parralel connector programming using ESP8266

[yefj]

Hello,I have this phase shifter component which has a connector called "parralel".
Is there a way i could program it using my esp8266 microcontroller?
i know UART SPI I2C but this "parralel" is tottaly new to me.

Parallel just means all the bits are presented at once on different pins. Should be easy with an ESP8266, make six of the pins outputs and output the required pattern of 1 and 0 on them. The only thing you will have to be careful of is the voltage levels, the ESP8266 outputs 3.3V as logic '1' but the HMC642A needs it to be VDD +/- 0.2V. You will probably need a level shifter to raise the ESP's output voltage to 5V.
