Post-manufacture compensation for a sensing offset can be provided, at least in part, by selectively exposing one of a pair of cross-coupled transistors in a sense amplifier to a bias voltage selected to cause a compensating shift in a characteristic of the exposed transistor. Such exposure may be advantageously provided in situ by causing the sense amplifier to sense values purposefully skewed toward a predominate value selected to cause the compensating shift. In some realizations, purposefully skewed values (e.g., value and value_1) are introduced directly into the sense amplifier. In some realizations, an on-chip test block is employed to identify and characterize sensing mismatch.
