charges, the explosive component may be coupled to the shaped charge via a detonator cord.
