aids the original source signal

Output Current Limit
The current that an op amp can supply to a load is limited (typically +/-25 mA)
If a small-value load draw a current outside the limit, the output waveform becomes clipped
33
Slew Rate Limitation
The output voltage of an op amp cannot change in magnitude at a rate exceeding the slew rate limit
