However, it is usually better to use a dedicated comparator for this purpose, as its output has a higher slew rate and can reach either power supply rail.

A major difference is the opamp used ( the LM308 ), known for its poor slew rate; it largely accounts for the sonic difference between the two pedals.
23.
Such a situation can occur when an amplifier is overdriven causing clipping or slew rate distortion when, for a moment, the amplifier characteristics alone and not the input signal determine the output.
24.
One incident involving " slew rate rev limiters " as a form of basic traction control caused a number of the company's products to be banned from a variety of sanctioning bodies.

The turret mounts a single M134 Minigun with 25 degrees of elevation, 90 degrees of depression, and 180 degrees of motion in azimuth, with a slew rate of 80 degrees per second.
26.
As an example, the LT1494 micropower op-amp consumes 1.5 microamp but has a 2.7 kHz gain-bandwidth product and a 0.001 V per microsecond slew rate.
27.
Electronic circuits may specify minimum or maximum limits on the slew rates for their inputs or outputs, with these limits only valid under some set of given conditions ( e . g . output loading ).
28.
In other cases, a " maximum " slew rate is specified in order to limit the high frequency content present in the signal, thereby preventing such undesirable effects as ringing or radiated EMI.
29.
These also protect the device's internal circuitry from short circuits or transients that may appear on the RS-232 interface, and provide sufficient current to comply with the slew rate requirements for data transmission.

Further works of Otala and other authors found the solution for TIM distortion, including increasing slew rate, decreasing preamp frequency bandwidth, and the insertion of a lag compensation circuit in the input stage of the amplifier.
