In this paper the design and construction of a Matrix Converter Permanent Magnet Motor Drive for a demonstration A320 Electro-Hydrostatic (EHA) Aileron Actuation System is described. The aileron is a primary flight surface due to it being critical to flight stability. Actuation of this type must exhibit the highest integrity to ensure safe operation of the aircraft. The converter has been built using a 35 Amp IGBT Matrix Converter module and includes closed loop vector control. Practical results from the testing of this converter are presented.
