Abstract
A method of controlling an electro-mechanical brake device, includes: switching a central electronic control unit (ECU) to an awake mode based on a wake-up signal; transmitting a signal such that a wheel ECU is switched from a sleep mode to the awake mode; when a braking input is detected, supplying a current to a motor mounted on an electro-mechanical brake (EMB) using current control to generate a braking force; when a parking braking force is less than a required braking force, controlling the wheel ECU to release the parking braking force and generate the required braking force, and when the parking braking force is greater than or equal to the required braking force, releasing the parking braking force and maintaining the braking force generated in a wheel; when the braking force reaches the required braking force or the braking force is maintained, switching the current control to position control.
