A complete model with a Matrix Converter (MC) linked to a doubly fed induction machine (DFIM) is described, proving that this kind of converter is suitable for use in power regenerative rigs. Besides contributing to the study of DFIM with MC, a fast way to describe all kinds of Space Vector Modulation (SVM) algorithms is presented. The modulator algorithm is supported theoretically and described in an S-Function of Matlab-Simulink, which reduces the design time and provides a way to implement the control code in new integrated circuits, such as FPGAs; in this sense, this paper contributes to the development of IPMs (Integrated Power Module). Platform modules have been analyzed showing the links between the entire platform (MC and a DFIM). Finally, the entire design has been verified by simulation results. %~
