disable SPI? Mega162

2010-08-09 by Jeff Blaine

My SPI is working fine.  But I just want to use it for part of a startup routeene.  And then disable it so that the MOSI line is available for other uses.  

I did not see anything in the data sheet preventing this but that blasted MOSI line wants to stay high even after I disable the SPI via setting SPE=0.

Wondered if there is some other "trick" to turning the SPI module off.  Or maybe it's on until reset, once initalized?

I must be overlooking something simple.  Seems setting SPE low should disable the SPI.  And designating MOSI as an output should reenable it''s use as a standard I/O pin...
