This second generation TI-306 makes use of smaller solar cells compared to the original version.

Dismantling this TI-306 manufactured in October 1988 by Nam Tai Electronics in China reveals a design 100% identical to its predecessor.

In 1989 the production of a similar calculator was started in the USA and it appeared as TI-7200.
