DESCRIPTION

       addlotrs creates a new transistor, and adds it to the list of transistors  pointed  to  by
       ptfig->LOTRS.  The  new  transistor  is added in front of the list, and becomes itself the
       list head.
       The type parameter can take six values :

              TRANSN              for a N channel transistor

              TRANSP              for a P channel transistor

              TRANSN_FAST         for a high speed N channel transistor

              TRANSP_FAST         for a high speed P channel transistor

              TRANSN_HVIO         for a low leakage N channel transistor

              TRANSP_HVIO         for a low leakage P channel transistor

       The x, y, width , length, ps, pd, xs and xd,  arguments fill respectivly the X, Y,  WIDTH,
       LENGTH, PS, PD, XS and XD fields.
       Four  connectors  are  created  each time a transistor is added, and the ptgrid, ptsource,
       ptdrain and ptbulk losigs are attached to the SIG field of the locon  of  the  appropriate
       connector.  The  connectors  names are grid, source, drain and bulk, their direction, DIR,
       are set to 'T', and their TYPE INTERNAL.  For details on the structures, see locon(3)  and
       lotrs(3).

RETURN VALUE

       addlotrs returns a pointer to the newly created transistor.

ERRORS

       "∗∗∗ mbk error ∗∗∗ illegal transistor type : type"
              The type is not a legal transistor type.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mlo.h"
       void n1_y() /∗ transistor netlist of an inverter ∗/
       {
       lofig_list ∗pt;
       losig_list ∗in, ∗out, ∗vdd, ∗vss;
          pt = addlofig("n1_y");
          addlocon(pt, "in", in = givelosig(pt, 0), IN);
          addlocon(pt, "out", out = givelosig(pt, 1), OUT);
          addlocon(pt, "vdd", vdd = givelosig(pt, 2), IN);
          addlocon(pt, "vss", vdd = givelosig(pt, 3), IN);
          addlotrs(pt, TRANSN, 0, 0, 6, 1, in, vss, out, vss, trn_n1_y);
          addlotrs(pt, TRANSP, 0, 0, 12, 1, in, vdd, out, vdd, trp_n1_y);
       }
