A first portion of the hybrid substrate core may have a lower coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) compared to a second portion of the hybrid substrate core. The CTE of the first portion of the hybrid substrate core may be close to the CTE of semiconductor integrated circuit dies mounted to a first side of the package substrate in an assembled semiconductor package. The CTE of the second portion of the hybrid substrate core may be close to the CTE of a supporting substrate, such as a printed circuit board, to which the semiconductor package is mounted. The package substrate may help to balance stress, such as thermally-induced stress, in the semiconductor package, thereby improving package reliability.
