                             Introduction                             
======================================================================
Electronika, also spelt Elektronika and Electronica, () is the brand
name used for many different electronic products built by factories
belonging to the Soviet Ministry of Electronic Industry, including
calculators, electronic watches, portable games, and radios. Many
Electronika designs were the result of efforts by Soviet engineers,
who were working for the Soviet military-industrial complex but were
challenged with producing consumer goods which were in great shortage
in the Soviet Union. The brand is still in use in Belarus.

Electronika MK-71
Most notable is a line of calculators, which started production in
1968.  The Electronika calculators were produced in a variety of sizes
and function sets, ranging from large, bulky four-function calculators
to smaller models designed for use in schools operating on a special,
safer 42V standard (like the MK-SCH-2).  As time progressed,
Electronika calculators were produced that supported more advanced
calculations, with some of the most recent models even offering full
programmability and functionality similar to today's American-designed
graphing calculators.

The Electronika brand is now used by Novosibirsk RPN programmable
calculators Electronika MK-152 (:ru:Электроника МК-152) and
Electronika MK-161 (:ru:Электроника МК-161).
