2.1.1. On-Chip Sensitivity Processor

When you implement an on-chip sensitivity processor, the Advanced SEU Detection IP core interacts with user-supplied external memory access logic to read the .smh stored in external memory.
Once it determines the sensitivity of the affected CRAM bit, the IP core can assert a critical error signal so that the system provides an appropriate response. If the SEU is not critical, the critical error signal may be left un-asserted.

On-chip sensitivity processing is autonomous: the FPGA determines whether an SEU affected it without using external logic. On-chip sensitivity processing requires some FPGA logic resources for the external memory interface.
