NOVELTY - Forming protection circuit modules (PCMs) for a battery, comprises positioning a flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) on a fixing surface; positioning die-type chip circuit devices on the main body of the unit pattern forming regions of the FPCB; positioning a protective layer over at least a portion of the FPCB so as to cover at least some of the components of the PCMs formed on the FPCB; and separating the FPCB from the fixing surface after the die-type circuit devices and protective layer has been positioned on the FPCB so as to separate individual PCMs from the fixing surface.    USE - The methods are useful for forming PCMs for battery; and for forming PCM of secondary battery (all claimed) for safely protecting circuit devices.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Forming protection circuit modules (PCMs) for a battery, comprises positioning a flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) on a fixing surface where the FPCB includes unit pattern forming regions that each define a main body and an external terminal; positioning die-type chip circuit devices on the main body of the unit pattern forming regions of the FPCB so that PCMs can be formed on the FPCB; positioning a protective layer over at least a portion of the FPCB so as to cover at least some of the components of the PCMs formed on the FPCB; and separating the FPCB from the fixing surface after the die-type circuit devices and protective layer has been positioned on the FPCB so as to separate individual PCMs from the fixing surface. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is a method of forming PCM of a secondary battery, comprising positioning at least one FPCB having a main body and at least one external terminal on a fixing member; positioning one or more circuit devices in the form of die-type chips necessary for the PCM on to the main body of the at least one FPCB; connecting internal terminals to the at least one FPCB where the internal terminals are adapted to be connected to one or more electrodes of a bare cell supplying electrical energy; positioning a protective layer over at least a portion of the at least one FPCB so as to cover at least some of the PCM circuit devices; and separating the at least one FPCB with the one or more circuit devices and the protective layer from the fixing member.
