The Parallel IO peripheral is a general purpose parallel interface that can be used to connect to external devices such as LED matrix, LCD display, Printer and Camera. The peripheral has independent TX and RX units. Each unit can have up to 8 or 16 data signals plus 1 or 2 clock signals.1
The TX and RX driver of Parallel IO peripheral are designed separately, you can include driver/parlio_tx.h or driver/parlio_rx.h to use any of them.

Different ESP chip series might have different numbers of PARLIO TX/RX instances, and the maximum data bus can also be different. For more details, please refer to {IDF_TARGET_NAME} Technical Reference Manual > Chapter Parallel IO (PARLIO) [PDF]. The driver does not forbid you from applying for more driver objects, but it returns error when all available hardware resources are used up. Please always check the return value when doing resource allocation (e.g., :cpp
parlio_new_tx_unit).↩
