LDY (Load Y) is a 65x instruction that loads a value into the Y index register. In immediate addressing only, LDY takes a total of 3 bytes when the index registers are 16 bits wide.

Syntax

LDY #const
LDY addr
LDY dp
LDY addr, X
LDY dp, X

Cycle Penalties

In direct page addressing modes, LDY takes another extra cycle if the low byte of the direct page register is nonzero.
