SUMMARY
The discussion clarifies the differences between H-bridge and half-bridge power inverters, emphasizing that while both serve similar functions, they have distinct advantages. An H-bridge provides double the voltage across the primary winding of a transformer, resulting in half the current for the same power input. This characteristic leads to improved efficiency and reduced transformer size when using an H-bridge compared to a half-bridge configuration.
