Claim 17:
18. The method of claim 11, including:
determining a first offset voltage of the receive circuit, wherein the first offset voltage corresponds to a first error rate of the receive circuit;
determining a second offset voltage of the receive circuit, wherein the second offset voltage corresponds to a second error rate of the receive circuit that is lower than the first error rate of the receive circuit;
determining a noise metric in accordance with the first offset voltage and the second offset voltage; and
determining a predicted third offset voltage of the receive circuit in accordance with the noise metric and the second offset voltage, wherein the predicted third offset voltage corresponds to a third error rate of the receive circuit, and the third error rate corresponds to a target error rate and the predicted third offset voltage corresponds to a voltage margin;
wherein the receive circuit is configured to receive data signals utilizing a voltage margin parameter corresponding to the predicted third offset voltage, to produce output signals, output by the receive circuit.
