A battery pack that powers electrified vehicles consists of individu-
al battery cells and modules organized in series and parallel. A cell
is the smallest unit of a battery, comprised of 4 key components
including cathode, anode, electrolyte and separator. The charac-
teristics of a battery cell play a pivotal role in the overall perfor-
mance of electrified vehicles. There are various forms of a cell such
as prismatic, cylindrical, and polymer, and Samsung SDI offers
prismatic battery cells for automotive applications. A module con-
sists of multiple cells connected in series and/or parallel, encased
in a mechanical structure. The compact and stackable design of
Samsung SDI prismatic battery cells facilitates easy cell modularity
and is ideal for various configurations. A battery pack is assembled
by connecting multiple modules together in series or parallel with
sensors and controllers including battery management systems
and thermal management systems and then encased in a housing
structure as a final battery product designed specifically for each
vehicle model.
