Abstract

Provided is a battery pack. The battery pack includes; a first battery cell and a second battery cell; a protection circuit module (PCM) that is located between the first and second battery cells and is electrically connected to the first and second battery cells; a thermal sensor that is electrically connected to the PCM and measures a temperature of the first battery cell; and a frame that accommodates the first battery cell, the second battery cell, and the PCM, wherein the frame includes a seating unit on which the PCM is seated, and the seating unit comprises a hole for inserting the thermal sensor to fix a position of the thermal sensor. Accordingly, damage to the thermal sensor is prevented and reliability of the thermal sensor is increased.
