I want to take the bin file and identify the micro based on it.

I saw this done on a web page a few years back but can't find

it ......Anyone got any leads ?

If you also have access to the chip (perhaps with proprietary markings
or the markings removed) you can determine which pins have power/ground/
clock. The pin count and basic pinout may be enough to identify the
family, if not the exact processor.

Otherwise, look at the code at the reset address and also in the
interrupt vector/jump table.
