The Program Status Word is an 8-bit register on the SPC700 that stores the values of status flags. They are typically listed in this order: NVPBHIZC. More verbosely:

Flag Name Bit Position
Negative Flag bit 7
Overflow Flag bit 6
Direct Page Flag bit 5
Break Flag bit 4
Half-carry flag bit 3
Interrupt Enable Flag bit 2
Zero Flag bit 1
Carry Flag bit 0

Both the PUSH and POP commands can operate on the PSW.
