The original TI-30, introduced in 1976 was Texas Instruments’ first low cost scientific calculator. Similar to most pocket calculators of the era, the display uses bubble LED technology, however the display only has an eight digit mantissa, which is reduced to five digits when exponents are used. | The original TI-30, introduced in 1976 was Texas Instruments’ first low cost scientific calculator.
