A transceiver comprises a transmitter configured to generate a test signal and a receiver comprising a measurement circuit configured to receive the test signal from the transmitter and to determine a level of the test signal. A controller is configured to control a variable supply voltage generator to set a supply voltage for the transmitter to a predetermined value and to lower a supply voltage for the receiver until the level of the test signal within the receiver falls below a receiver threshold. A storage element is configured to store the supply voltage corresponding to the receiver threshold as the minimum supply voltage for the receiver.
