I have an application to read an rpm in the range of 0-6000 rpm with a resolution of 10 rpm and linearity of 0.1%.



I would say, that it is very hard to get an accuracy better than 1% with any analog method.

Also converting the result to voltage will cause further errors (thermo couple voltages, cable resistance, noise, ground loops and so on).

The only solution can be a micro controller with a crystal as time base and no other R and C components, which decrease the accuracy dramatically.

And also such accurate values must always be send as its digital representation, but never as an analog voltage.
