Nuclear weapons' yield is derived primarily from fission. Thermonuclear weapon's yield is derived mainly from fusion. Thermonuclear weapons are multistage weapons -- x-rays from a nuclear primary trigger are used to trigger ablation in the pusher of the secondary to compress it, which is responsible for the fusion reaction.
A centrifuge is used in the enrichment of uranium for nuclear weapons. It spins at high speeds to separate the isotopes of uranium, with the goal of increasing the concentration of the fissile isotope uranium-235, which is used in nuclear weapons. This process is crucial for creating highly enriched uranium for nuclear bombs.
