The archive includes EC/KBC firmware alongside the BIOS image, so both the main system firmware and the embedded controller code are provided in one set. Technicians use a dump like this to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after BIOS corruption or a failed update, and the EC firmware is useful when the keyboard controller needs restoring too.

Questions about this file
How do I flash this BIOS dump?
Write it to the SPI flash chip with a programmer such as the CH341A and a SOIC8 clip. Read and keep the original contents first, and check that the chip size matches the dump.
Will this BIOS work on my board?
Only if the board number and revision match: Lenovo L520. Dumps from a different board or revision can leave the board dead.
What does “clean ME” mean?
The Intel ME region in the dump has been reset, so it can be used on another board of the same model. Keep your original dump and transfer serial numbers if needed.
