I have a need to generate 9V at 10mA that is totally isolated from a 12V car battery. That is no common negative connection between the car battery and the negative of the 9V supply. Any pointers on how I can do this would be appreciated!

Buy a 9 volt battery?

Depending on how much you want to spend (low power will be cheaper), you could use an isolated DC-DC converter eg Farnell sells a Traco TEL
2-1212 9-18V in 12V out 2Watt for about $35.A linear reg on the output can get you to the 9V since a ready-made 9V output is less common.

Scrounge a 5V-9V DC-DC converter module from an old 10base2 NIC and step down the input using an LM7805.

How about using the SRS-1209 listed on this page:

Farnell have a whole range of isolated DC-DC converters.
102-1604 for example is a 12V to 9V isolated converter @ 111mA. Bit pricey though. You could use a cheaper 12V-12V one and use a 9V regulator on the output.Alternatively, use a battery. A D cell battery pack would last several months at 10mA continuous.

The links below shows something close, 9v @2ma, maybe you can beef it up a bit to get 10ma.
Here's something from National.
Or from Linear Tech
If all else fails try googling "isolated flyback".

Thanks for feedback guys. Most helpful and I now have some options!
