What differs, and by how much

Different wording The two terms share 闸 in their simplified forms but are different words. In Taiwan the standard term is 閘流體; on the Mainland it is 晶闸管 - both point at “(electronics) silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR)”.

Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 閘流體、晶閘管 for this concept. The Mainland standard is among them - the difference is which form each side makes the default.

Neither term carries an HSK or TOCFL level in this table - this pair is dictionary-recorded, not syllabus-derived.

Pair source: the OpenCC cross-strait conversion table, which maps each Mainland term to the form used in Taiwan.
