Unlike the МК-52 from the МК-61 is available at the first additional expansion memory module (512 bytes) and connectivity with expanded memory unit sewn in them programs.

This calculator uses the bracket-free (inverse) notation and stack programming language, which contains about 75 statements. This is an extension and continuation of a series of languages Б3-21, Б3-34, for which the backward compatibility. Attempted creation and further development of this family of languages (МК-161 and -152), but by the Soviet calculators is a mediocre relationship. The flowering of the national interest in this class of machines was in the late 70's - 80's of the last century.

Many of undocumented features of these machines once attracted many enthusiasts to investigation of it. In addition to practical purposes, programming has become a kind of exercise in skill and craftsmanship of Russian programmers.
