A method for managing a control software of a braking system of a vehicle, the method including downloading, a vehicle-adapted control software from a server via a wireless interface of the vehicle, and flashing a control unit of the braking system with the vehicle-adapted control software.

This vehicle braking control device executes automatic braking control to adjust a braking torque on the basis of a vehicle target deceleration value corresponding to a distance between the vehicle and an object in front of the vehicle, and executes anti-skid control to suppress excessive wheel slip by adjusting the braking torque on the basis of a wheel speed. The braking control device calculates an actual deceleration value corresponding to the target deceleration value, and executes feedback control on the basis of the target deceleration value and the actual deceleration value such that the actual deceleration value approaches the target deceleration value. The configuration is such that a control gain of the feedback control is reduced when anti-skid control is executed. Further, the configuration may be such that execution of feedback control is prohibited when anti-skid control is executed.

Disclosed herein are an apparatus for controlling a vehicle and method thereof. An apparatus for controlling a vehicle, the apparatus includes an inputter configured to receive a start operation signal from a starter, receive an AVH mode operation signal from an Automatic Vehicle Hold(AVH), receive Wheel information, longitudinal acceleration information and AVH switch information from an Electronic Stability Control(ESC), and a determiner configured to determine whether the AVH mode operation signal is an ON operation signal when the start operation signal is an OFF operation signal, and determines whether the at least one of the wheel information, the longitudinal acceleration information and the AVH switch information is in a normal state when the AVH mode operation signal is the ON operation signal and a controller configured to control an Electronic Parking Brake(EPB) to perform parking in the EPB when the at least one of the wheel information, the longitudinal acceleration information, and the AVH switch information is in the normal state.

A test unit for an actuation device of an electrical apparatus is configured as an ASIC and includes a test circuit configured to generate a voltage test sequence, a memory configured to store a response pattern, and an analysis unit configured to compare the response pattern with a reference pattern.

Disclosed a vehicle brake system in which the structure required when transmitting a wake-up signal in response to a pedal input can be further simplified, the vehicle brake system comprising: a pedal travel sensor (PTS) which senses whether pressure is being applied to the pedal and the amount of pressure being applied; and a wake recognition circuit which is connected to the PTS such that electricity can flow directly in both directions, and which receives a signal from the PTS and wakes up an electronic control unit (ETU), wherein the PTS delivers the output signal to the wake recognition circuit if the output signal is at least a preset value.
