Hi folks,
Does anyone know what this is? It's obviously a transformer coil(s) but
image search and googling those markings produces nothing:

I think the LA number is the number for the ferrite 'pot core' not the
complete transformer.
It looks to be part of a switching regulator circuit. Possibly to generate
other voltages from the 5V line. Can you post a picture of more of the PCB
around it.
Its second output goes via an IN4148 to the -24V regulator:

The top black wire is from the PSU and goes left-right (in pairs) GND, +5,
+12, -12. I'd do an underside pic too but the board's covered in analyser
wires at the mo.
The -24V regulator can be seen just above the 4 blue caps, The regulator
that can be seen under the black wire is a 7812. The LF351N has -12V present
at its bias outputs, the opamp to its right has no markings helpfully.
Cheers,
