Abstract
A battery system includes: a plurality of battery units, each of the battery units including at least one battery cell, the at least one battery cell including a positive terminal, a negative terminal, and a cell case; and a flexible printed circuit (FPC) including a plurality of integrated circuits (ICs) configured for voltage measurement and temperature measurement. The ICs are interconnected by a wiring structure of the FPC. Each of the ICs is thermally connected to the cell case of the at least one of battery cell of each of the battery units via a contact element in the FPC and is electrically connected via the contact element to the positive terminal of the at least one battery cell of each of the battery units.
