That is going to depend on a few things. You will need to check with your local DOT to see what the requirements are for trailer brakes. You will need to know the weight of your trailer as well.
Depending on the weight of your trailer will also affect how many brake axles are required.
I attached a couple help articles on adding brakes to a trailer for you to check out as well.
