Notes: The TI-30 series started with the TI-30, an ordinary scientific LED calculator. But Texas Instruments kept extending this line, turning it not into just a model number but a whole calculator series. Trying to make it the non-programmable scientific calculator for school use.

So far I’ve found mention of the following types (probably incomplete):

The TI-30XIIB and its variant, the TI-30XIIS which has a different colour scheme and a solar cell, introduced in 2005 is still for sale as I write this in 2024.

F◄►D function (and other fraction keys) can be used to turn decimals into fractions and vice versa. For instance, type the number ".125" followed by using the F◄►D function and the equivalent fraction "1/8" is shown.

This is a scientific calculator with statistical functions and five memory locations "A, B, C, D and E".

To enter exponentials an extra keypress is required: EE is the 2nd function of the x−1 key.
