As single-ended signaling is implemented in higher-speed communications, accurate and consistent reading of the data signal becomes increasingly challenging. In particular, single-ended links can be limited by insufficient timing margins for sampling a received input signal. A single ended receiver provides for improved timing margins by adjusting a reference voltage used to sample the input signal. A calibration pattern is provided to the receiver as the input signal, and the reference voltage is adjusted toward a median value of the signal. As a result, the receiver provides for reading received single-ended data in a manner enabling accurate data transfer at higher speeds.
