Re: square waveform (555)

So usinf a 6v supply, instead of getting 6v high 0v low. I get 6v high,
5.99v, 5.98 ... 5.89, (there is a small slope at the high)

5.89V counts as damned close to 6V if you ask me. You're lucky to get that
much with silicon, a 0.6V drop is more typical (and you'll find it under a
stiffer load).

I don't know why it would drop. It could be real, some effect internal to
the 555, a power supply issue (is +V varying by 0.1V as well?), or something
with your meter, or how you're measuring it.
