The need for a timing diagram for a microprocessor is, primarily, to allow you to properly design the interface logic that will support the microprocessor.

You need to know what lines are used to execute various data transfers, what are the timing of those lines with respect to each other, and how the microprocessor expects the external logic to behave.

You can also use the timing diagram to understand how the microprocessor functions and, particularly, to know how long each instruction will take.
