	Out of all PDP-11 processor variants, MAME currently emulates only T-11 single-chip CPU, intended for embedded applications. DEC VT240 terminal (and its clone, [[Driver:Soviet terminals\|Elektronika MS 7105]]) uses it, along with another Elektronika system, MS 0515 -- an unusual choice for a desktop. MAME emulates both of them. Other professional PCs (DVK series), educational machine (UK-NC aka Elektronika MS 0511) and home computers (BK-001x series) used K1801 chipset, which is not emulated.

	Soviet Union built many systems with Digital Equipment Corporation's PDP-11 ISA -- some were straight-up clones of PDP-11 models, down to the chipset, others reimplemented the architecture -- see http://www.dbit.com/pub/pdp11/faq/faq.pages/Soviet11s.html for background information. They were used much like the originals -- for timesharing, industrial process control, data acquisition and so on, including personal computing and embedded use.
