Abstract
Disclosed are systems, devices, and methods for connecting a flexible circuit to a battery. Conductive pads are formed simultaneous with mounting and reflowing circuitry components on a flexible circuit, where the conductive pads serve as preformed tabs capable of being joined to terminals of a battery. The flexible circuit can be bent in a manner so that the conductive pads are positioned adjacent to the positive and negative terminals of a battery, such as a coin cell battery. The conductive pads can be attached to the terminals to form a cost-efficient and space-efficient design connecting the battery to the flexible circuit.
