A microelectronic assembly can include an address bus comprising a plurality of signal conductors each passing sequentially through first, second, third, and fourth connection regions, and first and second microelectronic packages. The first microelectronic package can include first and second microelectronic elements, and the second microelectronic package can include third and fourth microelectronic elements. Each microelectronic element can be electrically coupled to the address bus via the respective connection region. An electrical characteristic between the first and second connection regions can be within a same tolerance of the electrical characteristic between the second and third connection regions.
