I've been trying to work this out myself, but I want to make sure. I have the circuit below measuring a voltage level from 10 to 15V divided down by three equal resistors A, B and C. What sort of values should they be to make sure the ADC works, in terms of input impedance? Ideally I'd use an op-amp buffer here, but I don't have the space on my PCB, due to my stupid on-the-fly designing and not thinking enough.

(ASCII art not really necessary, but it's kind of fun).
