1 definition found From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]: mode bit n. [common] A flag, usually in hardware, that selects between two (usually quite different) modes of operation. The connotations are different from { flag} bit in that mode bits are mainly written during a boot or set-up phase, are seldom explicitly read, and seldom change over the lifetime of an ordinary program. The classic example was the EBCDIC-vs.-ASCII bit (#12) of the Program Status Word of the IBM 360.
