Abstract
Provided is a battery device having high overcurrent detection current accuracy that suppresses increases in a resistance value of a charge/discharge path and in a manufacturing cost. A first charge/discharge control device is configured to monitor a charge/discharge current with a voltage generated across both ends of a charge/discharge control switch, and a second charge/discharge control device is configured to monitor the charge/discharge current with a voltage generated across both ends of a current sensing resistor. A field effect transistor forming the charge/discharge control switch is selected based on a desired ON resistance value. The charge/discharge control switch of the first charge/discharge control device includes a field effect transistor having the desired ON resistance value, and a charge/discharge control switch of the second charge/discharge control device includes a field effect transistor having an ON resistance value other than the desired ON resistance value.
