when i said change of input at a fast rate i meant high frequency only... i didnt talk about large signal... afaik i know feedback has nothing to do with slew rate... feedback doesnt have a curative effect on slew rate...
The slew rate of an opamp is specified
with feedback ! (Normally, with 100% fedback). That means: feedback is the key element for the occurence of slewing.
The effect is as follows:
The input signal brings the
first stage into saturation with the consequence that the compensation cap is loaded with a constant current. This effect is reponsible for the slew rate with a quasi-linear rise of the output voltage. After a certain (small) delay time the feedback path works and brings the first stage back to normal/linear operation.
