Abstract
Provided is a control device for controlling a Fabry-Perot interference filter having a pair of mirror parts and a pair of driving electrodes. The control device includes: a first driving source that is controlled by using a current as a control parameter, and changes the distance between the pair of mirror parts; a second driving source that is controlled by using a voltage as a control parameter, and changes the distance; and a control unit that controls the first driving source and the second driving source in such a way that the distance is changed by a first driving source in a first region and the distance is changed by the second driving source in at least one part of an region other than the first region when an region including a maximum of the voltage is defined as the first region.
