A PADD (an acronym for Personal Access Display Device) is a hand-held computer interface technology commonly used throughout the Federation and many other civilizations throughout the galaxy, for the easy access and sharing of data. (TOS novel: The Fearful Summons)

In 2376, the crew of the USS da Vinci discovered a program created by a Vorta named Luaran which, when downloaded to a PADD, created a "sonic bullet" capable of killing the user. (SCE - Wounds eBook: Malefictorum)
