In this video, I demonstrate how to retrieve the NTP (Network Time Protocol) timestamp on the Ai-Thinker A9G GSM/GPS module using MicroPython. This is a crucial step for IoT projects that require precise time synchronization without relying on GPS locks or external RTC modules.
We will walk through the script to connect to the network, query the NTP server, and convert the raw time into a readable human format.
**Key Topics Covered**
Setting up the Ai-Thinker A9G module.
Connecting to the GPRS network.
Checking signal quality.
Synchronizing time with an NTP server.
Converting NTP time to a readable date/time format using MicroPython.
