2. Vacuum servo - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_servo

   A vacuum servo is a component used on motor vehicles in their braking system, to provide assistance to the driver by decreasing the braking effort. In the US it is commonly called a brake booster . A vacuum servo, also known as a power booster or power brake unit, uses a vacuum, usually supplied by the engine, to multiply the driver's pedal ...

3. Sensotronic Brake Control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensotronic_Brake_Control

   Sensotronic Brake Control (SBC) is an electro-hydraulic brake system developed by Daimler and Bosch. In this system, the wheel brake cylinders of a vehicle are operated through a servomechanism, offering precise and responsive braking. The SBC system was first introduced on the R230 SL-class, which was released in Europe in October 2001. [1]

4. Power brakes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_brakes

   Vacuum boosters provide brake assist for the driver by multiplying the force out of the booster creating more than the force that was used to push on the brake pedal. The booster works by pulling the air out of the booster chamber with a pump or other vacuum source (typically the engine's intake manifold [1]), creating a low-pressure system ...

5. Hydraulic brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_brake

   The vacuum booster or vacuum servo is used in most modern hydraulic brake systems which contain four wheels, the vacuum booster is attached between the master cylinder and the brake pedal and multiplies the braking force applied by the driver.

6. Electronic brakeforce distribution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_brakeforce...

   FS: Parking Brake. Electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD or EBFD) or electronic brakeforce limitation (EBL) is an automobile brake technology that automatically varies the amount of force applied to each of a vehicle's wheels, based on road conditions, speed, loading, etc, thus providing intelligent control of both brake balance and overall ...

7. S-cam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-cam

   An S-cam is part of a braking system used in heavy vehicles such as trucks and wheeled machinery. It consists of a shaft, usually around 4 to 25 inches long, turned at one end by means of an air-powered brake booster and lever with an S-shaped cam at the wheel end. Turning the shaft pushes the brake shoes against the drum, producing friction.

8. System basis chip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Basis_Chip

   A system basis chip (SBC) is an integrated circuit that includes various functions of automotive electronic control units (ECU) on a single die. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It typically includes a mixture between digital standard functionality like communication bus interfaces and analog or power functionality, denoted as smart power.
