A brake control device to be applied to a vehicle having a hydraulic brake generating a hydraulic braking force, which is a braking force converted from a fluid pressure to a wheel of the vehicle, and an electric parking brake generating an electric braking force, which is a braking force different from the hydraulic braking force, on the wheel by a wheel brake mechanism driven by a motor. The brake control device includes an electric parking brake controller for determining a current target value, which is a target value of an electric current through the motor, by using a target braking force, and for controlling the electric parking brake by using the current target value. The electric parking brake controller is configured to estimate the fluid pressure in the hydraulic brake by using a current detection value, which is a detection value of an electric current through the motor.
A brake control device to be applied to a vehicle, the vehicle having a hydraulic brake capable of generating a hydraulic braking force which is braking force converted from a fluid pressure to a wheel of the vehicle;
