+//| """Support for individual pulse based protocols
 //|
 //| The `pulseio` module contains classes to provide access to basic pulse IO.
+//| Individual pulses are commonly used in infrared remotes and in DHT
+//| temperature sensors.
 //|
 
+//| .. warning:: PWMOut is moving to `pwmio` and will be removed from `pulseio`
+//|    in CircuitPython 7.
+
 //| All classes change hardware state and should be deinitialized when they
 //| are no longer needed if the program continues after use. To do so, either
 //| call :py:meth:`!deinit` or use a context manager. See
 //| :ref:`lifetime-and-contextmanagers` for more info.
 //|
-//| For example::
-//|
-//|   import pulseio
-//|   import time
-//|   from board import *
-//|
-//|   pwm = pulseio.PWMOut(D13)
-//|   pwm.duty_cycle = 2 ** 15
-//|   time.sleep(0.1)
-//|
-//| This example will initialize the the device, set
-//| :py:data:`~pulseio.PWMOut.duty_cycle`, and then sleep 0.1 seconds.
-//| CircuitPython will automatically turn off the PWM when it resets all
-//| hardware after program completion. Use ``deinit()`` or a ``with`` statement
-//| to do it yourself."""

+//| """Support for PWM based protocols
+//|
+//| The `pwmio` module contains classes to provide access to basic pulse IO.
+//|
+
+//| All classes change hardware state and should be deinitialized when they
+//| are no longer needed if the program continues after use. To do so, either
+//| call :py:meth:`!deinit` or use a context manager. See
+//| :ref:`lifetime-and-contextmanagers` for more info.
+//|
+//| For example::
+//|
+//|   import pwmio
+//|   import time
+//|   from board import *
+//|
+//|   pwm = pwmio.PWMOut(D13)
+//|   pwm.duty_cycle = 2 ** 15
+//|   time.sleep(0.1)
+//|
+//| This example will initialize the the device, set
+//| :py:data:`~pwmio.PWMOut.duty_cycle`, and then sleep 0.1 seconds.
+//| CircuitPython will automatically turn off the PWM when it resets all
+//| hardware after program completion. Use ``deinit()`` or a ``with`` statement
+//| to do it yourself."""
