A disclosed battery management system for wireless charging includes a communication circuit and a controller. The communication circuit receives information on a first state of charge (SOC) of the first battery module, a second SOC of the second battery module, and a third SOC of the third battery module. The controller controls the first wireless charging between the first battery module and the second battery module and the second wireless charging between the second battery module and the third battery module for balancing between the first SOC, the second SOC, and the third SOC. The first wireless charging is to wirelessly transmit power from one of the first battery module and the second battery module to the other battery module. The second wireless charging is to wirelessly transmit power from one of the second battery module and the third battery module to the other battery module.

A battery system with a passive thermal management system is formed from a plurality of battery cells arranged on a printed circuit board assembly. In some cases, the printed circuit board assembly may include a flexible printed circuit board that is folded along an axis forming an upper and lower portion of the printed circuit board assembly. The thermal management system may include fire-blocking foam members individually attached to each battery cell. The battery cells may be arranged in a grid-like pattern to allow for a spacing arrangement between the battery cells to keep a failing battery cell from negatively affecting an adjacent battery cell. In addition, the flexible printed circuit card may include a fuse for each battery cell to shut off any current flow to a faulty battery cell if it begins to fail causing current flow to exceed beyond a predetermined current limit. The battery system may be a conformal wearable battery.
