    Abstract: Capacitive couplings in a direct-bonded interface for microelectronic devices are provided. In an implementation, a microelectronic device includes a first die and a second die direct-bonded together at a bonding interface, a conductive interconnect between the first die and the second die formed at the bonding interface by a metal-to-metal direct bond, and a capacitive interconnect between the first die and the second die formed at the bonding interface. A direct bonding process creates a direct bond between dielectric surfaces of two dies, a direct bond between respective conductive interconnects of the two dies, and a capacitive coupling between the two dies at the bonding interface. In an implementation, a capacitive coupling of each signal line at the bonding interface comprises a dielectric material forming a capacitor at the bonding interface for each signal line. The capacitive couplings result from the same direct bonding process that creates the conductive interconnects direct-bonded together at the same bonding interface.
