The Commodore C110, introduced in September 1971, was Commodore's first calculator. It was an OEM version of the Bowmar 901B, which is recognised as one of the first pocket-sized calculators in the world, and the first manufactured in the US. Commodore manufactured the C110 for the British market, and it was the cheapest electronic calculator in Britain at the time, costing £79 (around £931 in March 2023).

The C110 is a four-function calculator with an 8-digit LED screen, made by Bowmar. It uses a number of components from Texas Instruments including a "Klixon" keypad and the TMS0103 Integrated circuit. It was powered by six rechargeable AA batteries.
