Abstract
A battery pack includes a battery module, a plurality of temperature sensors, a temperature data generating unit, and a control unit. The battery module has a plurality of battery cells. The temperature data generating unit detects battery temperatures from the temperature sensors and generates battery temperature data including temperature values corresponding to the battery temperatures. The control unit determines whether or not the temperature sensors are defective based on the battery temperature data, and controls the battery module based on temperature values corresponding to temperature sensors determined not to be defective.
