"One of the key elements of any system which uses embedded computing devices are the timers. These timers have several different functions depending on the system. Some of these include a real-time clock used by the system and software, initiating events, scheduling events, allowing for time delays between events, allowing for time-division multiplexing, and other time-related functions."
