Brake system and method of controlling the same

An electronic control system comprising:

• a brake module provided in each wheel of a vehicle;
• and
• a controller configured to perform braking control on the brake module in response to a pedal displacement signal corresponding to a movement of a brake pedal,
• wherein the controller comprises:
• a processor configured to output a braking control signal for the brake module;
• and
• a circuit protection module configured to stabilize power supplied to the controller and remove noise,
• wherein the circuit protection module comprises:
• at least one capacitor group comprising a plurality of capacitors connected to one another in parallel;
• and
• at least one circuit-breaking unit connected to the capacitor group and configured to control electrical connection of the capacitor group on the basis of a change in temperature when a failure of at least one of the plurality of capacitors is identified.

A method of controlling a brake system, which comprises a brake module provided in each wheel of a vehicle;

• and
• a controller configured to perform braking control on the brake module in response to a pedal displacement signal corresponding to a movement of a brake pedal,
• wherein the controller comprises:
• a processor configured to output a braking control signal for the brake module;
• and
• a circuit protection module configured to stabilize power supplied to the controller and remove noise, the method comprising:
• monitoring, by the processor, the circuit protection module connected to at least one capacitor group, which comprises a plurality of capacitors connected to one another in parallel, and comprising at least one circuit-breaking unit configured to control electrical connection of the capacitor group on the basis of a change in temperature when a failure of at least one of the plurality of capacitors is identified;
• and
• blocking the electrical connection of the capacitor group on the basis of a monitoring result.
