1. A secondary battery, comprising:
a positive electrode,
a negative electrode, and
a separator interposed between the negative electrode and the positive electrode,
wherein the negative electrode comprises: a negative electrode current collector; and a negative electrode active material layer on at least one surface of the negative electrode current collector,
wherein the negative electrode active material layer comprises a mixed active material comprising a carbonaceous active material and a Si-based active material, and
wherein the secondary battery is configured to be controlled by setting a lower limit of state-of-charge (SOC) during operation of the secondary battery depending on a weight mixing ratio of the Si-based active material to the carbonaceous active material and a capacity ratio of the Si-based active material to the carbonaceous active material.
