A stacked and electrically interconnected structure is disclosed. The stacked structure can include a first element comprising a first contact pad and a second element comprising a second contact pad. The first contact pad and the second contact pad can be electrically and mechanically connected to one another by an interface structure. The interface structure can comprise a passive equalization circuit that includes a resistive electrical pathway between the first contact pad and the second contact pad and a capacitive electrical pathway between the first contact pad and the second contact pad. The resistive electrical pathway and the capacitive electrical pathway form an equivalent parallel resistor-capacitor (RC) equalization circuit.
