Abstract
Disclosed are a safety device and a secondary battery using the same. The safety device includes a voltage sensitive heating device generating heat when a voltage difference between both ends thereof exceeds a predetermined voltage level and a temperature sensitive device having a reversible current ON/OFF function according to a temperature. The temperature sensitive device is coupled with the voltage sensitive heating device such that the temperature sensitive device detects the heat generated from the voltage sensitive heating device.
