    摘要: A battery module and a method of manufacturing a battery module are provided. The battery module includes a plurality of current collectors configured to electrically connect battery cells of the battery module together, and a flex circuit. The battery module is configured to have a number of electrical connections between the plurality of current collectors and the flex circuit. The flex circuit comprises a number of connection terminals, each capable of being electrically coupled to a current collector of the plurality of current collectors. The number of connection terminals is greater than the number of electrical connections. The electrical connections are made between the plurality of current collectors and a subset of the connection terminals of the flex circuit.
