In an electric booster according to one embodiment of the present invention, a brake pedal is connected to a sun gear of a differential transmission mechanism corresponding to a planetary gear mechanism. An electric motor is connected to a ring gear, and an output rod is connected to a planetary carrier, and the output rod is connected to a piston of a master cylinder. When the brake pedal is operated to rotate the sun gear, planetary pinions rotate and revolve around the sun gear. As a result, the planetary carrier rotates to move the output rod forward to push the piston. As a result, a hydraulic pressure is generated in the master cylinder. At this time, the electric motor is controlled according to the rotation of the sun gear to rotate the ring gear so that the ring gear follows the sun gear. In this manner, a servo force of the electric motor is applied to the rotation of the planetary carrier.
