2.3.2. External Scrubbing

In Agilex™ 5 devices, the external scrubbing feature allows you to recover non-correctable SEU error.

To enable this feature, turn on Enable External Scrubbing in the Device and Pin Options dialog box of the Quartus® Prime software.

There are three main steps for performing external scrubbing:
  1. Generating the sector-based .rbf using the quartus_pfg command line.
  2. Performing the external scrubbing using the Fault Injection Debugger tool.
Note: External scrubbing and partial reconfiguration are mutually exclusive.
