* An Alarm is a low-level interface intended for precise timing.

* microseconds, etc), identified by a type. This prevents, e.g.,
* unintentionally mixing components expecting milliseconds with those
* expecting microseconds as those interfaces have a different type.
*
* <p>An Alarm's second parameter is its "width", i.e., the number of
* bits used to represent time values. Width is indicated by including
* the appropriate size integer type as an Alarm parameter.
*
* <p>See TEP102 for more details.
*
* @param precision_tag A type indicating the precision of this Alarm.
* @param size_type An integer type representing time values for this Alarm.
