The standard’s primary purpose is to provide a controlled, repeatable set of laboratory tests that simulate real-world environmental stresses. It does address equipment performance requirements (e.g., functionality, reliability, safety functions) — those are defined by the equipment designer, aircraft manufacturer, or other standards (like DO-254 for hardware design). Instead, DO-160G defines:
Examines magnetic fields generated by the equipment itself. Ensures your compass isn't thrown off by the Wi-Fi router.
Avionics must operate from the scorching heat of a desert runway to the freezing cold of the tropopause.
