What is a FIRMWARE file?

If you need to update your device, you use specialized programming tools such as the Nuvoton NuMicro ISP Programming Tool or STM32CubeProgrammer.
These files are not meant to be edited in a text editor because their binary format contains codes, checksums, and sometimes encryption for security.
