The PP 02 personal computer was intended for students of secondary vocational schools and was supposed to enable comprehensive teaching of the basics of microcomputer technology. The basis was a personal computer PP 01 with a branched I-41 bus, to which a separate box equipped with ventilation, a power supply and a cassette with a branched 8-bit microcomputer bus I-41 for 8 boards of the microcomputer kit SM 50/40-1 was connected. This cabinet also included DRAM and EPROM memory expansion boards up to 64 KB, external memory management on 130 mm floppy disks with a capacity of 2 × 160 KB, parallel and serial port boards (IRPR or IRPS channels) and boards for connecting to a controlled object (JSP) .

The PP 02 personal computer consisted of three parts:

Due to the initial lack of drives for external memory on 130mm flexible disks, a cheaper version of PP 02 was also created, equipped instead of these drives with cassette memory KPP 800, which used magnetic tape cassettes of the Philips type.
