I am trying to measure the voltage across a burden resistor attached to a current-sense transformer using a differential ADC.
The current sense transformer will operate at ~250 KHz.

My current design is based on Figure 2 on page three of "Driving High-Speed Analog-to-Digital Converters" (https://www.ti.com/lit/an/slaa416a/slaa416a.pdf) from Texas Instruments.
I am planning to use the ADC10065

1) Is tying the COM pin to an external reference bias voltage the correct way to interface the ADC10065 with a current transformer?
2) Is there a better way to measure AC voltages from a current sense transformer?

Your circuit looks reasonable and the Vcom biasing seems good. The data sheet: https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/adc10065.pdf , shows 18R resistors instead of 5R, and a 25pf cap across the ADC input.

P.S. What sort of BW are you looking for around the, I assume, center frequency of 250kHz?
