RT Journal Article T1 Experimental assessment of IGBT and SiC-MOSFET based technologies for matrix converter using predictive current control A1 Toledo Gallardo, Sergio Ramón A1 Maqueda, Edgar Marcial A1 Rivera, Marco A1 Gregor Recalde, Raúl Igmar A1 Caballero Morilla, David Domingo A1 Gavilán Amarilla, Federico José A1 Rodas Benítez, Jorge Esteban A2 Universidad Nacional de Asunción - Facultad de Ingeniería A2 Universidad de Talca - Faculty of Engineering AB Matrix converters are devices that allow the management of bidirectional flows of energy, reduced size, increased useful life and high efficiency in wind schemes. In this paper we present the experimental results obtained after the application of a predictive current control technique for two matrix converters feeding isolated loads. One scheme is based on IGBT technology and the other on SiC-MOSFET technology. The results obtained reflect the correct functioning of the proposals, reaching a current control working up to 2 kW of power. Finally some comparisons in terms of power consumption and total harmonic distortion are presented.
