Realization of specified performance levels depends upon a number of factors external to the ADC itself, including proper design of any necessary support circuitry. The analog input drive circuitry is especially critical, because it can degrade the inherent ADC dynamic performance if not designed properly. Because of various process and design-related constraints, it is generally not possible to make the input of a high speed sampling ADC totally well-behaved, ., high impedance, low capacitance, ground-referenced, free from glitches, impervious to overdrive, etc. Therefore, the ADC drive amplifier must provide excellent ac performance while driving what may be a somewhat hostile load (depending upon the particular ADC selected). The trend toward single-supply high speed designs adds additional constraints. The input voltage range of high speed single-supply ADCs may not be ground referenced (for valid design reasons), therefore level shifting with single-supply op amps (which may have mon-mode input and output ranges) is usually required, unless the application allows the signal to be ac coupled. Although there is no standard high speed ADC input structure, this section addresses the mon ones and provides guidelines for properly designing the appropriate input drive circuitry. Some sampling ADCs also require external reference vol
