One promising topology is the multiphase matrix converters, which enable the implementation of a single-stage AC\/AC power conversion system with bidirectional power flow capability. In this paper, we present the implementation of indirect control for a practical sample of the direct matrix converter. To reduce the overall cost of the control solution for these types of converters, we utilized low-cost FPGA and DSP. The usage of only DSP itself was not possible due to low number of available PWM output needed for 3 \u00d7 5 MxC driving. Another reason is commutation, which must be precise and fast to avoid any hazardous states in the converter. Due to these problems, the authors decided to implement an algorithm of a combination of DSP and FPGA, where FPGA is used for time critical operations. The indirect algorithm treats the converter as two separate parts, the rectifier and the inverter, with the DC-LINK being fictitious. The matrix converter is composed of compact modules, and the entire system is verified. The practical verification demonstrates that matrix converters can produce a wide range of output frequencies and achieve input power factor control. Finally, we compare and review the practical model with the simulation model, examining efficiency and other parameters.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23073581","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,30]],"date-time":"2023-03-30T01:31:30Z","timestamp":1680139890000},"page":"3581","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Practical Implementation of the Indirect Control to the Direct 3 \u00d7 5 Matrix Converter Using DSP and Low-Cost FPGA"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0894-7090","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michal","family":"Pra\u017eenica","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mechatronics and Electronics, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, University of Zilina, 010 01 Zilina, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6643-4045","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Patrik","family":"Resut\u00edk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mechatronics and Electronics, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, University of Zilina, 010 01 Zilina, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7294-0438","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Slavom\u00edr","family":"Ka\u0161\u010d\u00e1k","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mechatronics and Electronics, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, University of Zilina, 010 01 Zilina, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"30","DOI":"10.1109\/TIA.2004.841021","article-title":"Five-Phase Permanent-Magnet Motor Drives","volume":"41","author":"Parsa","year":"2005","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
