1. An electronic pedal apparatus comprising:
an accelerator pedal module including an accelerator pedal pad;
a brake pedal module including a brake pedal pad;
a pedal housing to which the accelerator pedal module and the brake pedal module are pivotably mounted while being spaced from each other in a leftward-rightward direction thereof;
an accelerator pedal detecting unit mounted in the pedal housing and the accelerator pedal module to detect pivotal movement of the accelerator pedal module;
a brake pedal detecting unit mounted in the pedal housing and the brake pedal module to detect pivotal movement of the brake pedal module;
a printed circuit board (PCB) mounted in the pedal housing to generate signals related to pedal functions of a vehicle upon receiving signals from the accelerator pedal detecting unit and the brake pedal detecting unit; and
an accelerator pedal haptic motor and a brake pedal haptic motor respectively mounted to the accelerator pedal pad and the brake pedal pad to generate haptic signals under control of the PCB in a response that the accelerator pedal pad and the brake pedal pad are pivoted by operation force applied thereto by a driver.
