Based on the spec, the "* 1000" is the clock, in other words this is a
fixed point value relative to the clock:

f_baud = NCO * f_clock / 2^20

The example in the spec (https://docs.opentitan.org/hw/ip/uart/doc/) has
f_clock = 50 MHz, while here it's only 1 kHz.  And the register is only
16 bit, so the above would only allow a baud rate up to 62 (65535 * 1000
/ 2^20).

Should the clock be a property of the device instead?

Thanks,
