+*****************************************************
+:mod:`ntptime` --- Network Time Protocol (NTP) Client
+*****************************************************
+
+.. module:: ntptime
+   :synopsis: Network Time Protocol (NTP) Client
+
+This module provides a very simple SNTP client.  It fetches the current time
+from a server on the Internet, or from a server on a local network.
+
+To use this module, a MicroPython variant/build with network capabilities must
+be installed, and the ntptime module must be enabled.
+
+For details of the SNTP protocol, see RFC 4330.
+
+All times are in UTC.  There is no timezone support in this module, although
+you could apply your own timezone adjustment to the returned UTC times.
+
+This module only provides time with 1-second resolution.
+
+This module does not make any attempt to account for network latencies.
+On a normal internet connection, this won't matter, especially given the
+1 second resolution.  On a high-latency internet connection, you will have to
+increase the default 1 second request timeout for this module to work at all,
+and then the time will be slightly wrong due to the time the response takes to
+travel from the NTP server to this client.
+
+There is no special handling of leap seconds.  This probably means that time
+will jump by 1 second when a leap second happens.  But some NTP servers may
+do "leap smearing" instead.  Given that the resolution is only 1 second
+anyway, leap seconds are unlikely to cause any extra issues.
+
+There is no security whatsoever.  An attacker who wants to change the time
+of your system, can send forged responses to your system.  If any of them
+arrive after the NTP request was sent, but before the genuine NTP response
+is received, then the time set by the attacker will be used.  Note that for
+Internet-facing devices, the attacker does not even need to spoof their IP
+address for this attack to work, this module does not check the sender of the
+packet in any way.  A typical home NAT firewall may make the attack slightly
+harder, requiring an attacker to spoof their IP address, but attackers can
+do that.
+
+This module does not do any sanity checking on the returned time to detect
+faulty or malicious NTP servers.
+
+This module does not support the "Kiss-o'-Death Packet" defined in RFC4330.
+
+This module does not suffer from the Y2036 bug.  It supports timestamps up
+to and including the year 2159.  It does suffer from a Y2160 bug, which will
+need fixing closer to that time, if MicroPython is still being used.
+
+For example::
+
+    # Print the current time, as seconds since the epoch.
+    import ntptime
+    print(ntptime.time())
+
+    # Set the platfom's RTC 
+    ntptime.settime()
+
+    # Print the current time
+    import time
+    print(time.gmtime())
+
+
+Functions
+=========
+
+.. function:: time() -> int
+
+    Query the configured NTP server for the current time, and returns that time.
+
+    The returned value is seconds since the Epoch, where the Epoch is as defined
+    in the MicroPython :mod:`time` module.
+
+    Raises an exception if the configured NTP server hostname cannot be resolved.
+
+    Raises :exc:`OSError` if the SNTP request times out.
+
+    Raises an exception if the SNTP response is too short.
+
+.. function:: settime()
+
+    Query the configured NTP server for the current time, and set the platform's
+    clock to that time.
+
+    This sets the clock using :class:`machine.RTC`.
+
+.. data:: host
+    :type: str
+    :value: "pool.ntp.org"
+
+    The hostname of the NTP server to use.
+
+    May be set by applications.
+
+    For example, may be set to an NTP server provided by your ISP, or one that
+    is on the local network.
+
+    For commercial products, you should set this to your assigned NTP hostname,
+    you should not use the default.  You need to contact the NTP Pool to get
+    permission to use their servers, and to get your own NTP hostname assigned.
+    See the NTP Pool's
+    `Information for vendors <https://www.ntppool.org/en/vendors.html>`_
+
+.. data:: timeout
+    :type: float | int
+    :value: 1
+
+    The timeout period for SNTP requests, in seconds.
+
+    May be changed by applications.  The default is 1 second.
