Driftdown and Letdown difference???

Hi all,

What is the letdown? difference with driftdown?
I know that the driftdown is procedure when you loose one engine, you decrease your speed on your live engine to get the Vmin drag, as consequence a decreasing of lift and a drift down in altitude but what is the let down?

Thanks to all for your lights ;-)
