OVERVIEW Electrohydraulic braking (EHB) systems are designed to allow electronic control of vehicle braking while retaining a reduced hydraulic system.
The hydraulic system functions as a reserve in the event of a failure in the electronic control.
The EHB control unit receives inputs from sensors connected to the brake pedal. In normal operation, a backup valve is closed and the controller activates the brakes of the wheel through an electric motor driven hydraulic pump. When the controller goes into a fail-safe mode, the backup valve is opened, which allows the brakes to be controlled through a conventional hydraulic circuit.KEY BENEFITS
• Reuses hydraulic system technology while incrementally building on the development of advanced electronic systems, such as electronic stability programs (ESP), traction control, and brake assist
• Uses software updates to simplify the calibration process by adjusting brake response and pedal feel
• Improves connectivity with other emerging systems, such as adaptive cruise control
• Removes the large vacuum servo to allow flexible installation
•
Features an anti-lock braking system (ABS) without feedback from the pedal
