Silverlight 4 Equivalent to .NET Timer Control

Basically I'm wanting to insert a dynamic clock in my project. Right now I'm using the dateTime control which is fine but it's static. I need the clock to change digits with each second. In c# there is a Timer control that I would be able to use to make this dynamic clock possible. However, in Silverlight 4 I have not been able to locate any kind of Timer Control whatsoever to use in building this dynamic clock.

I didn't know if I was just looking in the wrong place or if it's right under my nose and I'm just missing it or what. Also, I assume using a timer control would be the best, however if there开发者_运维技巧's a better approach to this please let me know that as well.
