BRIDGED BATTERY PACK SENSING MODULE FOR MULTIPLE ARRAYS

A battery pack sensing module includes a rigid printed circuit board that is to be carried by and bridge between a pair of battery cell arrays, a plurality of integrated circuits mounted on the rigid printed circuit board, and a pair of sense lead connectors at opposite ends of the rigid printed circuit board. Each of the sense lead connectors is electrically connected with at least one of the integrated circuits and can mate with a receiving connector of one of the battery cell arrays to establish an electrical connection between the receiving connector and the at least one of the integrated circuits.
