Reading through the message archives, I see conflicting information on the SPI SSEL pin. Bill Knight says the SPI SSEL pin must be pulled low for the LPC210X to operate as an SPI master, but Aminder says it needs to be pulled to 3.3V. Page 127 of the user manual (that I have) implies that this pin could be used as a GPIO in SPI master mode, and the manual gives no mandate on the use of this pin in master mode. What should I do with this pin?
