(1) FTP from "vlsi-cad.isi.edu" using "anonymous" as login with any password
    the file "npn.mag".
    I have put a prelim. model file "bipolar.mod" there also. REMEBER this
    is PRELIMINARY DATA.

(2) You may use the model file to find the Rc of the corresponding NPN
    transistors with SPICE.

(3) One lesson we have learned: Do not use the minimum sized NPN
    transistor as depicted in the MOSIS' design rule file.
