LDX (Load X) is a 65x instruction that loads a value into the X index register. In immediate addressing only, LDX is a total of 3 bytes long when the index registers are 16 bits wide.
Syntax
LDX #const LDX addr LDX dp LDX addr, Y LDX dp, Y
Cycle Penalties
- In direct page addressing modes, LDX takes another extra cycle if the low byte of the direct page register is nonzero.
