XCE is a 65c816 instruction that exchanges the carry and emulation bits. It typically appears soon after the Reset Vector following a CLC, to switch the S-CPU into 65c816 native mode. The carry flag was chosen because:

  • it is easy to set and clear
  • it is used less frequently than the negative and zero flags
  • it can be tested with BCC and BCS
