Interpreting AMD/ATI Video BIOS

Many AMD/ATI Video BIOS information in GPU-Z have information between parenthesis.

I have attached a window image of GPU-Z 0.6.0 showing Sapphire Radeon HD5570 information with the information in parenthesis blocked out.

What does the information between parenthesis represent?

Is the Board ID represented within the Video BIOS?
