Here is a way to go:

• Ctrl+H
• Find what: (?<=[a-z])(?=[A-Z0-9])
• Replace with: A SINGLE SPACE
• CHECK Match case
• CHECK Wrap around
• CHECK Regular expression
• Replace all

Explanation:

(?<=[a-z]) # positive lookbehind, make sure we have a small letter before current position (?=[A-Z0-9]) # positive lookahead, make sure we have an uppercase or a digit after
