The Program Bank Register (PBR or K) exists on the 65c816. It tells the processor which bank to fetch the next opcode from. It is 8 bits wide. It is cleared to zero on reset.[2] PHK pushes it onto the stack, but there is no PLK to pull it.

PBR is affected only by:[4]

Incrementing the program counter past FFFFh does not affect PBR.[4]

There is also a program bank register on the GSU.[1] It can be used to specify any mapped bank address.[3]
