An apparatus comprising a first circuit module and a second circuit module. The first circuit module may be configured to communicate with a vehicle over a first bus. The first circuit module (i) generates one or more first brake control signals in response to one or more command inputs and (ii) is powered by a first power source. The first brake control signals provide control of hydraulic flow and pressure applied to a first one or more brake calipers in a vehicle. The second circuit module may be configured to communicate with the vehicle over a second bus. The second circuit module (i) generates one or more second brake control signals in response to the one or more command inputs and (ii) is powered by a second power source. The second brake control signals provide control of hydraulic flow and pressure applied to a second one or more brake calipers. The first calipers and the second calipers brake different wheels on the vehicle such that braking on at least two wheels of the vehicle operate using only one of the first circuit module or the second circuit module to provide redundant control of the one or more brake calipers.
