Firmware archive for the 2011 MacBook Pro 13-inch, model A1278, on Apple logic board 820-2936, with the trailing b in the name probably indicating the board revision. Apple 820-numbered boards each use a specific EFI image, and the SPI flash dump is commonly reprogrammed when a machine will not boot or shows firmware lock issues. Read and keep the original chip contents, since they carry the serial and system data. Confirm the 820 number on the PCB and that the dump size matches the flash chip before writing.

Compressed archive — the usual wrapper for a schematic + boardview pair or a BIOS + EC set.
Back up your own chip before writing any dump, and match the full board number and revision. Flashing guide →
