<p>The <code>timer</code> module exposes a global API for scheduling functions to
be called at some future period of time. Because the timer functions are
globals, there is no need to call <code>require(&#39;node:timers&#39;)</code> to use the API.</p>
<p>The timer functions within Node.js implement a similar API as the timers API
provided by Web Browsers but use a different internal implementation that is
built around the Node.js <a href="https://nodejs.org/en/docs/guides/event-loop-timers-and-nexttick/#setimmediate-vs-settimeout">Event Loop</a>.</p>

<p>By default, when an immediate is scheduled, the Node.js event loop will continue
running as long as the immediate is active. The <code>Immediate</code> object returned by
<a href="#setimmediatecallback-args"><code>setImmediate()</code></a> exports both <code>immediate.ref()</code> and <code>immediate.unref()</code>

</div><p>Returns an async iterator that generates values in an interval of <code>delay</code> ms.
If <code>ref</code> is <code>true</code>, you need to call <code>next()</code> of async iterator explicitly
or implicitly to keep the event loop alive.</p>
<ul>
<li><code>delay</code> <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Data_structures#Number_type" class="type">&lt;number&gt;</a> The number of milliseconds to wait between iterations.
<strong>Default:</strong> <code>1</code>.</li>
<li><code>value</code> <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Data_structures#Data_types" class="type">&lt;any&gt;</a> A value with which the iterator returns.</li>
<li><code>options</code> <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object" class="type">&lt;Object&gt;</a><ul>
<li><code>ref</code> <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Data_structures#Boolean_type" class="type">&lt;boolean&gt;</a> Set to <code>false</code> to indicate that the scheduled <code>Timeout</code>
between iterations should not require the Node.js event loop to
remain active.
<strong>Default:</strong> <code>true</code>.</li>
<li><code>signal</code> <a href="globals.html#class-abortsignal" class="type">&lt;AbortSignal&gt;</a> An optional <code>AbortSignal</code> that can be used to
cancel the scheduled <code>Timeout</code> between operations.</li>
