What other information do you need to know ?

Where are you actually getting these firmwares from ? Are these
firmwares just taken from windows drivers ?

 I did a quick find -name '*.bin' on my windows C partition, and I found these:

./Program Files/Qualcomm Atheros/Network
Manager/11AC/eeprom_ar6320_2p1_NFA344i.bin
./Program Files/Qualcomm Atheros/Network
Manager/11AC/eeprom_ar6320_2p1_NFA345i.bin
