Meet the CH340
There are a few variants of the CH340. The CH340G requires an external crystal oscillator to function while the CH340C includes a built-in crystal oscillator. However, both function in the same fashion - they convert USB data for a serial UART and vice versa!

The CH340 is also populated on development boards such as the RedBoard Qwiic to upload code using the Arduino IDE.
