What do you mean by 'second output'? How many pins are used on this
'transformer'? If only 2 it is just a simple inductor, again possibly part of
a swtiching regulator.

What about that IRF523? That is a power MOSFET transistor and might well
be the chopper in the switching regulator circuit.

Why do you assume the other 8 pin IC is an op-amp?
