Circuit diagram for the alpha particle irradiator microcontroller. M1, M2 and M3 are electromagnetic shutters; rot1, rot2, and rot3 are rotary motors that spin the 241Am sources to ensure field uniformity. The 100 μF bypass capacitors (PART #5) were placed to dampen noise coming from the switching of motor states.
