I was trying to figure out the GPIO input speed limitations but cant find it in the datasheet. I see OUTPUT TIMING in section 8.9.6.1 and wanted that same information about the input. Is there another document that has this information?

TJ,
That would be covered by footnote (2) from the GPIO Input Timing Requirements:
(2) For tw(GPI), pulse width is measured from VIL to VIL for an active low signal and VIH to VIH for an active high signal.
Being an asynchronous digital input, the primary factor is the voltage level of the input signal.

Maybe something is getting lost in the conversation. To restate my question.
How slowly can my rise time be on the GPIO pin? Some integrated circuits can be damaged by slow rising signals i want to make sure I'm within the tolerance of the input of the GPIO specs for this device.
Hi TJ, Tommy is out of office but should be back tomorrow to follow up. In general I don't think any harm will be done to the TMS320F28379D even with a very slow input but if the input slew rate is so slow that the signal might be near the VIL or VIH voltage for multiple clock cycles, you definitely could see unexpected behavior.
