Abstract
In an electronic brake system, a brake pedal is operated by a driver according to a requisite braking force. Wheel cylinders equipped at respective vehicle wheels generate braking forces at the respective vehicle wheels. A master cylinder applies a brake fluid pressure to generate the respective wheel cylinder pressures. A pedal operation amount detection portion detects a stroke amount of the brake pedal. The brake pedal and the master cylinder are isolated from each other. The motor is driven based on the pedal operation amount detected by the pedal operation amount detection portion and then controls the brake fluid pressure.
