Hello people.

Im trying to make a clipping indicators for both the positive and negative part of the signal.
I dont have any experience in make such a circuit before. So i google a bit, mess around some in ltspice and falstad.
What i ended up with was basically a window comparitor that has 3 states. To me this seems like a ok solution.
before i try to implement this in real life i like to know.

* Is this method bad?
* Is there a simpler and better solutions that i can use instead?

Simulation on falstad can be seen here. http://tinyurl.com/y89lrmk8
Here is a picture of the circuit.


Regards.

Do you need to diferentiate between high and low clip? If bot there are better approaches for sure

Thats my goal.

Then it seems like it might work, there are other posibilities but this looks fine I guess.

Looks OK.
I think one 556 would just about do it, with slightly different Control Voltages so that the 2 Trigger Voltages were slightly different.

556 version for tweaking.
