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.
