24LCxx versus 24Cxx

Hi all,
I know this is not SX related, but was wondering if anyone could shed some light here.
What is the difference between a 24LCxx and a 24Cxx serial eeprom, in fuctionality, electrical characteristics, etc. I read through both data sheets and couldn't pick why the difference in nomenclature.
Also searching the web I found a page where they were discussing a project where a 24LC32 would work but not a 24C32, but yet, they didn't mention why. So I guess there is a difference.
Thanks
Christian

    Thanks Beau.

    Is there any document that shows this information? Not·because I didn't trust you, but so that I know where to find this kind of information.

    Thanks again.

    A search through various datasheets lists that information.

    Edit:
    here is an example... look on·the first page
