Abstract
A receiver includes signal lanes to receive associated data bit streams, and a control module. The signal lanes each include configurable equalization modules to provide a selectable compensation value to the associated data bit stream. The control module performs back channel adaptations on each data bit stream to achieve a target bit error rate for the associated signal lane, determines a most common set of compensation values from the performance of the back channel adaptations, determines whether the compensation value is within a predetermined boundary for that selectable compensation value, and provides an alert when a first compensation value of the most common set of compensation values is not within the predetermined boundary for the first compensation value.
