: We present ARDESIA-16, an X-ray spectrometer based on a monolithic 16-element Silicon Drift Detector (SDD) matrix specifically designed for synchrotron applications. In this work, we describe the main design guidelines which we followed concerning the signal throughput, the energy efficiency, the energy resolution and the overall solid angle covered by detector elements.
