This lecture covers the management of time in microcontrollers, focusing on understanding the duration of instructions, using clocks on AVR and MSP430, predicting instruction duration, active waiting loops, calibration using devices like frequency meters, oscilloscopes, and timers, and managing multiple tasks efficiently. It also explores the implementation of a cyclic traffic light system, the challenges of adding multiple LEDs with different frequencies, absolute time tracking, and the corresponding Arduino procedures like delay, millis, and micros.
