My question it is very simple: I have seen that there are several packages like, Graf35, and Casio ClassWiz font.

Is there any package that could generate this kind of drawing? I remember to have seen one like it some time ago, but I don't remember the name of the package.

    It's not pixelated like yours but I liked tipfr, see page 11. CTAN also has ticollege.

    You could try the LCD package. It defines an extended alphanumeric character set, with each character constructed using dots set in a 5 x 7 matrix, mimicking an LCD display. See How to transcript codes from HP 50G in LaTeX for an example.

  • @DJP Thank you very much for your contribution to my application. I don't know where you've seen it these years...😩😩😩 but in my mind I remember seeing something similar. I sometimes like to use something that is old.

  • @Sebastiano You said, "I don't know where you've seen it these years..."; the original post on tipfr is from 2015 here

I can't really explain why but I find this topic quite fascinating. To gather more information you could search CTAN:

Suitable packages

The search for calculator yields

  • Package calculator
    Use LaTeX as a scientific calculator

  • Package ticollege
    Graphical representation of keys on a standard scientific calculator

  • Package tipfr
    Produces calculator's keys with the help of TikZ

  • Package graph35
    Draw keys and screen items of several Casio calculators

Then there is the keyword lcd which only yields one usable package:

  • Package lcd
    Alphanumerical LCD-style displays

Other TeX.SE answers

That's all I could find so far. As you can see, there are many different ways to do this.
