The Safe Operating Area (SOA) of a battery is a set of electrical and thermal limits defined by the manufacturer of a battery. The battery must be kept within these limits to guarantee safe operation. The SOA of a battery typically consists of at least three dimensions: temperature, voltage, and current.
