An HTS microwave circuit has two layers formed with metallic film on a substrate. One layer has a first circuit and another layer has a second circuit, the two circuits being coupled to one another. The second circuit has elements that are incompatible with HTS material such as MEMS technology and flip-chip technology. A microwave switch has a first layer that can carry an RF signal and a second layer that has switch elements that are controlled by a DC signal. The RF signal and DC signal are isolated from one another. The switch elements include various technologies including a narrow HTS strip. A single layer HTS microwave switch can also be utilized where the switch element is a narrow HTS line. A method of combing HTS technology with incompatible technologies into one device is provided.
