Abstract

The smart battery (1) includes an electronic module provided with an electronic circuit (8) for controlling the supply voltage, which is disposed in a case having a cover (2) as the external negative terminal, fixed to a cup (3), as the external positive terminal. A first chemical substance (4) as the anode and a second chemical substance (5) as the cathode, are inside the case. The electronic module includes a printed circuit board (7) having a first face with conductive paths, connected to the electronic circuit, and a second insulating face fixed to the second chemical substance. The electronic circuit is connected at output to a first connection pad connected to the cup. The electronic circuit is connected to the chemical substances by a second connection pad on a first tab (7′) and by a third connection pad on a second tab (7″) folded at 180° on the second face of the printed circuit board.
