A calculator is typically a portable electronic device used to perform calculations, ranging from basic arithmetic to complex mathematics.
===TI-83 / TI-84 series===
TI-SmartView is the official commercial emulator released by Texas Instruments, with a trial period of typically 15 days.
Using third-party emulators requires a copy of the operating system of the calculator. It could be officially downloaded from [https://education.ti.com/en/software/search here], but a reason is required. It's unclear whether they will actually look into it -- "The OS of my calculator is damaged and requires recovery" could be a fairly reasonable one.
====Generations of TI-83/84 hardware====
There are actually 3 generations of TI-83/84 hardware, despite all of them being categorized under the same TI-83/84 model number. Notice that assembly programs written for one generation won't be able to run on a TI-83/84 with another generation of hardware.
* Monochrome Z80: Featuring Zilog Z80 microprocessor, monochrome LCD, and AAA batteries. Including TI-83/84 Plus (Sliver Edition) and all their variations such as TI-83 Plus.fr, TI-84 Plus Pocket etc.
* Color Z80: Featuring Zilog Z80 microprocessor but with color LCD and rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. There is only one model in this generation: TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition.
* eZ80: Featuring Zilog eZ80 microprocessor with color LCD and rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. Including TI-83 Premium CE (Python Edition) , TI-82 Advanced Python Edition, and TI-84 CE (Python Edition).
====Orion TI-84 Plus====
None of the emulators could fully emulate this model yet. MAME lists this model as a "bootleg", with its basic functionalities works, but the speech module is left completely undumped and unemulated.

TI-89 could be considered as a miniaturized version of TI-92/Voyage200, as they share literally the exact same hardware and software architecture (that is also why some TI-89 emulators could also emulate TI-92/Voyage200), while TI-92/Voyage200 is huge in size thanks to their horizontal screen and QWERTY keyboard.
TI Flash Studio is the official tool for developing flash apps for TI-89/92 series calculators, which comes with an emulator. Unfortunately, this tool has been long abandoned and is no longer compatible with newer versions of Windows. Using third-party emulators requires a copy of the operating system of the calculator. It could be officially downloaded from [https://education.ti.com/en/software/search here], but a reason is required. It's unclear whether they will actually look into it -- "The OS of my calculator is damaged and requires recovery" could be a fairly reasonable one. <div style="maxoverflow-x:auto;width:100%; overflow:auto;">{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;width:100%"

===TI-Nspire series===
TI-Nspire is the flagship series of Texas Instruments graphics calculators, equipped with QVGA monochrome/color LCDs, ARM-based processors, a mini laptop-style trackpad for controlling the mouse cursor, and a computer algebra system (depending on model) inherited and enhanced from TI-89's AMS.
TI-Nspire™ (CX) (CAS) Student Software and TI-Nspire™ (CX) (CAS) iOS app are the official commercial emulators released by Texas Instruments. Using third-party emulators requires boot1, boot2, manuf, OS, and optionally diag dumps of the calculator. The OS could be downloaded officially from [https://education.ti.com/en/software/search here], but boot1, boot2, and manuf have to be dumped from an actual calculator with [https://tiplanet.org/forum/archives_voir.php?id=3829&play=0 PolyDumper]. ====Clickpad and Touchpad====Monochrome TI-Nspire comes with two different kinds of keyboards, depending on batch: [https://i.ytimg.com/vi/IM0guppEnqk/hqdefault.jpg Clickpad and Touchpad]. The major differences besides the appearances are:*Clickpad features a D-pad, while Touchpad comes with a mini laptop-style trackpad for controlling the mouse cursor.*The mouse cursor will only be available when it's absolutely needed (such as in grapher) with Clickpad, while it's always available and most of the elements in the operating system are clickable with Touchpad.*The D-pad on the Clickpad can register presses from all directions (despite being marked with four arrows), while the D-pad on Touchpad only registers four directions and a "click" (center) presses as there is physically only one button beneath the touchpad.*As fewer buttons are available, some functionalities that could be achieved with a single press on Clickpad have to be executed via sub-menus activated by specific buttons on Touchpad. All emulators could only emulate Touchpad keyboard for now. <div style="overflow-x:auto;width:100%">{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;width:100%"

===Scientific and financial models===
Most of the TI's scientific and financial calculators run on ASICs.
Older MultiView calculators are based on T4X cpus while the newer MathPrint models are based on nx-u16/100 microcontrollers.
Unfortunately, there aren't community-driven, open-sourced emulators for TI's scientific and financial calculators yet. You can still get some of the official emulators at the following site:
[https://education.ti.com/en/software/search/computer-software TI software download]
Notice that emulators for regional models, such as TI-30X Prio MathPrint (Germany model), may not be presented on the current page due to region settings. You'll have to switch to the correct region via the region switcher on the top-right corner of the webpage to download them.
==Hewlett-Packard==
Older models run on in-house developed 4-bit "Saturn" processors. Newer models have an unusual practice that emulates the Saturn processor via an ARM processor, so technically speaking those calculator models are actually emulation boxes.

===scientific and financial models===
Just like monochrome graphic calculators, HP scientific and financial calculators are also a big family of products sharing similarities while each product has its unique features (besides the eps-6800 based HP SmartCalc series which are basically just ripoffs of Casio Natural-V.P.A.M. series calculators).
Older models run on in-house developed 4-bit "Nut" processors. Some newer models have an unusual practice (especially for scientific calculators) that emulates the Nut processor via an ARM processor so technically speaking those calculator models are actually emulation boxes, while some other models use ASICs as their kernel.

==Casio==
Most of the modern Casio graphic calculators run on 32-bit Hitachi SuperH-3/4 processors, while scientific, programmable, and financial models run on nx-u8/100 based ASICs. More retro ones come with all kinds of different hardware architectures, like VX-4 and PB-1000 that runs on Hitachi HD61700A processor, or fx-7000G that runs on NEC μPD1007G-008.
Community-driven, open-sourced emulators exist for some retro models, but unfortunately not they are still in relatively primitive stages for modern models yetnow. You can still get official emulators at the following site:
* [https://edu.casio.com/softwarelicense/index.php Official emulators (90-day trial, for graphic/legacy scientific models)]
* [https://classpad.net/intl/features/ Classwiz CW series online emulators (paid service)]
Community-driven emulators require ROM files. As scientific and financial models have no programming and data transfer functionalities, the ROM has to be acquired either by extracting from official emulators, or copying the ROM into VRAM then analyzing the pixels on the display into binary via [https://tiplanet.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=26476 Hackstring] which is a kind of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbitrary_code_execution arbitrary code execution]. <div style="maxoverflow-x:auto;width:100%; overflow:auto;">{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;width:100%"
