effectively the same thing, both obtain their energy from the atomic nucleus. the h-bomb obtains some of it via fusion of small nuclei, an atomic bomb may or may not obtain energy via fusion, both obtain at least some energy via fission of large nuclei.

Did that thoroughly confuse you or did it help?
