ec

BIOS .bin 32.0 MB Shared

A 32.0 MB binary named simply ec, with no model, board number or version anywhere in the name, so its origin cannot be confirmed from the label alone. Despite the name, a 32 MB size is typical of a full SPI BIOS image on a 256 Mbit chip rather than a small standalone embedded controller firmware. Open it in a hex editor or UEFITool to identify the platform, compare it with a dump of the original chip, and only write it with a programmer once you are sure it belongs to the same board.
