Thyristors are a type of semiconductor device with three or more terminals. In particular, TRIACs are a type of thyristor which act as two thyristors in a single package, connected in inverse parallel and can be used to trigger AC switching applications such as motor control and lamp dimming. The Q2015L6 is a type of TRIAC that specifically functions as an AC switch.

Working of the Q2015L6 is based on the traditional thyristor concept but with a major difference: it is a three terminal device where the gate is used to control the current flow across the device. This is how it allows for AC switching. This mechanism functions by using the gate impedance to guide the TRIAC into conduction. A positive gate voltage will cause the device to initially remain in a non-conductive state. When a certain positive voltage is reached, the device will then enter a low impedance, or ‘on’ state. The presence of a negative gate voltage will bring the device back into a non-conductive state. As the gate voltage goes through a full cycle to complete the circuit, the Q2015L6\'s three terminals are in-variably connected.

The main application of a Q2015L6 is for AC on/off switching, motor speed/torque control and lamp-dimming. These are specified for line-powered applications where the current load is low to low-middle power and controlled via a gate signal. Generally, the Q2015L6 is used in heating, motor control and other power distribution applications with power equipment carrying 110 and 230 VAC. It can also be used in DC circuits for applications such as electric brakes and LED lighting. For more intricate applications, the Q2015L6 can be specified as an AC regulator with a built-in zero-cross detector which allows easier and more stable control.

The Q2015L6 has become a favorite of engineers due to its combination of cost and performance, as well as its ability to offer bidirectional conduction. The Q2015L6 operates in an augmentative mode (also known as the \'descending slope\'), where the device conducts on a rising gate current, thereby reaching full conduction at near full turn on. Additionally, the device is relatively immune to false triggering, which makes it very suitable for automotive applications. The device can also handle switching of inductive loads, often found in motor control applications. Finally, due to its low thermal resistance and low capacitance, the Q2015L6 is often preferred in applications which require fast switching and fast turn-on response time.

Overall, the Q2015L6 is a reliable and capable device which is especially suited to AC switching applications where reactive, bidirectional, low to medium power control is required. The three-terminal structure of the Q2015L6 simplifies control and the device is both cost-effective and immune to false triggering. For line-powered applications, the Q2015L6 is certainly a device worth investing in.
