PCBs for magic amulet
LEDBoard 4x4 HD is an open-source printed circuit board by s-light, from the s-light/LEDBoard_4x4_HD repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 4-layer board of 33 × 13.6 mm with 25 parts on 57 nets, routed with 874 tracks and 120 vias.
It is built around the TLC5957RTQ. Its parts include 4 capacitors, 3 connectors, 1 resistor and 1 IC.
PCB originally designed for magic_amulet,
but now used in magic_crystal

you definitely need a heatsink.
the pcb backside get to >= 60°C very fast without a heatsink!
also remember that one board needs up to 1.2A@5V = 6W

kounocom/Mumo
A compact 13×18mm IMU module featuring the TDK InvenSense ICM-45686 6-axis IMU with integrated 32.768kHz clock and QST QMC6309H 3-axis magnetometer.


It measures 33 × 13.6 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
25 parts, built around the TLC5957RTQ. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
From the s-light/LEDBoard_4x4_HD repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is LEDBoard_4x4_HD.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
