u-boot: elf file, includes both machine code and symbol tables
(function names, etc)
u-boot.bin: raw machine code in binary image.
u-boot.srec: raw machine code in srecord format.

u-boot: Use with symbolic debugger (gdb)
u-boot.bin: flash verbatim into ROM
u-boot.srec: flash into ROM using srec loader
