Slewing in Audio Amplifiers of the Thompson Topology

In a paper published in Electronics World and Wireless World in September 1994 Douglas Self gave an account of the slew asymmetry inherent in the most widely implemented audio amplifier topology: the two-stage Thompson circuit­­. However, in Michael Kiwanuka’s opinion this explanation was in error. In his article, Kiwanua addresses what he feels are deficiencies in the original analysis and provides his own views on the matter.
