I am looking into sourcing some of these RGB leds to try, and discovered that there is an even smaller model available.
B36S3RGB is 0.69 x 0.69mm. These are the ones you are using.
While
B36L3RGB is 0.65 x 0.65mm. Have you thought about using these?
I have not studied the datasheets in detail but from a quick glance, apart from the size, they seem to be identical otherwise.
I don't remember exactly but I probably chose the 0.69mm ones because they cost half as much. The 0.04mm difference being pretty negligible. I also have the 0.9mm ones that I use when the classic 0606 are just a bit too big, they are easier to handle.
