Abstract
The power supply device includes: battery block in which a plurality of secondary battery cells is connected in series and/or in parallel to each other; circuit board on which a protection circuit that protects secondary battery cells constituting battery block is mounted; and exterior case that houses battery block and circuit board. Exterior case has facing part that directly faces circuit board thicker than at least a portion of a non-facing part that is another part. Accordingly, forming the part directly facing circuit board in exterior case so as to be relatively thick makes it possible to improve heat resistance and reduce influence on the outside when circuit board reaches a high temperature.
