I would like to re-purpose the transformer from this 2013 MacBook Pro power supply, but I can't seem to locate the specific transformer they used in this power supply, and therefore I don't know how the terminals should be connected. I'm assuming that it converts AC down to 24 volts, but the last time I attempted to connect a salvaged transformer from which I could not locate its datasheet, I let the smoke out...
Here is a photo of the board. If the bottom image were slid upward it would overlay the top image and the pins of all components would match up. I also labeled the pins of the transformer so that when we discuss it, we can reference the pins accurately.
What I am trying to find out, is which pins can I connect to 120 so that I can measure the other side of the transformer and determine what the output voltage is?
Thank you for any input you can provide,
