Design
Requirements
- Up to 300 mA supply (200 mA would likely be enough)
- 7-12 V DC output
- 120 V ac input
- Stable voltage reference of less than 5V (not needed if Arduino's internal reference is accurate enough, TBD)
Research
Non-isolated design could waste more power if Arduino is drawing less than the designed maximum output current. Isolated could lose a small amount of efficiency to transformer but would waste less power when the Arduino is drawing less than the designed maximum output current. For this application, isolated seems to be the way to go.
Power requirements for Arduino Mega (usually <70 mA, 200 mA max) and RepRap Discount Smart Controller (40-100 mA?). 300 mA max to power control and display circuits.
