+class RTC --- real time clock
+=============================
+
+The RTC is and independent clock that keeps track of the date
+and time.
+
+Example usage::
+
+ rtc = pyb.RTC()
+ rtc.datetime((2014, 5, 1, 4, 13, 0, 0, 0))
+ print(rtc.datetime())
+
+
+Constructors
+------------
+
+.. class:: pyb.RTC()
+
+ Create an RTC object.
+
+
+Methods
+-------
+
+.. method:: rtc.datetime([datetimetuple])
+
+ Get or set the date and time of the RTC.
+
+ With no arguments, this method returns an 8-tuple with the current
+ date and time. With 1 argument (being an 8-tuple) it sets the date
+ and time.
+
+ The 8-tuple has the following format:
+
+ (year, month, day, weekday, hours, minutes, seconds, subseconds)
+
+ ``weekday`` is 1-7 for Monday through Sunday.
+
+ ``subseconds`` counts down from 255 to 0
+
+.. method:: rtc.info()
+
+ Get information about the startup time and reset source.
+
+ - The lower 0xffff are the number of milliseconds the RTC took to
+ start up.
+ - Bit 0x10000 is set if a power-on reset occurred.
+ - Bit 0x20000 is set if an external reset occurred
