Hello, Mr Ridha Ghayoula
The ones you mentioned are actually inbuilt timers but 3 more types of timers can be designed in embedded systems that were formerly present in PLC's. They are:
- On Delay Timer (Programmable)
- Off Delay Timer (Programmable)
- Retentive Timer (Programmable)
In ARM architecture they are vastly used nowadays in industries. Hope that information will be useful for you. Good Luck!
