Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention relate to a microring resonator control method and apparatus. The method includes: receiving an instruction, where the instruction is used to configure an operating wavelength of a microring resonator; determining whether the operating wavelength of the microring resonator is less than or equal to a center wavelength of a channel spectrum; and when the operating wavelength of the microring resonator is less than or equal to the center wavelength of the channel spectrum, configuring thermode power of the microring resonator based on a spacing between the operating wavelength and a first wavelength; or when the operating wavelength of the microring resonator is greater than the center wavelength of the channel spectrum, configuring thermode power of the microring resonator based on a spacing between the operating wavelength and a second wavelength.
