I have an uno-shaped Arduino compatible which uses the CH340(G) serial to ttl converter chip and it is connected to an external crystal.

I also have nano shaped compatible which uses the CH340(C) serial to ttl converter chip which has no external crystal although it does have pads ready to accept one.

My question is: Why does the one board's serial chip require a crystal and the other not? is it because they use different CH340 variants? And also why is there the need for the space for an external crystal on the smaller board?
