"Firmware Numbers" are the last two hex digits [or 4 ASCII characters] in any Motronic EPROM file.   Example: 00 65   For every EPROM, there is a silver label with a 10 digit number.   This is the chip part number. For every chip part number, there is a corresponding "Firmware Number" located in the EPROM's data file.   It is located the last two hex bytes of the the EPROM's code.   This started when the very first Motronic design, the ML1.1, was converted to use  EPROM's.   Later, Its use was gradually fazed-out in OBDII files of the mid 1990's. 

I do not know what BOSCH calls them.... so I just gave it a name myself...  "Firmware Number".   Here are a few examples of "Firmware Numbers" and where they are located in the file. 

These last 4 characters in these files have been mistakenly called checksums, they are not checksums.

Here are some random binary files and the corresponding firmware numbers. Not the ascending order of the Firmware numbers and Bosch chip part number that they represent.
