ADC (Add with Carry) is 65x instruction that performs an addition. The accumulator is always both one of the addends and where the sum is stored. The operand serves as the other addend.

As there is no add-without-carry instruction, a CLC should be run (or the carry flag otherwise ensured to be clear) before an ADC, or else the sum will be one greater than expected.

After ADC runs, the carry flag will indicate whether the addition caused an unsigned overflow (sum greater than $FF or $FFFF depending on how wide the accumulator is). The zero flag will be set if the sum is zero and cleared otherwise.

If the decimal flag is set, then binary coded decimal addition is performed (with the sum being adjusted automatically), otherwise binary addition.

Cycle Penalties

ADC takes an extra cycle for each of the following:

if the accumulator is 16 bits wide, in all addressing modes
when utilizing the direct register, if the low byte of the direct register is nonzero
in certain addressing modes if adding an index crosses a page boundary

If you only need to add one, consider INC instead.
