I don't know the math of such things but did take a stab at it. My idea was doing something similar as we do for high or unlimited precision on digital computers. They usually emulate the higher precision using a series of lower-precision, primitive operations. My thought was that you could probably implement higher precision in analog if you could do a similar emulator with operations acting within the precision common in analog components. All I could guess at, though, since I'm in over my head here.
One other thing I always note is the brain seems to be mostly analog. Look what all it can do which includes memory and high-precision math. So, there's almost certainly some tricks we can use to do something similar with analog. Maybe an analog/digital hybrid. The wafer-scale project on NN's shows the potential esp if it was made 3D w/ a cooling system:
