I would like to print 1 as 1.00x10^0 by using ScientificForm/PaddedForm. I've tried with

ScientificForm[{N@Sqrt[2]*1*^2, N@\[Pi], 1}, 3, NumberFormat -> (Row@{PaddedForm[#1, {2, 2}], "\[Times]", 
  Superscript["10", ToString[#3]]} &)]

but I've missed both the exponent (the zero) and the right padding zeros.

Can someone help me? Thanks, Fabio

N.J.Evans answer in comments:

PaddedForm[{N@Sqrt[2]*1*^2, N@π, 1.0}, {3, 2}, 
 ExponentFunction -> (1 Quotient[#, 1] &), 
 NumberFormat -> (Row@{#1, "×", 
      Superscript["10", ToString[#3]]} &)]
