ASL (Arithmetic Shift Left) is a 65x instruction that shifts every bit of a value left one bit (multiplication by two). The most significant bit is shifted into the carry flag. The least significant bit is cleared.
The size of the accumulator determines how many bits are shifted (8 or 16).
Syntax
ASL ASL A ASL addr ASL dp ASL addr, X ASL dp, X
Cycle Penalties
- Except in accumulator addressing, ASL takes two extra cycles when the accumulator is 16 bits wide
- In direct page addressing modes, ASL takes another extra cycle if the low byte of the direct page register is nonzero.
