The ADCs should be properly designed and evaluated to ensure proper performance. The analog-to-digital converters have input impedance and bandwidth requirements which could lead to memory cross-talk and significant sample-and-hold (S+H) circuit settling errors.
The diagram below outlines the ADC Input Model, where Cp describes the parasitic input capacitance, Ron describes the sampling switch resistance, Ch describes the sampling capacitor, and Rs describes the nominal source impedance. The data sheet documents the ADC per-channel parasitic capacitances that can help in deciding which ADCs to use. Note that the acquisition window duration can be adjusted for each SOC by adjusting ACQPS or lowering the sampling frequency, or a combination of both. To evaluating the driving circuit, simulate it in TINA-TI to ensure correct performance and settling.
