Abstract: An organ-type electronic brake pedal apparatus enables a pedal pad to be manipulated when a driver tries to manipulate the pedal pad by rotating his/her foot in the manner of manipulating an organ-type pedal or when the drivers tries to manipulate the pedal pad by stretching his/her foot forwards in the manner of manipulating a pendant-type pedal. The organ-type electronic brake pedal apparatus inhibits the pedal pad from being manipulated when the driver tries to manipulate a pedal arm part, which is positioned close to a hinge pin of the pedal pad.
