STX (Store X) is a 65x instruction that stores the value of the X index register. If X is 16-bit, its high byte is stored to the effective address plus one.
No flags are affected.
Syntax
STX addr STX dp STX dp, Y
Cycle Penalties
- STX takes one additional cycle when the index registers are 16 bits wide, in all addressing modes.
- In both direct page addressing modes only, STX takes another additional cycle if the low byte of the direct page register is nonzero.
