XBA is an instruction that exchanges the high byte (B) and low byte (typically called A) of the C accumulator. It works even in 6502 emulation mode. In 65816 native mode, its standard mnemonic is still "XBA" even when the accumulator is 16-bits wide. An alternative mnemonic is "SWA."
The negative flag will match the most significant bit of the new low byte (A) of the accumulator. The zero flag will be set if and only if the new low byte (A) of the accumulator is zero, otherwise it is cleared.
