MCST develops microprocessors based on two different instruction set architecture (ISA): Elbrus and SPARC.

[3] MCST is the base organization of the Department of Informatics and Computer Engineering of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology.

[4] MCST develops the Elbrus processor architecture and the eponymous family of universal VLIW microprocessors based on it with the participation of INEUM [ru].

[8][9] In December 2024, Programmable logic controllers "PLC-Elbrus (based on the Elbrus-2S3 microprocessor) " of the holding company "Rostec Electronics" of the State Corporation Rostec have passed state registration and are included in the register of software and hardware complexes of the Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation.

This allows using the devices at critical information infrastructure facilities to create automated process control systems.
