Abstract
In a brake pressure control system for ABS control, traction control or vehicle motion control, a control unit controls each of pressure control solenoid valves in a PWM (pulse width modulation) control mode to prevent pulsation in the wheel cylinder pressure during the presence of a predetermined temperature or pressure condition, and a non-PWM control mode in the absence of the predetermined condition. The control unit includes a process section such as a computer and a PWM switch section including subsections each for a unique one of the solenoid valves. The process section has a single PWM port connected through a PWM signal line to each subsection of the PWM switch section.
