Single-phase matrix converter (SPMC) is a device that contains eight stage of switching. For AC to DC converter, only certain stage is use for the process. Each switching stage has IGBT, IGBT driver and other electronic component. Pair of IGBT is called bi directional switch. 5V DC supply is needed to generate to the SPMC. An AC to DC converter is construct and supplied of 20V(rms) input voltage, 50 Hz, supplying a passive R and RL load operated with modulation index of 30% and 50% and PWM fiequency 3kHz and 6kHz. MATLAB 2008 software is use as medium to design and simulate the model of Single Phase Matrix Converter (SPMC). Digital switching and PWM are generate using Peripheral Interface Controller (PIC). The result is demonstrated at the hardware and the result is display at oscilloscope and multimeter. The MATLAB show the behaviour of the matrix converter operations and to program into the PIC is using MPLAB IDE software in C Languange.
