6502 Microprocessor

  • Revision 1.02 by _Bnu.
  • Revision 1.03 by _Gist.
  • Wikification by Karatorian.

Most of the following information has been taking out of the Commodore 64 Programmers Reference Manual simply because it was available in electronic form and there appears to be no difference between this documentation and the 6502 documentation, they are both from the 6500 family after all. I've made changes and additions where appropriate.

In theory you should be able to use any code you can find for emulating the 6510 (the C64 processor).

The Registers Inside The 6502 Microprocessor

Almost all calculations are done in the microprocessor. Registers are special pieces of memory in the processor which are used to carry out, and store information about calculations. The 6502 has the following registers:

The Accumulator

This is the most important register in the microprocessor. Various machine language instructions allow you to copy the contents of a memory location into the accumulator, copy the contents of the accumulator into a memory location, modify the contents of the accumulator or some other register directly, without affecting any memory. And the accumulator is the only register that has instructions for performing math.

The X Index Register

This is a very important register. There are instructions for nearly all of the transformations you can make to the accumulator. But there are other instructions for things that only the X register can do. Various machine language instructions allow you to copy the contents of a memory location into the X register, copy the contents of the X register into a memory location, and modify the contents of the X, or some other register directly.

The Y Index Register

This is a very important register. There are instructions for nearly all of the transformations you can make to the accumulator, and the X register. But there are other instructions for things that only the Y register can do. Various machine language instructions allow you to copy the contents of a memory location into the Y register, copy the contents of the Y register into a memory location, and modify the contents of the Y, or some other register directly.

The Status Register

This register consists of eight "flags" (a flag = something that indicates whether something has, or has not occurred). Bits of this register are altered depending on the result of arithmetic and logical operations. These bits are described below:

    Bit No.       7   6   5   4   3   2   1   0
                  S   V   R   B   D   I   Z   C
C – Carry Flag
This holds the carry out of the most significant bit in any arithmetic operation. In subtraction operations however, this flag is cleared—set to 0—if a borrow is required, set to 1—if no borrow is required. The carry flag is also used in shift and rotate logical operations.
Z — Zero Flag
This is set to 1 when any arithmetic or logical operation produces a zero result, and is set to 0 if the result is non-zero.
I — Interrupt Disable Flag
This is an interrupt enable/disable flag. If it is set, interrupts are disabled. If it is cleared, interrupts are enabled.
D — Decimal Mode Flag
This is the decimal mode status flag. When set, and an Add with Carry or Subtract with Carry instruction is executed, the source values are treated as valid BCD (Binary Coded Decimal, eg. 0x00–0x99 = 0–99) numbers. The result generated is also a BCD number.
B — Break Flag
Used only in the flags pushed to the stack. If an instruction (BRK or PHP) caused the push, bit 4 is true (1) in the pushed flags. If a hardware interrupt (/NMI or /IRQ) pushed the flags, bit 4 is false (0).
R — Reserved
Not used. Always pushed to the stack as true (logical 1).
V — Overflow Flag
When an arithmetic operation produces a result too large to be represented in a byte, V is set.
S — Sign Flag
This is set if the result of an operation is negative, cleared if positive. Called "N" in official 6502 data sheets.

The most commonly used flags are Z, C, S, V.

The Program Counter

This contains the address of the current machine language instruction being executed. Since the operating system is always "RUN"ning in the Commodore VIC-20 (or, for that matter, any computer), the program counter is always changing. It could only be stopped by halting the microprocessor in some way.

The Stack Pointer

This register contains the location of the first empty place on the stack. The stack is used for temporary storage by machine language programs, and by the computer.

Addressing Modes

Instructions need operands to work on. There are various ways of indicating where the processor is to get these operands. The different methods used to do this are called addressing modes. The 6502 offers 11 modes, as described below.

Immediate

In this mode the operand's value is given in the instruction itself. In assembly language this is indicated by "#" before the operand.

 eg.  LDA #$0A - means "load the accumulator with the hex value 0A"

In machine code different modes are indicated by different codes. So LDA would be translated into different codes depending on the addressing mode.

 In this mode, it is: $A9 $0A

Absolute and Zero-page Absolute

In these modes the operands address is given.

 eg.  LDA $31F6 - (assembler)
      $AD $31F6 - (machine code)

If the address is on zero page—i.e. any address where the high byte is 00—only 1 byte is needed for the address. The processor automatically fills the 00 high byte.

 eg.  LDA $F4
      $A5 $F4

Note the different instruction codes for the different modes. Note also that for 2 byte addresses, the low byte is store first,

 eg. LDA $31F6 is stored as three bytes in memory, $AD $F6 $31.

Zero-page absolute is usually just called zero-page.

Implied

No operand addresses are required for this mode. They are implied by the instruction.

 eg.  TAX - (transfer accumulator contents to X-register)
      $AA

Accumulator

In this mode the instruction operates on data in the accumulator, so no operands are needed.

 eg.  LSR - logical bit shift right
      $4A

Indexed and Zero-page Indexed

In these modes the address given is added to the value in either the X or Y index register to give the actual address of the operand.

 eg.  LDA $31F6, Y
      $D9 $31F6
      LDA $31F6, X
      $DD $31F6

Note that the different operation codes determine the index register used. In the zero-page version, you should note that the X and Y registers are not interchangeable. Most instructions which can be used with zero-page indexing do so with X only.

 eg.  LDA $20, X
      $B5 $20

Indirect

This mode applies only to the JMP instruction - JuMP to new location. It is indicated by parenthesis around the operand. The operand is the address of the bytes whose value is the new location.

 eg.  JMP ($215F)
 Assume the following -        byte      value
                               $215F     $76
                               $2160     $30

This instruction takes the value of bytes $215F, $2160 and uses that as the address to jump to - i.e. $3076 (remember that addresses are stored with low byte first).

Pre-Indexed Indirect

In this mode a zer0-page address is added to the contents of the X-register to give the address of the bytes holding the address of the operand. The indirection is indicated by parenthesis in assembly language.

 eg.  LDA ($3E, X)
      $A1 $3E
 Assume the following -        byte      value
                               X-reg.    $05
                               $0043     $15
                               $0044     $24
                               $2415     $6E

Then the instruction is executed by:

 (i)   adding $3E and $05 = $0043
 (ii)  getting address contained in bytes $0043, $0044 = $2415
 (iii) loading contents of $2415 - i.e. $6E - into accumulator
 Note a) When adding the 1-byte address and the X-register, wrap around
         addition is used - i.e. the sum is always a zero-page address.
         eg. FF + 2 = 0001 not 0101 as you might expect.
         DON'T FORGET THIS WHEN EMULATING THIS MODE.
      b) Only the X register is used in this mode.

Post-Indexed Indirect

In this mode the contents of a zero-page address (and the following byte) give the indirect addressm which is added to the contents of the Y-register to yield the actual address of the operand. Again, inassembly language, the instruction is indicated by parenthesis.

 eg.  LDA ($4C), Y

Note that the parenthesis are only around the 2nd byte of the instruction since it is the part that does the indirection.

 Assume the following -        byte       value
                               $004C      $00
                               $004D      $21
                               Y-reg.     $05
                               $2105      $6D

Then the instruction above executes by:

 (i)   getting the address in bytes $4C, $4D = $2100
 (ii)  adding the contents of the Y-register = $2105
 (111) loading the contents of the byte $2105 - i.e. $6D into the
       accumulator.
 Note: only the Y-register is used in this mode.

Relative

This mode is used with Branch-on-Condition instructions. It is probably the mode you will use most often. A 1 byte value is added to the program counter, and the program continues execution from that address. The 1 byte number is treated as a signed number - i.e. if bit 7 is 1, the number given byt bits 0-6 is negative; if bit 7 is 0, the number is positive. This enables a branch displacement of up to 127 bytes in either direction.

 eg  bit no.  7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0    signed value          unsigned value
     value    1 0 1 0 0 1 1 1    -39                   $A7
     value    0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1    +39                   $27

Instruction example:

   BEQ $A7
   $F0 $A7

This instruction will check the zero status bit. If it is set, 39 decimal will be subtracted from the program counter and execution continues from that address. If the zero status bit is not set, execution continues from the following instruction.

 Notes:  a) The program counter points to the start of the instruction
 after the branch instruction before the branch displacement is added.
 Remember to take this into account when calculating displacements.
         b) Branch-on-condition instructions work by checking the relevant
 status bits in the status register. Make sure that they have been set or
 unset as you want them. This is often done using a CMP instruction.
         c) If you find you need to branch further than 127 bytes, use the
 opposite branch-on-condition and a JMP.

Instruction Operation

The following code has been taken from VICE for the purposes of showing how each instruction operates. No particular addressing mode is used since we only wish to see the operation of the instruction itself.

    src : the byte of data that is being addressed.
    SET_SIGN : sets\resets the sign flag depending on bit 7.
    SET_ZERO : sets\resets the zero flag depending on whether the result
               is zero or not.
    SET_CARRY(condition) : if the condition has a non-zero value then the
               carry flag is set, else it is reset.
    SET_OVERFLOW(condition) : if the condition is true then the overflow
               flag is set, else it is reset.
    SET_INTERRUPT :  }
    SET_BREAK :      }  As for SET_CARRY and SET_OVERFLOW.
    SET_DECIMAL :    }
    REL_ADDR(PC, src) : returns the relative address obtained by adding
               the displacement src to the PC.
    SET_SR : set the Program Status Register to the value given.
    GET_SR : get the value of the Program Status Register.
    PULL : Pull a byte off the stack.
    PUSH : Push a byte onto the stack.
    LOAD : Get a byte from the memory address.
    STORE : Store a byte in a memory address.
    IF_CARRY, IF_OVERFLOW, IF_SIGN, IF_ZERO etc : Returns true if the
               relevant flag is set, otherwise returns false.
    clk : the number of cycles an instruction takes. This is shown below
               in situations where the number of cycles changes depending
               on the result of the instruction (eg. Branching instructions).
