ASUS firmware archive shared by the X556UF and X556UJ notebooks, intended for mainboard revision 2.0 according to the name. These two variants sharing one board makes the image interchangeable between them when the revision matches. The 3.85 MB ZIP is meant for reflashing the BIOS SPI chip with an external programmer after a failed update or corruption leaving the machine without display. Check the revision printed on the PCB, dump and keep the original chip first, since it may contain the serial and keys, and confirm the image fits the chip size.
